Talk:List of countries by GDP (PPP)

Would be helpful to include EU as a whole
Would be helpful to include EU as a column in the graph and as a row in table (with a footnote to avoid double-counting), or at least as a note in the text. While this is stated to be a list of countries, the EU acts together and showing how the total economy of the EU compares to USA and China (and others - Japan, UK, Russia) would be helpful to readers.

Russia's GDP PPP
According to the latest IMF data, Russia is now the fourth largest economy in terms of PPP GDP. That needs to be updated in the tables. 203.81.240.105 (talk) 14:01, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

World map is totally illegible at a glance
Could we replace the world map with the original version, currently used in 13 other languages' versions of this article?



The original is far more legible without having to zoom in and look at the legend. If you want to know a specific country's GDP, it's listed in the article. The original also better shows the global north-south divide.

I'd happily fix it myself but it's unclear which parts of the article are contentious/restricted. Apfelmaische (talk) 00:45, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

First picture is outdated

 * Assuming this is a reply to my topic. I've gone ahead and updated the colors without changing any of the data. If this is contentious I'll eat my hat. Went with a new color scheme that should be even easier to read? Maybe?

Italics
In the section called Table, there is no need for the first two sentences to be in italics, per MOS:ITALICS. Perhaps someone might change them back to body text. 14.2.193.105 (talk) 11:00, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Inconsistencies between related pages
There are a total of 4 Wikipedia pages related to list of countries by gdp.

List of countries by GDP (nominal),

List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita,

List of countries by GDP (PPP),

List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita.

The problem is that even though all the pages use the data released by the IMF and sort and order the data by that, they treat countries like Taiwan and Kosovo very differently on each page.

On the GDP and PPP per capita pages, Taiwan and Kosovo have a grey background,

while on the GDP per capita and PPP pages, Taiwan and Kosovo have a white background like the other countries.

In former versions of GDP and PPP per capita pages, the criteria was simply "whether or not there is individual IMF data", regardless of whether the region was a country or not, or whether it was not a limited recognition.

In other words, the condition for a grey background and no ranking number to be displayed was. In that version, countries with individual IMF data, such as Taiwan and Kosovo, were properly ranked, and countries without IMF data, such as North Korea and Syria, had a grey background.

To resolve this current strange situation, I would like to make a suggestion.

In all four pages of GDP, GDP per capita, PPP, and PPP per capita, the criteria for not ranking numbering is set to .

This is the same state as the previous version.

No matter what conclusion is reached regarding how to number the rankings in this discussion, I hope that the handling on all four pages will be unified.
