Could all the numbers in the infobox be for the previous year
[edit]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)

Excerpt from poverty in Turkey
[edit]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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
Years in infobox
[edit]I think all the info in the infoxbox should be for 2023 because that would be up to date but not speculative
What do you think? Chidgk1 (talk) 13:52, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Yes I agree per WP: crystal Shadow4dark (talk) 18:43, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Ha ha thanks but I am not a Geordie Chidgk1 (talk) 19:04, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- 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)
- 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)
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)
Please use the English pages from Turkstat and Ministry of Treasury and Finance when available
[edit]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)
Why use IMF figures for GDP not official government figures?
[edit]@88.233.153.183: and anyone else interested Chidgk1 (talk) 09:02, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- 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)
Meaning of ‘peaked’?
[edit]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)
- 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)
Could anyone fix the data section
[edit]IMF data has been updated and It seems the current data page hasn't been updated Pirteappp (talk) 12:39, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
EU Is Not a Country, It should not be represented as one
[edit]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)
- I am not an expert but if you export to an EU country surely the goods can end up anywhere in the EU can’t they? I mean how would you know if your goods ended up in Spain or Portugal for example? Similarly for imports? Chidgk1 (talk) 08:53, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
Why did OECD predict economy will overtake Brazil?
[edit]I am not an expert so I cannot see how the OECD predicted the economy overtaking Brazil between 2030 and 2040 when Brazil has over twice the population of Turkey. Is there a new forecast since Bolsonaro was voted out? Chidgk1 (talk) 09:49, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
Any point in having long-term forecast made before Russian invasion of Ukraine?
[edit]Even if the OECD made forecast on last day of Feb they would not have had enough time to take account of it.
So unless anyone has a newer source I suggest we delete the section as useless because obviously the Turkish economy was greatly affected - not sure exactly how though. Chidgk1 (talk) 09:59, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
