Many of the figures bear no relation whatsoever to the figures given in the cited source. Something is seriously wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.105.132.76 ( talk) 12:21, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
In fact, the whole article is useless. The current account balance is measured in nominal dollars, not in PPP dollars. So the article compares apples to oranges, and resulting figure bears no meaning at all. It results in the 'cheaper' countries' current account brought close to balance than in reality, and exaggerates the deficit/proficit of more expensive ones (because their PPP GDP is bigger/smaller than nomimal GDP, respectively). So it must be recalculated using nominal GDP values, and the results would be vastly different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.228.200.73 ( talk) 18:33, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
A discussion has been started at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Countries/Lists of countries which could affect the inclusion criteria and title of this and other lists of countries. Editors are invited to participate. Pfainuk talk 12:32, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
As noted, the old table and graphic were derrived from faulty methodology, rendering the entire table usless. I've generated data, images, and rebuilt the page. I hope this fresh start works :) We can revert if desired, but I'm not sure why you would. :) --— robbiemuffin page talk 22:13, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
@ GoldRoger487: you recently updated this page with data that included the use of the name "Türkiye" for Turkey. English Wikipedia policy for this country's name is to use the WP:COMMONNAME, which remains "Turkey", regardless of declarations by the Erdoğan government or the United Nations' acceptance of that usage. Since I imagine you used a script to generate those changes, could you please update your script to fix this? — The Anome ( talk) 14:05, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
