| == A CALL TO ECONOMICS AUTHORS AND EDITORS ==
| |
|
| |
| '''We need much more activity on CZ with social science, and especially economics articles'''. A new author here, Nick Gardner, has made a heroic start with some core Economics articles. We transferred the text from the old article [[Economics]] to a new article [[History of economic thought]] which now requires massive editing to put it in shape. There are also some other articles which need attention. I propose listing articles into several categories, to guide us through the workload.
| |
|
| |
| Please add any articles you would like to nominate for these groupings [and feel free to start work on them too!]
| |
|
| |
|

|
| |
| Below, I also paste a message from Nick, about his recent edits on some core economics articles. We hope that we can put together a really good economics coverage on CZ.--[[User:Martin Baldwin-Edwards|Martin Baldwin-Edwards]] 20:10, 23 September 2007 (CDT)

| |
| ==Possible new articles==
| |
|
| |
| In the course of drafting the "gateway" articles on economics, microeconomics and macroeconomics, I have created links to the following articles, nearly all of which are at present empty. Some of the new articles would, no doubt, link to further articles.
| |
|
| |
| (I have assumed that the list below covers the ground set out in Martin Baldwin-Edwards message above, but I accept that I may be mistaken about that.)
| |
|
| |
| Taking that into account, I should value comments on whether the list is exhaustive, whether any items are superfluous and whether any should be combined or renamed.
| |
|
| |
| *Supply and Demand
| |
| *Welfare Economics
| |
| *International Economics
| |
| *Neoclassical Economics
| |
| *Monetary Economics
| |
| *Endogenous Growth Theory
| |
| *Competition
| |
| *Competition Policy
| |
| *Economic Efficiency
| |
| *General Equilibrium
| |
| *Cost/benefit Analysis
| |
| *The Budgetary "Golden Rule"
| |
| *Public Goods
| |
| *Economic models
| |
| *Social Choice theory
| |
| *Sustainability
| |
| *The Precautionary Principle
| |
| *Patent Law
| |
| *The Austrian School''
| |

| ::Thanks for this list [and all your work!], Nick. This list of non-existing articles should be combined with the list I made above, and also included in the CZ:Core articles page [[CZ:Core_Articles]]. I don't know if you have been there, but it is an attempt to get things moving on CZ. Feel free to amend it, otherwise I will add to the list from your new list above, when I have some free time. --[[User:Martin Baldwin-Edwards|Martin Baldwin-Edwards]] 06:46, 13 October 2007 (CDT)

| ==Proposed Core Articles==
| |
|
| |
| I have amended the CZ: core articles page by substituting for the existing list a combination of the articles mentioned above.
| |
|
| |
| The revised list is as follows. (The allocation of points is tentative.)

| ==Financial Economics==
| |
| This is a plea to authors who are finance professionals to spare a little time to cast a critical eye over the draft article on [[Financial economics]]. It is a branch of economics which is outside my range of professional experience. I am reasonably confident about its factual accuracy, but I am not sure that I have got the balance right.

| ==Banking==
| |
| People wishing to better understand the financial crisis want to know more about banking. I know that among you are authors who are well-informed about that topic. If you are one of them, '''please go to the vacant [[banking]] article and make a start'''. [[User:Nick Gardner|Nick Gardner]] 20:28, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
