Journal of Political Economy

Okay, no problem about the Journal of Political Economy. This was a scholarly periodical than ran for many years as was basically the mouthpiece of the Chicago school of free-market, monetarist thought. It was discontinued shortly after Milton Friedman retired. One reference I can supply to it occurs in Mark Skousen's "The Power of Economic Thinking." There is also a more recent reference in James Surowiecki's more recent "The Wisdom of Crowds." I do not know the page numbers.

Okay. Done. Turns out the journal was not defunct after all! 12:36, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks again for the welcome. Maybe you could help me with something. What do the numbers next to my edits mean? For, example, when on my watchlist I see the "Journal of Political Economy," there is now a "Journal of Political Economy‎; 15:33 . . (+281)" What does the +281 mean? Thanks. Gnossie 04:44, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks again. Gnossie 05:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments in Lar's RfA!

We are here to build an encyclopedia!

Hi Nigel, and thank you for your insightful questions and supportive comments in my request for adminship! With a final tally of (109/5/1), I have been entrusted with adminship. It's been several weeks since the conclusion of the process, so hopefully you've had a chance to see me in action. Please let me know what you think! Thanks again, and I will do everything I can to justify the trust you've placed in me! (whether you're here or not... sorry to see you go... best of luck whereever your travels take you) ++Lar: t/c 03:25, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Adverts: Like The Beatles?... Like LEGO?... In a WikiProject that classifies?... Are you an accountable admin?... Got DYK?...

CSD

The line "The company is one of only a few search firms in the U.S. focused exclusively on management buy-in transactions" sort of asserts asserts notability for me. Realistically I don't remove CSD tags because I disagree- I remove them if I think it's likely that someone else will disagree. --Wafulz 14:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I am G on freenode and I would like the cloak wikipedia/G. Thanks. --NigelJ 07:11, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Sankt Georgen (Freiburg)

Thanks for putting a decent stub tag on the article! I don't think it is db-context, and I will be expanding the article soon. Poeloq 12:49, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

No problem, anything I'm not 100% sure on I don't do, I'm glad you appreciate the work done in stub sorting, I'm assuming I got the sorting correct? --NigelJ 12:54, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, sorting is correct! Poeloq 14:48, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Paul Shockley

Regarding this article (which is now at User:Eep²/Paul_Shockley), I don't understand how you can't see the notability of him, regarding his history with the new age community for the past 20 years or so (854 exact Google hits on "Revelations of Awareness", which is the newsletter he supposedly channelled). Surely he at least falls under Category:Purported spiritual mediums at least... -Eep² 04:42, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

At time of nomination Misplaced Pages:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7 was valid, I also did not feel comfortable with the single reference provided, there was little linking to the page in mainspace as well.

I can't seem to find any references to this specific Paul Shockley in the news (Google News) using 'specific' news terms.
