Mistake in rankings

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)

The Chart is Confusing

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)

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

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)

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)

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)

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)

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)

Two Solomon Islands???

Why when sort by name do Timor-Leste and Somalia appear at the top of the list?

It should be Afghanistan 82.14.222.80 (talk) 10:48, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
