European Union
Obviously not a country. If we include it, we need to be consistent and include other intragovernmental bodies. Discussion ongoing at Talk:List of countries by population. DSuser 12:34, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Obviously a special case, thus meritting inclusion. — Nightstallion 14:00, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

EU in lists
DSuser and I have drafted a complete analysis of why it would be a good or a bad idea to include the EU in lists of countries in some form (either directly in the list or as a special note outside the list). We'd kindly invite all editors who are interested in the EU and/or lists of countries to take a look at Talk:European Union/inclusion in lists of countries, read all of the arguments presented and then state their opinion on what a sensible compromise might look like. Thanks! — Nightstallion 09:14, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
