Corrections

Mistakes happen, and we want to know about them.

How to report a mistake

Write to hello@anthrotempo.com. Please include the address of the page, what you think is wrong and, if you can, a source. You do not need to give your name.

What we do

  1. We check the statement against the dataset or the primary source it comes from.
  2. If it is wrong, we correct it in all six languages.
  3. If the correction changes a number or the meaning of a page, the page says so with the date of the correction.
  4. Changes to the data itself, such as a new United Nations release or an official correction, are listed on the data updates page.

What is not a mistake

Figures for years from 2024 on are projections and will differ from what actually happens. The site updates them when the United Nations publishes a new edition. A different number in another source can also come from a different definition or reference date. We are still happy to explain the difference.
