Keep A lot of articles like this exist Category:Gross state product, they are encyclopedic. The World Bank is a reliable source for information. Dream Focus 16:44, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and please close it immediately as this is an invalid application of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. We also have similar articles for many other countries such like the United States, China, Germany, Switzerland, etc. They synthesise information to produce something of encyclopedic interest in a similar way as the list of lakes by area does.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 21:06, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per above. No reason to delete, but can someone please explain why the GDP per capita is compared with other countries? Does this add anything? I believe it should be removed. Thanks, Willbb234^Talk (please {{ping}} me in replies) 21:20, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Willbb234: The comparison seems to appear in the lists for European countries but not in those for non-European ones, which might be a result of the application of some manual of style to Europe-related articles. Anyway, the column is not misleading and illustratively explains where a region stands compared to other countries.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 07:39, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the comparisons are particularly helpful, especially for the smaller regions, whose numbers are inflated by fossil fuel and mining industries and very low population density. An export-heavy monopolised industry generating big profits for out-of-state investors in a region with low wages, low property prices and low costs of living is hardly comparable to an affluent sovereign country with a balanced economy and low relative poverty.

Delete. Where these data for federal subjects of Russia came from? I do not see them in sources currently cited on the page. Note that the page was created by an indefinitely blocked contributor. These data look like an outright disinformation. For example, Chechnya receives huge amounts of federal money. Are they counted here? Probably not.

Keep per WP:RS & WP:NEXIST Wm335td (talk) 16:57, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
