Table needs a new legend

@Abbasi786786 and Guarapiranga: See diff. The legend was removed by Abbasi786786. Edit summary: "Removed now-obsolete legend; Great work on the shading!"

Old legend:

0.0 - 99.9

100.0 - 199.9

200.0 - 399.9

400.0 - 699.9

700.0 - 999.9

1,000.0 +

Could you guys create a new legend? I have no idea what the break points are for the new shading that Guarapiranga added. --Timeshifter (talk) 02:12, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A legend is hardly necessary when all values are stated in each table cell--it's not a choropleth map--but if you find it utterly necessary, you can try copying it from {{Graph:Map}}. — 𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚 (talk) 03:48, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. It is not necessary per our discussion here:

Apparent data error for Idaho

Idaho has exactly 4,000 violent crimes in all years??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.19.100.69 (talk) 20:32, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

smell test

This data does not pass the smell test, and contradicts the actual numbers from the real FBI datasets. Restore access to the real Wikipedia, please. 47.185.14.222 (talk) 05:35, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you provide a link that verifies your claim? Thank you. Wizmut (talk) 06:18, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
