Cyprus edit
The Wikipedia articles on Cyprus and on Europe both state that Cyprus is located in the continent of Europe, but this states that it is in Asia. Clearly this list is controversial and so I have not corrected it, but am instead leaving this note here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.198.136.138 (talk) 16:02, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
What is this edit
What is the point of this article? I don't see why this shouldn't be deleted or moved to a sub-page of a user page or the original page. McLerristarr | Mclay1 01:55, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- The point of this text file may not be encyclopedic, but it is very handy. One of the first two hits on google as of today for the search query "list of countries text file" requests the ability to track your location . The other looks like an automaticly generated website for SEO and spam. 28 Mar 2012 -anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.110.237.254 (talk) 00:13, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Palestine edit
Where this list is claimed to be taken from, the page include Palestine. How can it be added? thanksSchmiegestestor (talk) 09:46, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
Country name edit
Maybe it's good to add the official name instead of the English name following http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49regin.htm. This would for instance mean that Netherlands is not mentioned as Kingdom (which is seldomly used). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.209.113.81 (talk) 11:07, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
