Median salaries
I'm considering to add a table of median (rather than arithmetic mean) incomes as well. Would it fit in this article, or should I create a new one? I believe it belongs here, as median is a type of average as well. Rouen DS (talk) 12:16, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

Using 2021 PPP rates com 2022 data seems completely useless
As 2022 inflation rates are skyrocketing, using 2021 PPP multipliers on 2022 data makes comparisons impossible.
I propose that until 2022 PPP rates are available, any PPP driven info to be limited to 2021 data.Tafinho (talk) 12:35, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

Change Spanish Gross average monthly salary from 2,648 euro to 2,007 euro (from labor cost to wage cost). Currently, the provided salary is labor cost (not wage cost / gross salary), which is inconsistent with other countries. E.g. Germany and Poland include in their data wage cost / gross salary. Then net average salary should be updated as well.

Not done: The data you provided is the latest average gross wage, while the article uses data from 1998~2018. Aaron Liu (talk) 14:09, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
- Following [99] which is a reference to the average gross salary for Spain provided in the article, I see that your data are still wrong. We could calculate the average gross salary for 2019 as you suggest.
- For the latest provided data in [99], ie. 2019, the average gross salary for Spain is 21682,02 euro/year, i.e. 1806.83 euro/month gross for women and 26934,38 euro/year, i.e. 2244.53 euro/month gross for men. https://www.ine.es/jaxiT3/Datos.htm?t=10882
- Change the Spanish gross average monthly salary from 2,350 euro to 2,007 euro (data for 2022, latest) or 2,350 euro to (1806.83+2244.53)/2 = 2025.68 euro (mean over genders) (data for 2019, based on the current reference in the article [99]). Then the average net salary should be updated as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ma0pla (talk • contribs) 05:48, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
- No numbers and statistics from the reference [99] for the gross average salary do give you 2,350 euro (or even 2,648 euro, as it was before). Even if you include only men salaries (and ignore women) or choose maximum salaries from 1998-2019. It is impossible to provide such a high gross salary for Spain based on these data. And I think you do not understand these data (for Germany or Poland there are provided the gross salaries), so please give a chance to correct the article by a person that understands the problem I have pointed out. There are plenty of references that the gross salary for Spain is around 2000 euro, e.g. https://www.enterat.com/actualidad/salario-medio-espana.php
- The reason for the disproportion is probably a lower number of working hours per week. Spanish people work on average about 36h per week, while 2,350 euros probably refers to 40h. But taking into account full-time job only, for Germany there should be reported 4160*(40/35)=4754 euros in the article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Ma0pla (talk • contribs) 17:38, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

UK Data on salaries
Somebody keeps changing UK salary data to Average Weekly Earnings (EARN01 AWE) instead of Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (EARN02 ASHE) which is incorrect. The article headline clearly states Average (mean) salaries for Full-Time employees. Sources for other countries such as Germany and Poland clearly say full-time employees.
EARN01 AWE (the previous source) very clearly states no distinction is made between part-time and full-time employees, zero hour contracts, informal employees etc.
The lower number of 611 a week (as of today) should not be used as it is an average across all employees, as opposed to the higher number of 728 per week (as of today) which is full-time employees only. RevolutionizeSeven (talk) 18:56, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Dispute, serbian average net salary is not €727
I don't know how the editor came up with that number, even his reference says differently.

The "average monthly wage" data for Serbia is incorrect, both in terms of net wage and gross wage. According to today's Statistical Office announcement, the average gross wage in November in Serbia was 108001 RSD (920 EUR) and in net terms (after taxes and social contributions) it was 78326 RSD (667 EUR).

Done, but I've used the cited euro conversion rate instead of the conversions you provided. I would also appreciate it if you could double check my PPP conversion for the net monthly wage, 1,848. small jars tc17:44, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
Net salary data for Serbia as of Q4-2022
The 'Net average monthly salary' lists a value of 727 euro for Serbia, whereas the table beneath lists a value of 665 euro. They can't both be right -- I'd allow the table to take precedence as the number there has a source. Toucanmax (talk) 21:06, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

- Actually data for Serbia is from its national statistics office. And average pay is €642 net, https://publikacije.stat.gov.rs/G2022/HTML/G20221353.html , naturally if this individual knows better than the national statistics office and government of Serbia, be my guest. IMF data are estimates and never accurate, they tend to be accurate with in 10% margin. EU Stats which publishes data for almost all of Europe is far more accurate and relevant here. IMF data normally has mid-year correction in May and year end estimates, year end estimates often gives more rosier economic assessment. 81.78.116.26 (talk) 19:04, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Finland Gross vs Net salary
Based on reference https://relocate.me/net-pay-calculators/finland has been used for calculating net salary in Finland based on gross wage. In the article 3315€ has been used as gross wage and 2035€ as net wage. Gross wage seems to be correct. However net wage is wrong. Based tax payer association (https://www.veronmaksajat.fi/tutkimus-ja-tilastot/tuloverot/palkansaajan-veroprosentit/#d6201a07) the actual tax percentage for this income bracket is about 26,0%. This includes income tax, municipal tax, church tax, broadcasting service tax, health "insurance", employee pension cost, unemployment "insurance"). Based on this data we get 3315*(1-0,26)=2453,1€ that is totally different than 2035€. So, if https://relocate.me/net-pay-calculators has been calculating all net wages there is risk that all data is wrong. 151.105.40.39 (talk) 06:32, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Add back list of European countries by median wage
As it stands now the only lists are those of "average" or mean wages, which as the article acknowledges, are heavily right skewed. Median data is much more realistic in terms of describing what the typical person in each country actually earns.
Hopefully this wasn't deleted in an attempt to make all of these countries appear richer to the average person who may not understand the distinction between "average" and "median." 50.32.215.28 (talk) 16:27, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- This is an article about AVERAGE WAGES not MEDIAN, for MEDIAN WAGES another Wikipedia Page should be created weather it's more or less accurate. Average and Median are 2 distinct mathematical operations, thus the pages in Wikipedia should be distinct. Kornelius111982 (talk) 19:38, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

1. change
to
. This correction is necessary because the net salary is inaccurately calculated here using tax class 3 (Steuerklasse 3), which is applicable only to married individuals, where one person can opt for tax class 3, leading to considerably lower taxes, while the other person is placed in tax class 5, resulting in higher tax deductions. The majority of individuals fall under tax class 1 (Steuerklasse 1), so a gross income of 4625EUR would yield a net income of 2932EUR (source: https://www.brutto-netto-rechner.info/). 2. change
to
. This adjustment is needed because the gross salary for Sweden (€4213) has been inaccurately calculated. Currently, 4213 EUR is equivalent to 46819 SEK. Upon recalculating the gross salary in Sweden to 46819 SEK, the resulting net income is 36432 SEK, which equals 3277 EUR. The correct calculation can be found here: https://rakna.net/berakna/lon-efter-skatt/.

Exchange rate
Due to the long-term decline in the exchange rate of the Czech koruna, the stated amounts are out of date (too high) in the Czech Republic. In Poland, on the other hand, the currency has been strengthening for a long time, when converted, Polish wages should be higher than shown in the maps and the overview table.

Turkey: using unreliable numbeo source and bogus conversion rates

Edit in question
Numbeo source

I have reverted Turkey's data to November of 2022 which is what's listed in the source. Edited exchange rate to mid November as well to have it more accurate given that it changed a lot since then and we don't have updated data on wages. In the same governmental site I only found average wage of entire 2023. JorisLTU (talk) 21:35, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Incorret Russian wages
As of December 2023
December wages with Christmas/end of year bonuses are not representative as they increase sharply and then decrease sharply in January. These fluctuations are one of the reasons why quarterly salaries should be used instead. Please correct the Russian wage to around 720€. Which are the real values of the situation in this country! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kornelius111982 (talk • contribs) 21:57, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
For example in Russia in September 2023 the average wage was 70922 RUB(700EUR), October 73830 RUB (720 EUR), November 73383 RUB (716 EUR), December 103815 RUB (1000 EUR). So over 30 000 RUB of difference (300EUR). That's HUGE! And not Coherent. An average should be calculated: (70922 + 73830 + 73383 + 103815) / 4 = 80 487 RUB (800 EUR)! You have one day to perform the changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kornelius111982 (talk • contribs) 22:20, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
In Russia, according to Rosstat[2], for the year 2023, the average wage is, in RUB (EUR): Jan 2023: 63260; Feb 2023: 65094; Mar 2023: 71334; Apr 2023: 71204; May 2023: 72851; Jun 2023: 76604; Jul 2023: 71419; Aug 2023: 69439; Sep 2023: 70922; Oct 2023: 73830; Nov 2023: 73383; Dec 2023: 103815; Average 2023: 73709 RUB (737 EUR) according to Rosstat.
Completely agree. Checked the data and at least in russia December wages are roughly 40% higher than the yearly average every year, it takes multiple years for yearly average wage to catch up to December. Using monthly data that includes all year's bonuses into a single month would skew the data wildly. JorisLTU (talk) 12:03, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
Data correction for Poland
The Polish currency has greatly strengthened over the past year. The average gross salary (PLN 7.767) converted to EUR is therefore 1,813.53. 62.177.111.116 (talk) 22:18, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
Problematic approach of using monthly wages
Some countries release monthly updates for average wage but using those is problematic given that some countries got highly varying wages mostly in December. December introduces yearly bonuses and are not representative as an average wage figure. Next January's average wage can be as much as 20-25% lower than December and the bonuses are given out for an entire year meaning that they're not December's compensation almost at all, roughly speaking 1/12th of the December bonus is for December. For that reason quarterly wage updates are just more accurate. I just noticed there's already a topic about this on the talk page. JorisLTU (talk) 11:56, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
Turkey: the bogus of Orange-Puppy-2221 and Mavreju edits
Insist on using the archived version from https://web.archive.org/web/20240114171733/https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?country=Turkey
because for now the current version has become an unreliable source, conviently https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?country=Turkey
Even so, the archived version has as avg net monthly 21,702.23 TL for Jan 2024, that in no sensible conversion rate does it reach the 800-1000 euro range that they claim

- Archive is from 14 January 2024, that one euro according to google traded for 32.9 TL then, so 21,702.23 TL is 659 euro 2A02:587:7246:A000:1C45:DDA1:B9C9:C6E8 (talk) 20:49, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- These individuals are getting out of hand :( JorisLTU (talk) 00:47, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
- Even though we talked about this already, I want to clarify that most countries here used Numbeo as a source before too. What seemed to be more bogus that day was using an "average" data that is lower than minimum data.
- Plus, I don't know anything about Orange-Puppy-2221, but all my edits were based on reliable sources (or other Wikipedia articles), I even reverted his/her contributions for not having any source(s). Mavreju (talk) 10:44, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not a nationalistic person, but a realistic one and it's just that writing an average data that is lower than minimum seemed absurd to me so I tried to add every latest source that I can add. I never vandalised or used bogus sources. I even archived/translated my sources for future usages. But anyway, I'm done with this article. Feel free to update as you wish. Mavreju (talk) 10:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- There was official source listed in the page. When updating use the same source and latest data instead of non official sources with future (Like Q3 of 2024) data. JorisLTU (talk) 08:56, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- There was Numbeo source long before I added it and there was never a Q3 of 2024 in my sources. Please get your facts straight.
- I've been an editor for 12 years. I don't remember but I could've made a typo and if I ever made a typo, I would immediately revert it.
- Saying average data being lower than minimum is normal does not suddenly become normal when you say it many times. Like I said, I'm done with this article. Set it to €1 if you wish. Mavreju (talk) 09:24, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
