- Wrong European Russia has 110 million people. Undashing (talk) 10:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- And "European Russia" is not a "country fully in Europe" it is merely that portion of Russia that is in Europe. This is basic English. --User:Khajidha (talk) (contributions) 15:12, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

In the intro, where it says “Germany is a country in Central Europe”, please add Western Europe as well (I.e. “Germany is a country in Central and Western Europe”.)The UN Geoscheme classifies it as Western Europe for example and several sources have also mentioned Germany being a part of Western Europe as well as Central. https://books.google.com/books?id=o5flEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA12&dq=un+geoscheme+germany+western+europe&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiE8MqZ1uSIAxXPLkQIHYImGekQ6AF6BAgLEAM https://esa.un.org/MigFlows/Definition%20of%20regions.pdf https://libguides.library.nd.edu/history-western-europe 2600:100C:A209:D108:5102:8999:2820:F757 (talk) 03:20, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
Not done for now: Even though wikipedia itself is not a reliable source, but please do check Eastern Europe and Central Europe on wikipedia to check their definition and political cum geographical extension. also you will find a lot more sources and references about that. kemel49(connect)(contri) 19:28, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
Territory in geography section
editIn the last sentence of the first paragraph of the geography section, Germany's area is mentioned as 357,600 km2 (138,070 sq mi), which is obviously the rounded figure, as opposed to the exact figure given in the infobox. I think both figures should be consistent, preferably using the precise one for both. Also, there's no source for how much of Germany's total area makes up its land and how much its water area, respectively. Maxeto0910 (talk) 18:41, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

In the intro sentence, please add that Germany is a county in Western and Central Europe. Several sources have had Germany grouped as Western Europe. https://esa.un.org/MigFlows/Definition%20of%20regions.pdf https://archive.org/details/politicsinwester00hanc_0 2600:100C:A218:9A7B:E879:81B4:EADF:A345 (talk) 21:38, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

List of Notable Figures
editAdd Albert Einstein and create a list of Notable Figures, due to Germany's long history and significant scientific contributions that are well documented and are not WP:NOR to list. --WikiNerd202224 (talk) 08:56, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- Such lists (and almost all laundry lists) are clutter—pointless at best, infuriating at worst—when included in encyclopedia articles, though. Doesn't List of Germans suffice? Remsense ‥ 论 09:01, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
