In the lead section, second sentence, I made an edit on 15 August, pointing out that “those requesting asylum in Europe in 2015” etc. actually refers to ‘those requesting asylum in the European Union in 2015’, since that is what the mentioned ref sources 6(Ayaz) and 8(BBC referring to Frontex which is EU) actually say. Possibly a small number asked asylum in non-EU European coutries but we have no information directly stating that; this Wiki article originated out of political and other concerns (in the EU) about migrants coming to the EU, as is still recognizable in the rest of the lead section which consequently pertains to that EU’s migrant crisis. Therefore, it is a matter of transparency to explicitly state also in the first paragraph of the article’s lead section that ‘Europe’ in this article must generally be understood as ‘European Union’. Now, our colleague Deb reverted that edit on 15 Aug, suggesting that it was ‘minor’ which is misleading, and claiming that my edit attempt was only “ungrammatical” but in its purport apparently correct. If that is so, why does he not constructively repair the grammar of it? But if he actually really holds objections to the tenor of the edit, why does he not honestly tell us so? --Corriebertus (talk) 14:18, 16 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
