I'm a bit suspicious of the fact that the Te Ara source gives population figures for England rather than the whole of the United Kingdom. It seems likely to me that they've made the common mistake of conflating the two. Perhaps we should contact them for clarification? Cordless Larry (talk) 09:11, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Encouraged by Gadfium and Stuartyeates, I finally (!) contacted them. This was the response:
Thank you for your email. I have gone back to our research file for this entry, and tracked down the source, which definitely says England: http://folksong.org.nz/mum/ However, the source does not look entirely reliable on this point to me, and I can see we will have to revisit our entry and make some adjustments!
