Talk:Fear the Boom and Bust

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the article itself seriously addresses a topic of continuing academic, political, and economic interest, e.g, the continuing debate between Keynesian and Austrian School economists. The basic material of the video was written by a notable economist, Russell Roberts (economist). The video itself was produced by an educational outlet viz., EconStories.TV -- a project of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. The video, the follow-on videao, and discussion of the videos was presented to an audience of financial managers and CEOs, politicians, central bankers and Nobel Prize winning economists at The Economist Magazine's Buttonwood Gathering held October 25, 2010. The criteria proposed for this speedy deletion (A7) is incorrect and not applicable, e.g., "This criterion applies only to articles about web content and to articles about people, organizations, and individual animals themselves, not to articles about their books, albums, software, or other creative works. [emphasis added]" In this case the article is about the creative work titled Fear the Boom and Bust itself and is not about the people who produced it other than for background information. &mdash; S.

 * I've added another link and declined speedy. I don't listen to rap - or economics - but I'd heard of this thing. Possibly in one of the stranger bits of BBC Radio 3. Peridon (talk) 10:44, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
