This WikiProject focuses on improving articles related to the field of economics.
Goals
- The goal of this project is to provide a forum for discussion of economics articles and topics, and through discussion, provide guidelines for articles related to the field of economics.
- The vision of this project is to improve every economics article substantially so that every article reaches the level of quality of a Featured Article.
- The aspiration of this project is to make Misplaced Pages an authoritative guide to economics.
General guidelines
Project members should keep in mind core Misplaced Pages policies. When editing, as mandated by Verifiability and No original research, we should attribute economic theories and viewpoints presented to reliable, published sources. We should strive to use reliable sources, which according to Sources are peer-reviewed journals and books published in university presses; university-level textbooks; magazines, journals, and books published by respected publishing houses; and mainstream newspapers. The Handbooks in Economics series often provides a definitive reference source.
Following Neutral point of view, all significant economic theories and viewpoints should be presented fairly, and in proportion to their prominence in reliable sources. Heterodox views and views from other fields, such as history and political economy, should not be excluded. However, per Undue weight, theories and viewpoints held by a small minority should not receive as much attention as the majority view, and views held by a tiny minority should not be represented except in articles devoted to those views. Articles on minority economic theories and viewpoints should also make appropriate reference to the majority viewpoint wherever relevant, and must not rewrite content strictly from the perspective of the minority view. According to Giving "equal validity", majority and minority views should be described as such.
