Capitalization of the index name?

According to WP:CAPSACRS we don't capitalize a term just because it has an acronym. However, if we consider "economic complexity index" to be a proper name then we would capitalize it. In my opinion, most people who invent a new concept want to capitalize the name to distinguish it, but I don't see a need to do so if there are no old concepts with which it might be confused. I view the term as a common noun phrase and would prefer to use lower case when we spell the name out. That would be in keeping with the article name as it is.

Ok. So far I'll just keep the uppercase for the accronym (ECI). I'll do further research on wether the concept has been coined before. And thanks for the cleanup of the article! Fhumeres (talk) 00:49, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actual ranking

Should the actual ranking not be included? Or at least some top positions? Available from here: http://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/rankings/country/eci/ Gulliveig (talk) 08:48, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article is quite confusing

It feels like the article assumes a quite high level of familiarity with the subject matter. This is unfortunate given there's been increasing media attention around the economic complexity index in recent months.

Any chance someone feels able to do a rewrite? El T (talk) 08:35, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think I will give it a try but it might take a while until I feel comfortable enough to do so. I will have to do quite a bit of reading on the subject. Schweinchen (talk) 16:24, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
