User talk:M Tracy Hunter

Hi there, Tracy Hunter!

Many thanks for uploading an up-to date version of the Income-Gini-Coefficient-Map!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_income_equality#mediaviewer/File:2014_Gini_Index_World_Map,_income_inequality_distribution_by_country_per_World_Bank.svg

Unfortunately though, it contains a major mistake: Germany is coloured in red (high GINI), while according to the source it has a coefficient of only 0.28 (quite low)...I was very surprised when I saw that map :-)

Could you please update it? It would be much more work for me to completely redo the map and I guess you still have a version of the graphics file that you can edit....

Many thanks for your commitment! --93.217.187.45 15:54, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Done. M Tracy Hunter (talk) 17:54, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the update. According to the same source the updated value of Germany is actually 0.31 (http://wdi.worldbank.org/table/2.9), so a light green would be right, if you like to correct it. --85.176.145.56 00:50, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

incorrect translation of data between graph forms

Cross-posting this from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_talk:Total_and_farmers_suicide_rate_per_100000_in_India,_time_trend.png

Hi. I just read through the original study from which you derived this graph. I think you may have misinterpreted the data in a big way. The original graph in Gruèrea & Sengupta (2011) is Figure 1, which shows the cumulative number of suicides (~100k for all of India, ~20k for farmers), not the rate of suicide per 100,000 people-year. It appears that you simply divided both the 100k and 20k numbers by the population of India and multiplied by 100k to get the rates in your graph. This is not a correct method. When finding the rate of death in a subpopulation, such as for farmers, you would divide by the total number of farmers. For the year 2011 this was estimated (by Times of India) to be 262 million: cultivators (118 million) and ag laborers (144 million). Gruèrea & Sengupta (2011) do not distinguish between cultivators and ag labor, and do not give a total occupation population for the subgroup that they are studying -- which is rather careless of them to leave that out. Regardless, to make your graph, you should have divided the ~20k farmer suicide number by either 262 million or 118 million and then multiplied by 100k. That would yield, respectively, a rate of ~8 suicides per 100k cultivators and ag laborers, or ~17 suicides per 100k cultivators only. As you can see, there are multiple sources of error and ambiguity at play here, but we can be sure that farmer suicides in India are at least 8 if not 17 per 100k, and not below 2 per 100k, as your chart suggests.

Here's a link to the study: http://sap.einaudi.cornell.edu/system/files/Suicides%20Bt%20cotton%20JDS%20great.pdf

Percent population in each nation World Map - Judaism

Hi Tracy, I love your work and have used the Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic and Christianity maps in a book on world religions for a client.

Now I'm looking for a map on the Hebrew faith, which I would have expected you to have also created. However, none of the key words I've used come up with anything: Hebrew, Judaism, Jew(ish). Am I missing something or is there no such map?

Hi Tracy

Could you edit the graph so that the x-axis is proportional? Right now the years 0 Ad to 1700 A.D. is narrower than 1700 A.D to 2003 A.D. This presents a misleading historical graph. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sandeepina (talk • contribs) 00:28, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

Update to maps you made

Hello! I love your work visualizing with maps, it's very helpful for us visual learners! I really appreciate it. I am messaging because two of your maps relating to religion, specifically Islam and Christianity need some updates. We have a new report from Pew in June 2025. I have attached the maps below as well as the Pew update. If you have time, we'd love if you could update the maps!
