HDI on Ukraine

Please note that all HDI reports contain values from the prior year. So the 2014 report has HDI values for 2013. Further, your change that Ukraine had increased is incorrect. Ukraine held steady at rank 83 between 2012 and 2013 data. See page 21 of http://hdr.undp.org/sites/default/files/hdr14-summary-en.pdf EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 23:57, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

I am also going through each country and updating and standardizing the HDI values and related fields in the infobox. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 00:03, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

How strange... it did change, but the table on p. 21 I mentioned does not indicate it. Wouldn't be the first error. I think WP:CALC would allow for the override of the source. Good catch! EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 03:53, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I've been using a print out of pp. 21-25 from http://hdr.undp.org/sites/default/files/hdr14-summary-en.pdf and scratching off countries as I go. Almost done. Just Africa and a few stragglers I missed. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 04:14, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
