- There is not enough info given in the description of the problem to make an intelligent judgement. In general, it is OK and not a WP:NOR violation to convert numberical results into percentages. However, comparison tables etc are more tricky things. For example, it is unclear from the description of the problem is the sizes of the chihuahua populations examined by diffent sources quoted here were comparable, or if the information about the size samples used is even available, when and where the studies were conducted, how reliable the sources are, etc. All in all, in a situation like that it is better to cite the results exactly as they are given by the sources, rather than giving comparison tables. For the last study one could say that "5893 chihuahuas were examined, and 3482 or 59% were found to be black". Nsk92 (talk) 20:34, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- RunOff needs to go to admin school, our policies are not just for newbies. The colour of the dogs may be getting undue treatment here as well. Keep it concise, in context and move on. -- Banjeboi 11:10, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
