Census 2011[edit]

Hello, I am unable to cite the 2011 official census of India. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Physicallyinorganic (talkcontribs) 10:18, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe Help:Referencing for beginners is of use. 2011 Census of India also cites it a few times, you could use that for reference. Madeline (part of me) 10:49, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at their spamblacklist log, this seems to be another case of someone trying to use www.census2011.co.in as a "official" source for 2011 india census data. If you need census data, cite censusindia.gov.in or some other site that is reliable.
(For those interested, this particular site has been discussed at least here, here, here and probbably elswhere ) Victor Schmidt (talk) 12:00, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Don't remember password[edit]

It's been 9 years. I have my account user A chris80. And I need your help, I don't remember my password. I tried to reset it the password, I use my Username and my email address. But, it didn't send it to me and responding. 100.2.114.167 (talk) 18:10, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you do not remember your password and the reset does not work, your account is unrecoverable. You will need to create a new account and identify it as a successor account. 331dot (talk) 18:14, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
User:A chris80 has not specified an email address so a password reset is not possible. PrimeHunter (talk) 21:25, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
