Three different uninvolved editors at WP:RSN have concluded that Joshuaproject.net fails WP:RS: "They should be considered unusable due to a lack of verifiable methodology and recognition for statistical or academic contribution, even when setting aside all questions of advocacy and bias." , "We have no idea where they get their data, it's not part of their primary mission, and there's no significant penalty to them for errors, so I see no reason to consider them as a reliable source for population statistics." , and "I cannot see anything on there about their quality control. For example statistics on India come from 'India - Omid / South Asia engineer'. Not reliable." .
So I am removing the link to Joshua Project and the population figure from there once again. Please put efforts towards finding a reliable source with a population figure. Unfortunately I am not having much luck finding one so far: the Venezuelan census asked about foreign-born population in 2001 but no figure was given for Russia (and anyway this wouldn't include Russian descendants born in Venezuela), I couldn't find anywhere that the 2011 census asks about ethnic background, and from web searches I could only find vague historical information like that 300 families of Russians came to Venezuela in the mid-20th century. Anyone else have better sources? Thanks, 61.10.165.33 (talk) 03:43, 14 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
