Population
[edit]{{Spain metadata Wikidata}} works by checking if the Wikidata entity linked to the article has a population (P1082) statement dating to 2018 and sourced by an external reference (not imported from Wikimedia project (P143) or similar properties). If the condition is verified, the population figure is displayed. Articles using this template that do not have referenced statements dating to 2018 will appear in a tracking category so that they can be fixed.
