List of countries by GDP (PPP)[edit]

I am nominating this article because it contains useful data from multiple sources, and is a valuable resource to many. I was surprised that there are no economics related featured lists yet, which is also why i am nominating this particular list.Suicup 02:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comments: I think I would perfer having every country listed and stick the ones without information on them at the end with a dash in the rank and a "No info" in its "GDP (PPP)". This keeps the lists all lined up. Don't do this unless I'm supported by another though. A short explanation on the terms used might be good as well. Need to avoid redundancy between articles of course, but a couple of sentences to where we're not forced to go check the meanings would be nice. --SeizureDog 13:29, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: layout bothers me. There should be one table only and the bottom of the page looks ugly when only CIA factbook has still countries to list. The list should use cite.php instead of {{ref}}. Renata 13:13, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I don't agree with grouping all in one table, that will generate ranking problems. What can be done is listing all the territories in all the 3 tables, and where the info is unavailable, put something saying that. I know it is not a good solution, but grouping is also not that good. Afonso Silva 10:21, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • No, the page is great as it is. It shows clearly that there is multiple sources which calculates GDP with different datas each, so tables should not be merged. And we don't need to make the tables the same lenght, it doesn't affect the aestethics of the page, and the reader will certainly guess that the information is not provided by this source.
