Mistake in rankings

edit

Could there be a mistake in the rankings?

-:Puerto Rico. 5:Kuwait.

That way it makes more sense I think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.117.134.250 (talk) 17:53, 12 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

The Chart is Confusing

edit

What are all these countries in between the numbered rankings that are represented with dashes? I surmise it's because they are not independent nations, but this isn't explained in the text. Kisch (talk) 00:51, 1 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Is there a reason so many country names are not capitalized?

edit

There are so many of non-capitalized that it doesn't seem like a typo. According to MOS:CAPS they should be capitalized, is there a special reason they are not ? WarKosign 12:45, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

I just double-checked the article, and all of the names of countries and territories have initial capitals. Where did you find names in lower case? AuH2ORepublican (talk) 17:39, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
In the list of countries Nation column I see kuwait, nauru, singapore, malta, iceland and many many more. WarKosign 18:14, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
That's weird. I see:
Rank Nation
1 Kuwait
1 Monaco
1 Nauru
1 Singapore
etc.

Sorry, it was a technical glitch on my end. My browser decided for some reason that the page is in French and activated translation to English - converting many country names to lower case in the process. After I turned it off I now see all the country names as they should be. WarKosign 22:03, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
The weirdest part is that your browser translated some of the names into lowercase but not others. One would think that perhaps some country names also are common words in French and thus would be "translated" in lowercase, but Kuwait, Singapore, etc. only exist as proper names that always would be capitalized. I guess that lack of a reasonable explanation is what makes glitches glitches. AuH2ORepublican (talk) 22:24, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Not able to sort

edit

The "number of urban citizens per country" row of the table is not formatted as numbers and it sorts in alphabetical order instead of numerical. Unfortunately I cannot correct this myself. 137.204.150.25 (talk) 09:19, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
