Language information

Dictionary information and other contexts are kept separate. A statistical territory does not establish the language of a name; a classification does not determine a person's gender.

Usage in statistics

Series differ in coverage and counting units. Values cannot be added together to measure global popularity.

An unspecified position is not treated as first position. Full counting units, methods and qualifications are preserved in the original data.
