The result of the move request was: Moved to Global Innovation Quotient. — ΛΧΣ21 03:13, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
Bloomberg's Global Innovation Index → Global Innovation Quotient (Bloomberg) – This is to be in accordance with the change in name suggested by Wikipedia for Global Innovation Index, see disambiguation (INSEAD) and (BCG). In addition, this product is not called Global Innovation Index, but rather Global Innovation Quotient, as show http://www.bloomberg.com/slideshow/2012-06-12/the-bloomberg-innovation-quotient.html#slide1. Global Innovation Index has been used by the media by mistake. Db492 (talk) 07:35, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose: What's the "(Bloomberg)" for? It doesn't need to be disambiguated from Global Innovation Quotient, no source calls it "Global Innovation Quotient (Bloomberg)", and it seems highly unlikely that a reader would type that into the search box. bobrayner (talk) 20:13, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- Comment - Global Innovation Quotient seems to be the appropriate title, but before we bother moving the page, I'd like to see some evidence the topic is notable in the first place. Huon (talk) 21:35, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- Support a move to Global Innovation Quotient per bobrayner. --BDD (talk) 18:11, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Copyright problem removed[edit]
Prior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. The material was copied from: http://www.bloomberg.com/slideshow/2014-01-22/30-most-innovative-countries.html#slide32. Copied or closely paraphrased material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or published material; such additions will be deleted. Contributors may use copyrighted publications as a source of information, and according to fair use may copy sentences and phrases, provided they are included in quotation marks and referenced properly. The material may also be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Therefore such paraphrased portions must provide their source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with these policies. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 01:43, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- If we follow your logic, we should remove just about any lists like List of countries by population or List of countries by Human Development Index. Going around any article you like and putting a copied and pasted copyright claim is no replacement for dismissing WP:C, which clearly states that " It is not necessary to obtain the permission of a copyright holder before linking to copyrighted material, just as an author of a book does not need permission to cite someone else's work in their bibliography. Likewise, Wikipedia is not restricted to linking only to CC BY-SA or open-source content." Massyparcer (talk) 09:51, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Indeed, Massyparcer, there is no restriction on linking to copyrighted material hosted by the copyright owner. There is however a policy restriction on copying that content into our articles. Much of the text of this page appears to have been copied from [1], which is why I removed it. There may also be a problem with the list, which appears to be creatively compiled, and thus not available for use here, as explained at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Text 2, §4. Please note that this is a very different situation from List of countries by population, which is based on factual data, and is thus without creative content. Both aspects will be reviewed by the admin or copyright clerk who deals with this. That usually happens in 7–10 days; until then, the content should not be edited, nor the template removed. Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:59, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Additionally, List of countries by Human Development Index appears to be published under CC-BY, so is compatible with our reuse policies. CrowCaw 17:08, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
