About deletion of text

[edit]

Someone deleted the text that had been posted, on the Bank of England's discovery that the link between money and prices used data that was built on unsolid foundations, denouncing it as "rubbish". This is just plain thoughtless. If this person took the slightest trobule to research recent news sources he would instantly see that this fact has only recently been discovered. If you still feel it to be 'rubbish', please provide fact-based reasoning of this and list it as an alternative point of view. Deleting content with just the description "obviously rubbish" is not helpful. Thanks, Cx--83.105.37.25 17:49, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've searched for the recently identified piece of information that suggests this research was built on unsolid foundations but not yet identified any justification. Can Cx above provide pointers to the recent evidence? Without it I'd argue for removing the sentence. Tglaisyer 00:01, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Per the suggestion above I've searched google for sources suggesting Friedman and Schwartz were "fudging the periods" when prices were controlled and found no reference. As a result I am going to remove the sentence on the basis that without a citation it is not appropriate to include. If the user above has a citation then I would suggest that it is added to this talk page and a proposed wording suggested. Since the money prices link is so central to Schwartz's work and the word 'fudging' suggests weak scholarship I feel that a citation that supports such a critical stance is included. Tglaisyer

Maybe I'm just in a bad mood, but this article seems as if written for a 10th grade history class. Stylistically, I think it could use some work... 71.194.163.223 (talk) 22:19, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are economists now considered scientists for the sake of categories? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.207.121.41 (talk) 06:27, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No - good catch. Changed to "social scientists". Rd232 talk 09:03, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
