Hawaii[edit]

Why is Hawaii not on the list? Both the Oceania and Hawaii articles list it as being a part of Oceania. Cheers, Rai•me 13:17, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

new article[edit]

created new timeline article 2019 in Oceania. this is partially because we did not have individual timeline articles for some countries, eg 2019 in Samoa, 2019 in Tuvalu, 2019 in East Timor, 2019 in Kiribati, 2019 in the Marshall Islands, 2019 in Nauru, etc etc. --Sm8900 (talk) 13:21, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Complete update[edit]

I have gone over every figure in the table and updated it. I have also removed two columns that were not of great interest: absolute growth and doubling time.

I have also changed the map to give more detail, and because it includes all of New Guinea. Per the Caribbean list that includes many territories, I have taken rank numbers away from some regions.

The table is now trim enough to neatly on a single page without losing any important information. Each row is now one line, even in default view. Wizmut (talk) 07:19, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did an update for 2023 and added more detail to the citations. However, the projection for Hawaii is still for 2022. Wizmut (talk) 04:53, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
