Good work on ECI page[edit]

Nice job starting the ECI article. I started a talk page discussion about using lower case for the term. I'll look for your input there. Jojalozzo 00:33, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, thank you for your message.
With respect to changing the article's title, in fact I wouldn't like to do so for two reasons: 1) its name would become unnecessarily long or complex, and 2) the different lists of countries in Wikipedia usually have a sourceless name, implicitly meaning or suggesting that more than one source can be included in them. And that's what happens in some similar GDP articles, like List of countries by GDP (PPP) and List of countries by past and future GDP (nominal) per capita.
Of course, some sources are better known or more prestigious than others, and the IMF World Economic Outlook (WEO) database is probably one of the best sources available on the Internet (besides it is relatively easy to automatically turn into wiki tables by programming specific macros).
I reverted your previous edits because the figures you added to the right of the 2017 IMF column were very different in comparison with the IMF ones. For example, just take a look and compare the 2017 IMF estimate for China with the 2020 Hausmann/Hidalgo figure (14,640 vs 5,962). At first sight it seems that something serious might happen to the Chinese economy by 2020 ;-)
So I just suggest that you add the Hausmann and Hidalgo estimates in a small additional table in the same article, below the IMF 2010-2017 one (It should be easily accessible from its corresponding title or section heading).
One final suggestion related to the List of countries by economic complexity and List of countries by future GDP (based on ECI) estimates: in your free time try to replace the full uppercase names of the countries with lowercase ones (but their initials) inclosed in square brackets (like in “[[United States]]”).Yes, I know it's a boring and relatively tedious thing to do :-(
Another possibility is to use the traditionally preferred ISO 3166 (or even FIFA or IOC) country codes), like in {{USA}}, just like the [[List of countries by future GDP (PPP) estimates) However, please note that it may be dangerous to mix different country codes (for instance, while BRN is the ISO 3166 country code for Brunei, it corresponds to Bahrain according to the IOC).
Regards from the Argentinian city of Bahía Blanca (“White Bay”) :-)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of countries by future GDP (based on ECI) estimates is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of countries by future GDP (based on ECI) estimates until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Dolescum (talk) 08:32, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
