Overall:

Hi BirdCities! Thanks for your work on this article! Unfortunately, there are some significant issues with this page for DYK. Most importantly, there are at least three statements in the article that need to be cited; it looks like another editor has marked them for you. I also think this page is a stub and is therefore ineligible to appear. Don't be discouraged though! Should you expand the page fivefold, which looks very doable, it will become eligible again. Best of luck! ThaesOfereode (talk) 15:03, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Quoted Values

This page can't even agree with itself. At the top it states the suicide rate in 2019 was 87.5 per 100k, whereas if we look up 2019 in the Table it states 146.9 per 100k. Which is it?
