WPI edit

Hello, certainly the WPI is my creation, but I'm not using Wikipedia as instrument of personal promotion. If you make a little review about measurement of power in Wikipedia, this encyclopedia doesn't have any instrument as good as the WPI. I'm a doctor in Social Sciences and the WPI was part of my Doctoral Thesis, then it had the approval of authorized scholars to use it as instrument to measure power. Thanks to Wikipedia, WPI begin to be known around the work. You can find an example with 백준기 of Hanshin University which used the WPI to evaluated the structural position of South Korea and Kazakhstan as you can read: "현재 국제관행상 중견국으로 분류되는 국가들 중 이상의 세 가지 모델에 모두 해당되는 국 가들―예를 들어, ‘World Power Index(WPI)’, ‘National Power Index(NPI)’ 등을 기준으로―도 있으나, Chapnick의 분류를 적용하면, 세 모델 중 하나에 속하더라도 중견국으로 분류된다. 일반적으 로, 유엔 안보리 상임이사국, 공식 핵보유국, G7―일본과 캐나다는 논쟁적임― 등이 강대국 범 주에 포함되고, 그리고 BRICs가 강대국 후보군으로 범주화되는 추세를 감안하면, 그 외 중견국 범위 설정에 있어서 한국은 WPI, NPI 등 일반적 지표 모두에 상위에 랭크되어 있다" (https://www.kiep.go.kr/eng/sub/view.do?bbsId=newsEvent&nttId=188985).


Another reference is this message I received a month ago: "I have prepared my doctorial dissertation and I found that your database about IPM would be the best source to confirm the hypothesis of my thesis" XXXXXXXXXXXX Professor, Cheongju University Republic of Korea


Finally, I have fulfilled all requirements of Wikipedia. If you don't think so, please be more specific on the points that lacks WPI. Delete the WPI of Wikipedia will deprive a lot of students and scholars of an excellent instrument to measure the national power.
