Talk:List of European countries by GDP

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Let us settle this 'Turkey in Europe' issue for Wikipedia at large. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Europe list Turkey alongside Armenia Georgia and Azerbaijan. It seems soneone removed it from here.


So, it seems someone removed Turkey from this list based on the comment below. Azarbaijan, Armenia and Georgia all to her east remain though. If this is goping to be a matter of many edits and controversy it is not worth reinserting Turkey into this list, but then we have a consistency problem because Turkey is listed on other lists concerning Europe.


Why is there Turkey on the "List of European countries by GDP", we speak here about Europe, not the EU, Turkey can get part of EU, but never part of europe...


Why there is no Moldova on this list? it is situated between Romania and Ukraine - thus it is a part of Europe... For methodologies of calculation see below.

[edit] additional columns

It would be good to add some additional coumns:

  • GDP purchasing power parity (PPP)
  • GDP per capita in USD
  • GDP per capita in USD-PPP

This list is wrong. Russia's GDP is PPP and other countries GDP are not the same as on either IMF or World Bank lists.

[edit] No Turkey?

So Turkey is not in EU, but officially a candidate country. But Russia is in EU? Also Kazakhistan? LOL!!! Are you armenian or greek? No need to say, you can't be someone else to make this judgement.

[edit] Further Points

  • I have removed the verification box, since the sources are now cited and verifiable.
  • All countries nominally and conventionally considered European (including Turkey, Cyprus, Georgia, Russia etc) SHOULD be included in the list. Debates regarding whether a nation is or is not European are not appropriate to this particular article. Consequently, it should be as inclusive as possible to reflect the views of all.
  • I have added Albania, which was strangely not included in the table.

[edit] Bosnia?

In http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28nominal%29 Bosnia is with 9,425 , on this page it is with a much higher value. Please.
