I tried to import ILO data on unemployment, to write a post on the French riots. Though the ILO has over 200 country and regional entries, the import loaded only 3 countries.

It might be the source data: when I tried to import it into Excel, it treated each line as a single entry. Removing the inverted commas made excel treat it as columnar data, but I think commas in some of the text then stuffed that up.
