File talk:GDP nominal per capita world map IMF figures for year 2006.png

• Where are Canada's Arctic Islands?
• And why is there such a wide gap of $10,000 to $40,000? Canada at almost $40,000 is the same color countries that are just over $10,000?
• Once hitting $10,000, the classes should be: $10,000 to $20,000, $20,000 to $30,000, $30,000 to $40,000, and $40,000 and up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CalgaryWikifan (talk • contribs)

• The map I started out with didn’t had Canada's Arctic Islands (or Svalbard, Novaya Zemlya, Franz Josef Land, Severnaya Zemlya...), it was linked from here), it got deleted though.
• The value boundaries where chosen (in 2004) to have an approximately equal number of countries in each color range. Currently 19% of the countries fall within the 10.000 – 40.000 range. That’s indeed starting to get to big for an 8 bin color division.
• I don’t think a partial combination of quasi logarithmic and linear separation would work well. Your suggestion would create 9 groups for only 25% of the countries, while the other 75% are grouped in 6 bins. A full linear arrangement wouldn't work well either for the lower GDP countries, 30% of the countries alone are already under $1000. But I think we indeed need more groups for the 10.000 – 90.000 range than just 2. --Van helsing 08:44, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• I think the map should be redrawn as a choropleth map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Talbott (talk • contribs)

My map has Canada's Artic Islands (it's been added to the article) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bsrboy (talk • contribs) 21:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is CIA written on Iraq? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.15.108.6 (talk • contribs)

The IMF doesn’t provide the GDP for Iraq, but the CIA world factbook does. Iraq is colored according to the GDP provided by the CIA world factbook. --Van helsing 08:05, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

South Africa's GDP per Capita is $13,300 according to the CIA world Fact book [1] Therefore this figure is incorrect.

Er… you prefer the "GDP - per capita (PPP) value" on a nominal map? --Van helsing 20:29, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't Finland be painted in the dark blue instead of the light blue, as according to the text contest here it has the nominal GDP per capita over 40 000$.

I don't know if it's only been out of date for a few days or maybe a year, but the map doesn't match up with the article (i'm talking about the United Kingdom). Bsrboy (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 02:33, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    This hasn't happened, so I am going to make my own map relating the current data and upload it here. Bsrboy (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 21:40, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply] 

Don't remove my map. Your map is for 2006! The data on here is for 2007! My map uses the data on the article. I'm putting it back. Bsrboy 19:26, 12 March 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bsrboy (talk • contribs)

Why is the southern part of Morocco white? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.112.236.152 (talk) 19:43, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's Western Sahara and it's white, because there is not data for it. Bsrboy 19:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bsrboy (talk • contribs)
