Six most expensive list isn't accurate

In France in mid 2013 Big Mac de-facto costs between 6 and 7 Euros, which is ~$8, however France isn't in the list. I think the ref#20 ("The Big Mac index") is simply missing France. Yurivict (talk) 08:38, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New Report Prices and Earnings

Again, I don't see why the link for the newer report on prices and earnings got deleted, when the old one is on the "further readings" list.

UBS can you please stop trying to move to the top of the article

UBS is trying to put an ad for something of theirs in the first section of the article. This is very confusing. Hundreds of banks, etc, happen to use "variations on" the BMI, and this is of little interest. For some reason Commonwealth and UBS get a free ad on this page. Be sure this is kept in the "variations" section, if at all. If you are from UBS and you try to - yet again - move your advert for UBS up to the lead section, don't do that. 24.42.191.195 (talk) 13:17, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Africa

The Limitations sections states "For example, in Africa McDonald's is only present in Morocco, Egypt and South Africa." but this entry tops the six slowest earned section: "Kenya, Nairobi - 172.6 min".
