[edit]

Sorry, I chopped the article down a good bit. I didn't notice anything wrong with the substance, but it was mostly taken verbatim from the NYT obituary. CRETOG8(t/c) 21:34, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not a problem, but maybe think about rewriting things a little, instead of removing so much information, or looking for more sources, etc. Rearrange or edit information. It was not mostly taken verbatim, though a few sentences were similar. There were some quoted things etc, and sentences were changed. You almost turned it into a stub again which is not really good for expanding information here. Sources are going to have similar information in the source... that is the point of the sourcing of material.
It is not a stub anymore so probably could lose category on the discussion page. This guy looks to be and have been a fairly large influence on modern economics. Maybe should have a higher priority than low. skip sievert (talk) 23:16, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I restored the templates--feel free to update them. I always have trouble deciding when something switches from a "stub" to a "start". "Low" is the default for biographies in the economics wikiproject--almost all bios are "low" priority. CRETOG8(t/c) 20:33, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
