Hello, the part about religion really makes no sense for me as a Macedonian. In the last census, around 14% declared themselves as “Christian”, not “Other Christian”. Most, virtually all of these are (Macedonian) Orthodox Christians. This is true if you see any other census of the country, where if you add the percentage of “Christian” and “Orthodox Christian”, it gives you the percentage of Orthodox christians (within a margin of error). Why the census reported them as just “Christian” and not specifically Orthodox, I don’t know, but my guess is that people just put down “Christian”, without specifying because in most cases in North Macedonia, Christian means Orthodox. This is especially weird since for the “people whose data is taken from administrative sources” it also says in addendum that most are ethnic Macedonian and religiously Orthodox. Can someone at least change it in the infobox and demographics part to say “Christian”, since “other Christian” is misleading and implies large minorities of other Christian communities (for information, the largest non-orthodox group are Catholic, numbering in the few thousand members, probably less than a percent).
