Frequently asked questions Q1: Are Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Cyprus really in Europe?
A: As definitions of Europe vary, this article attempts to follow Wikipedia's
Neutral point of view policy. That means covering the view that they are in Europe, as well as the view that they are not.
The issue has been raised repeatedly here, extensively in
2002,
2004,
2005,
2006,
2007,
2009, and briefly mentioned in many other discussions. |
This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English.

Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | |||||||||||||

The article says 17.9% of European population is muslim, that would be around 135 million people. The source cited to support this information and also other articles on wikipedia itself (see ‘muslims in Europe’) clearly state that they are around 45 million, so around 6% 151.18.129.5 ( talk) 09:57, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
So far the article does not mention climate change once. How would people feel if I added an excerpt to climate change in Europe to this article, perhaps below the section on "climate"? I think an excerpt is better than new text because this is something that will continually change over time, and would then have to be updated in two places, not just one. Compare also with how it's done for the Africa article. Pinging User:Chidgk1 and User:RCraig09 for comment. EMsmile ( talk) 11:29, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
This article mentions that Russia is a part of Europe but last I checked , it was a part of Asia.If Russia used to be in Europe , then I would have excused this mistake but it was NEVER part of Europe.Any thoughts? 180.151.17.56 ( talk) 12:41, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

The "Name" section reads confusedly, without a proper flow or connection between the various statements. The first paragraph seems to imply, without making the development of meaning clear, that "Europe" derives from "Evros", as a fact. The explanation then restarts with reference to "Europa", with no explanation of how, if at all, this is related to what was previously said. It's all a bit muddled. If there are various theories then the section needs to begin by saying this. There are various theories, which are ... etc. etc. Also, there is a typo "it self" for "itself". 2A00:23C8:7B0C:9A01:7CE5:FD55:FD59:E88 ( talk) 22:45, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
