Sorting by net worth (USD billion) doesn't work
Currently, sorting by net worth doesn't work properly for 2012 and 2013. Sorting by net worth does work properly for 2011, with Gina Rinehart's data value of 9.00 appearing at the top of the data values (when sorted by descending value), where one would expect to see it (albeit below the 'not listed' values, all sixteen of them). In 2012, however, when sorted by net worth, Rinehart's data value of 18.00 appears between David Hains' data value of 2.00 and Kerry Stokes' data value of 1.80. In 2013, when sorted by net worth, Rinehart's data value of 17.00 appears between Lindsay Fox's data value of 1.95 and Kerry Stokes' data value of 2.0. I've looked at the tabulation parameters in the source and can't figure out what's wrong. Perhaps someone who can figure out exactly what is wrong could fix it?

Notability of content vs. notability of list.
This information is clearly notable, but is the Forbes list notable in and of itself? Would it be of more value to the reader to simply have a list of the wealthiest Australians and Cite the Forbes list as a source? This would allow other sources to be included and prevent the work of Forbes defining the material. I would welcome any comment or debate on the matter --Willthewanderer (talk) 14:44, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
