I have chosen to concentrate this article on the main issues and leave some topics, that could be included, for treatment in linked articles on (I suggest) currency areas, exchange rates, IMF, World bank, WTO, Bretton Woods. Any comments? Nick Gardner 02:42, 28 January 2008 (CST)


Martin - I am tackling the paragraph on migration with trepidation. I'm convinced that it should be part of the article, but I know little about it. I am counting on you to correct my errors. Nick Gardner 00:57, 31 January 2008 (CST)

Subject to second thoughts and comments as above, I think I have finished this article (but landed someone with a lot more articles in the "see also" list)- Nick Gardner 10:23, 3 February 2008 (CST)

Hayford Pierce - Thank you for your interest. Have you any comments on the text? Nick Gardner 16:55, 5 April 2008 (CDT)

Hi, Nick -- The text is *well* beyond me, I fear! I was just doing a little casual formatting, of the sort I do if I happen onto any given article by clicking on "Recent Changes" or some such. It does look like a v. professional job, however! Hayford Peirce 21:27, 5 April 2008 (CDT)
Yes, it does. Very nice! Nick Gardner 01:03, 6 April 2008 (CDT)

Update

On second thoughts I have withdrawn this article from the "Ready for Approval" list pending the completion of the paragraph on international financial stability. Nick Gardner 05:13, 6 April 2008 (CDT)

I am inclined to believe that the paragraph on international financial stability now says all on that topic that is appropriate for a general article, and that work can shortly begin on a separate article on the current financial crisis. On that basis, I have restored the article on the "Ready for Approval" list. Nick Gardner 05:03, 9 April 2008 (CDT)

I'va made some small changes to the text on migration, and hope that this will not preclude me from approving the article. However, would any other economics editor like to approve it? Martin Baldwin-Edwards 17:32, 11 May 2008 (CDT)

Nick, I'm not sure why you deleted this section? Won't this be expanded in the future and required for cross referencing? Chris Day 15:35, 13 May 2008 (CDT)

Yes, but not as you had done it. Thank you for reminding me - but as elsewhere, the suggestion is helpful, but the execution is unhelpful. See below. Nick Gardner 16:32, 13 May 2008 (CDT)
