Could all the numbers in the infobox be for the previous year

At the moment they range from 2017 to 2023. I think it would make more sense to have them all 2022. What do you think? Chidgk1 ( talk) 11:54, 27 April 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Omnibenevolence: @ Metuboy:I think they should all be for 2023 now - your thoughts? Chidgk1 ( talk) 13:52, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Excerpt from poverty in Turkey

Hello @ Metuboy

Good to see you and @ Omnibenevolence improving this article. But I am curious to know why you removed the excerpt from poverty in Turkey. I think using an excerpt here makes the articles easier to keep up to date in future Chidgk1 ( talk) 13:48, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply

I removed it since the excerpt was extracting only a single line of text and a large image. And the image was overlaping with the topic below. Actually we can keep the excerpt. I already remove the image from the poverty article. Since the text of the image was not mentioned in the article itself. It was not a good practise. Metuboy ( talk) 14:28, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply
You are free to use the excerpt back again. If you think it was a better practise. Metuboy ( talk) 14:36, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply
Yes even though it is only one sentence at the moment I hope in future you or someone else might be interested in expanding the lead of Poverty in Turkey Chidgk1 ( talk) 15:00, 2 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Years in infobox

I think all the info in the infoxbox should be for 2023 because that would be up to date but not speculative

Forecasts aren't meant to be speculative,they reflect the upcoming agenda not guesses 212.253.193.142 ( talk) 00:06, 19 January 2024 (UTC) reply
But some of the figures in the infobox are still at 2017 and 2018 - surely those should be updated to 2022 or 2023 rather than continually changing the 2023 figures to different months in 2024? Chidgk1 ( talk) 15:07, 19 January 2024 (UTC) reply

This is getting silly - how can we know the average monthly salary for 2024 when it is only January - I give up Chidgk1 ( talk) 13:39, 26 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Please use the English pages from Turkstat and Ministry of Treasury and Finance when available

Often they have press releases in English as well as Turkish - for example for the unemployment rate. Using these pages will make it easier for readers to check cites Chidgk1 ( talk) 16:36, 21 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Why use IMF figures for GDP not official government figures?

@ 88.233.153.183: and anyone else interested Chidgk1 ( talk) 09:02, 22 January 2024 (UTC) reply

I guess its because all countries has been edited in wiki according to imf figures it keeps fresh and reliable data Pirteappp ( talk) 12:42, 26 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Meaning of ‘peaked’?

The lead of this article says ‘Turkey's nominal GDP peaked at $1.340 trillion in 2024, and its nominal GDP per capita peaked at $15,368 in the same year.’ but if I wrote something similar in the peak coal article I am sure my change would be reverted by someone saying that a peak year must have at least one lower level year after it.

What do you think ‘peaked’ means? Chidgk1 ( talk) 09:13, 22 January 2024 (UTC) reply

I think the words you are looking for are "all-time high". So it would be "Turkey's nominal GDP reached an all-time high of $1.340 trillion in 2024..." KREOH ( talk) 01:18, 23 January 2024 (UTC) reply

Could anyone fix the data section

IMF data has been updated and It seems the current data page hasn't been updated Pirteappp ( talk) 12:39, 26 April 2024 (UTC) reply

EU Is Not a Country, It should not be represented as one

I have observed that someone has changed trade partner values and combined individual trade partners into a single EU data. This is misleading and unnecessarily ideological. I suggest it to be reverted. Thank you. 212.253.113.156 ( talk) 13:53, 8 June 2024 (UTC) reply
