The [[Australian Bureau of Statistics]] classifies paganism as an affiliation under which several sub-classifications may optionally be specified. This includes [[animism]], [[nature religion]], [[Neodruidism|Druidism]], [[pantheism]], and Wicca/Witchcraft. As a result, fairly detailed breakdowns of pagan respondents are available.{{efn|{{cite web |title=Australian Census Pagan Dash. |url=https://www.facebook.com/events/204754496209181/ |work=Facebook Public Event |access-date=13 March 2013 |author=Pagan Awareness Network Inc. Australia |location=Australia |year=2011 |quote=The aim is to get Pagans of all persuasions (Wiccan, Druid, Asatru, Hellenic, Egyptian, Heathen etc.) to put themselves on the census form as 'Pagan' or 'Pagan, *your path*'.... Paganism is included in the Australian Standard Classification of Religious Groups (ASCRG), as a separate output category.... The classification structure of this group is: 613 Nature Religions 6130 Nature Religions, nfd (not further defined) 6131 Animism 6132 Druidism 6133 Paganism 6134 Pantheism 6135 Wiccan/Witchcraft 6139 Nature Religions, nec (not elsewhere classified) If a response of Pagan is qualified with additional information such as Druid or Wiccan, this additional information will be used in classifying the response. For example, Pagan Wiccan would be classified as 6135 and Pagan Celtic would be 6133. Pagan alone would be classified as 6133. |archive-date=29 April 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210429032143/https://www.facebook.com/events/204754496209181/ |url-status=live }} }} {|class="wikitable sortable floatleft" !colspan="2"|New Zealander<br />affiliations{{sfn|StatsNZ affiliation|2006}} |- !Groups!!Adherents |- |[[Neodruidism|Druidism]]||192 |- |[[Nature religion]]||4,530 |- |[[Wicca]]||2,082 |- !Total!!6,804 |} In 2006, there were at least 6,804 (0.164%) pagans among New Zealand's population of approximately 4 million.{{sfn|StatsNZ population|2006}} Respondents were given the option to select one or more religious affiliations.{{sfn|StatsNZ affiliation|2006}} {{clear}}
