I would appreciate an explicit remark about ranking being given exclusively to the countries that are members of IMF. Having Taiwan, Kosovo, and Palestine on one hand and missing Cuba, Monaco, North Korea, and Lichtenstein on the other is highly confusing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.79.110.116 ( talk) 23:21, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
firstly, taiwan is lacking the GDP per capita for the world bank and UN, while cuba is only lacking the gdp per capita for the IMF.
Secondly, taiwan is part of china, so it would be more reasonable for cuba to be given a number more than taiwan. Thehistorianisaac ( talk) 00:40, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
The map of countries in article "Countries by nominal GDP per capita" should be changed: Poland should have light-green colors, its nominal GDP per capita is higher than 20 000 USD WWA4ever ( talk) 18:46, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
Can change Map colors ? should use different shades of blue as in the page /info/en/?search=List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal) ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aj145 ( talk • contribs) 17:59, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan are the continent of Europe, not Asia, correct it 85.237.234.9 ( talk) 03:52, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
Someone added new column 'median estimate' and in majority of countries just copied old data from 2022. Positions of countries in the table were mixed up. Because of that, the table (for most countries) shows 2022 rankings, not rankings based on 2023 estimates, like before this new mess. 188.33.240.10 ( talk) 12:45, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
The estimate sources are from different year, someone just use the median figure as default ranking, and it cannot be edited too, wish someone can fix it Wenxu98 ( talk) 14:37, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
The sources are from different years and IMF is the most important benchmark used in statistics. On the Wiki page of each country, the GDP is sorted by IMF and the ranking of countries were mixed up, because of this useless median artifice. Where IMF data is missing, to be completed with data from WB or UN. Monaco and Liechtenstein are considered self-governance in the current list and not countries. An administrator to choose whether this median estimate is useful and must be deleted or retained. I remain of the opinion that median estimation is useless, and the ranking according to IMF data is the most important reference. MIHAIL ( talk) 04:12, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
Agree with comments above. Whoever added the "Median Estimates" column, did not notice that the different sources referred to different years. It is a logical error and must be removed. Skartsis ( talk) 10:42, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
Why is Croatia painted in green if their GDP per Capita is about 18k USD? 191.32.135.81 ( talk) 18:07, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Whoever added the "Median Estimates" column just complied older data from 2022 and replaced 2023 data with it. Super confusing, this should be removed. Socialwave597 ( talk) 06:53, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
The IMF webpage now presents the 2024 values. A good chance to upadate this article, and remove the (surprisingly erroneous) "Median Estimate" column. Skartsis ( talk) 14:51, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

SKAG123, I invite you to read this discussion. It seems that we all here disagree concerning the update, so I've already asked for a third opinion. Wikipedia:Third opinion Fiszu2001 ( talk) 11:05, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
Cuba gdp per capita 56K? Is this correct? 187.90.196.29 ( talk) 16:34, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
Hey @ Qplb191, I've reverted your revert. World's GDP (nominal) per capita is projected as 13,870 for 2024, according to IMF. It can be found e.g. here: https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/NGDPDPC@WEO/OEMDC/ADVEC/WEOWORLD Fiszu2001 ( talk) 08:17, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Wrong ranking (as one opens the page), probably left from the "Median Estimate" ranking. Once fixed, logically, it should be according to the first column (IMF). Skartsis ( talk) 18:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
The standards are not clear. It seems that non-sovereign countries and regions should be placed on a gray background, but Monaco and Liechtenstein are both sovereign countries and are also placed on a gray background; Taiwan, Kosovo, and Palestine are not recognized countries, but they are not placed on a gray background. BlackShadowG ( talk) 01:53, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
Why are Monaco and Liechtenstein listed as non-sovereign? User.name.here ( talk) 01:57, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
The status quo had been maintained for a long time, but since March, some people edits have been made to determine whether the countries are sovereign or not, and whether or not to include ranking numbers. These edits have remained unchanged for months. This is not an issue that can be changed based on the opinions of a few people. I propose to keep the state "oldid=1210968136" until the discussion is over. Minchuchui ( talk) 10:06, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
There was consensus a to not include countries that are non IMF members and someone just removed that without getting consensus. 北京555 ( talk) 16:48, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Its not updated. It calculates gep per capita based on outdated population number from 2002. We had a census in 2021. Gdp per capita is over 9,000 for 2023 77.29.133.18 ( talk) 13:33, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Czechia’s gdp per capita is below 30k, so it shouldn’t be green as green is only for 30k to 40k. Kriskowoah ( talk) 19:49, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Self-explanatory. The IMF lists Iran's 2024 GDP per capita at current prices in market exchange rates as $5,310, which was listed under the IMF number on the page as of 26 April.
This was changed by one user today as being $929 for the year 2018 listed without an IMF source. I can't correct this but can another user please do so. 76.53.85.194 ( talk) 00:19, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
The map showing countries' IMF GDP per capita is still based on the 2023 figures, although the table has been updated with the 2024 IMF data. Please could the map be updated. I do not have the technical ability to do it, and in any case, as a new editor, I would not be able to do so as the article is semi-protected. ForestBeachLakes ( talk) 21:40, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Change & update Pakistan's nominal GDP & GDP per capita data 120.89.67.25 ( talk) 18:39, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
There are a total of 4 Wikipedia pages related to list of countries by gdp.
List of countries by GDP (nominal),
List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita,
List of countries by GDP (PPP),
List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita.
The problem is that even though all the pages use the data released by the IMF and sort and order the data by that, they treat countries like Taiwan and Kosovo very differently on each page.
On the GDP and PPP per capita pages, Taiwan and Kosovo have a grey background,
while on the GDP per capita and PPP pages, Taiwan and Kosovo have a white background like the other countries.
In former versions of GDP and PPP per capita pages, the criteria was simply "whether or not there is individual IMF data", regardless of whether the region was a country or not, or whether it was not a limited recognition.
In other words, the condition for a grey background and no ranking number to be displayed was no IMF data . In that version, countries with individual IMF data, such as Taiwan and Kosovo, were properly ranked, and countries without IMF data, such as North Korea and Syria, had a grey background.
To resolve this current strange situation, I would like to make a suggestion.
In all four pages of GDP, GDP per capita, PPP, and PPP per capita, the criteria for not ranking numbering is set to no IMF data .
This is the same state as the previous version.
No matter what conclusion is reached regarding how to number the rankings in this discussion, I hope that the handling on all four pages will be unified.
