What State

I was going to cite the Britannica article (Full article - first 75 words) -- (Concise article - all words), but both articles list Lafia as being the capital of Plateau State, but our article has it as the capital of Nasarawa State. The World Gazetteer entry lists and others list it as Nasarawa State, so my guess is that Britannica is just out of date. -AndrewBuck 01:11, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Our article is correct. Picaroon (Talk) 21:30, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/20110626113456/http://www.nigerianstat.gov.ng:80/nbsapps/Connections/Pop2006.pdf to http://www.nigerianstat.gov.ng/nbsapps/Connections/Pop2006.pdf
