Russia?
[edit]Why isn't Russia included? Sijo Ripa 23:09, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- It's ranked #34 on the European ranking.

Ukraine and Belarus
[edit]Why Ukraine and Belarus aren't included into this chart? These are also European countries! 85.219.129.52 (talk) 10:47, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
Data Source?
[edit]I cannot see a reference for the data, I think it would be a good idea since these kind of figures can be calcualted in many ways. 131.111.109.129 (talk) 11:17, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
"Total GDP world rank"
[edit]I see that what has been put in this column is the GDP PPP world rank. I think that you should at least be more precise and say that it's PPP. This is misleading, quite a few peple might be thinking it's nominal. In any case, you shouldn't be putting PPP at all: nominal is more important! Daniel Montin 08:08, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
BULL
[edit]This article is a bunch of bull nothing is correct except for the last two countries everything else is incorrect Albania should be higher Romania should be lower Bosnia higher...etc Gon4z 01:41, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
- it clearly states its 2005 data. Dont whine update it :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.49.17.64 (talk) 07:23, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Ordering
[edit]The manner in which these numbers are ordered (apart from the IMF data) is highly flawed as they are only ordered by the first digit in the number. So that a country with a GDP of 1,702 comes right before a country with 10,223 instead of one with 2,130. This makes the data very difficult to read. Jameswberk (talk) 07:48, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Move article - change name
[edit]The article title needs to be adapted to contain a specifier to nominal exchange rate. It needs to be clear to the reader whether the figures relate to official exchange rates or PPP. therefore, I propose to move the article to List of European countries by GDP (nominal) per capita.

Turkey
[edit]Turkey must be added as a European country. 19:03 (UTC) 25 December 2009 Zaparojdik —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.173.166.169 (talk)
Turkey a European country? True, it has a toehold in Europe, a leftover from the Ottoman Muslim empire's attempts to conquer Christian Europe, but that hardly makes it European. That toehold hardly makes it geographically or culturally European, even if Turkey is officially secular, as are, for instance, Japan, S Korea, China, Indonesia...
- Dear Anonymous, Wikipedia is not a place for your fanatic religiousness nor racism. If you're so sensitive about geography, you would first remove 100% Asian countries from the map, such as Armenia and Cyprus, before coming to the non-sense toehold discussion. Besides, that so-called toehold is bigger, more populated, economically more powerful and culturally more influential than many European countries. Go ahead and exclude European countries that are smaller than the European part of Turkey, too then, if you are so much obsessed with size! If you're not willing to educate yourself, then better go back to your monastry or church and dedicate the rest of your life to the God (or to your right-wing fanatic ideology, they have similar effects anyway) that distorts your point of view, but don't come trolling here and trying to distort realities! --Bergamut (talk) 01:52, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
It is ridiculous to include Russia (also transcontinental country, partially member of European organizations) and South Cyprus (completely in Asia) but not Turkey in to the list. Turkey's borders spread over Europe and Asia, plus Turkey is a member of all mainstream European economical, political, cultural, educational, sportive etc. organizations. Even the historical ancient settlement "Europa" is inside Turkey. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:1811:3380:8200:1815:6172:26A3:731F (talk) 14:22, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
New colours
[edit]Isuggest to differenciate colours. The system below 10 000, then 10-20 000 and above seems to be ridiculous! Compare Portugal or ermany to Norway, Switzerland, Lichtenstein or Luxembourg (over 100 000 for the two last ones!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.40.254.216 (talk) 02:38, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
Agree - would be helpful to have 10 000 bands on the key — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.150.125.90 (talk) 12:39, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
No little squares to sort table in descending order?
[edit]It says "Note: To sort the table in descending order, click on the little square next to the column you wish sorted four times." but I don't see any little squares? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.118.182.209 (talk) 08:31, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
The data is really not correct!!
[edit]I suggest we add this data,it's more up to date http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD?order=wbapi_data_value_2013+wbapi_data_value+wbapi_data_value-last&sort=asc — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robert.stefan.m (talk • contribs) 23:21, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
scripts for updating data
[edit]shell script available for updating the map, and ruby script available for updating the table here:
https://github.com/HLLNSTN/wikipedia-european-stats-map
all that's needed is a copy and paste from the world bank website to a plain text editor, and a few tweaks to the colour coding ranges in the map script. Tetriminos (talk) 10:49, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
EUR and not USD
[edit]Can I change this data to EUR? Nonsense using USD where a huge portion of such countries have a common currency. João Pimentel Ferreira 19:17, 29 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joao.pimentel.ferreira (talk • contribs)
