Updating Figures source

The main source (note 34) is dead and the alternative source is a scribd link which requires a paid account to access. I found an alternative source here: https://web.archive.org/web/20200619214022/https://files.illinoispolicy.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/ubs-pricesandearnings-2015-en.pdf. I used the archive.org version so that it is available forever. Can someone with editing rights on the article edit note 34 with this link? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A469:3278:1:6149:7DC4:64F1:E8BC (talk) 10:26, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Father Sarducci?

This article credits the origin of the index to a 1986 Economist article, but I know that Don Novello did a Father Sarducci sketch about inflation and the cost of a Big Mack, and I'm pretty sure that it was on a TV special that aired before 1986. The problem is that I can't find the sketch or the TV special online. Can someone clarify?RJBowman (talk) 19:59, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 21 December 2023

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

In this sentence:

The relative cost of high-margin products, such as essential pharmaceutical products, or cellular telephony might compare local capacity and willingness to pay, as much as relative currency values.

Please remove the comma after "products" and add one after "telephony". The comma is meant to separate the "such as" clause from the rest of the sentence, but right now it splits the "such as", making it sound like "the relative cost of high-margin products or cellular telephony might..." 123.51.107.94 (talk) 03:48, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done. I went with a comma after "products" and "telephony" and no others. It would probably be fine with no commas at all, but it's a pretty long sentence for that. –CWenger (^ • @) 04:33, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overview - BigMacIndex example

I believe there is a mistake in the notation of the implied exchange rate.

Article states the implied SFR/USD exchange rate is 1.20. It should actually be the implied USD/SFR exchange rate. The same mistake is repeated further down. the article states the actual SFR/USD rate is 0.87. It should actually be the actual USD/SFR.

The economist website clearly states it uses the USD as the base currency against the quote currencies. MarcAndreBergeron (talk) 16:20, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
