Talk:Kaldor's facts

Proposed merge
The term 'stylized fact' is used for many major statistical regularities in economics. Kaldor's facts are a prominent early example, but they are far from the only ones. So it might be OK to merge 'Kaldor's facts' into the 'Stylized facts' page, but it is definitely wrong to merge 'Stylized facts' into the 'Kaldor's facts' page. Better yet, I would suggest keeping them separate. --Rinconsoleao (talk) 08:33, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

If the term 'stylized fact' is used for many major statistical regularities in economics, someone should put some of them on the "See also" section... About what you said on the merger, I agree. However, I think something should be done, because the information is repeated in both entries and with a different phrasing in both that may change a little the meaning of each of the six Kaldor's facts.

 * I’ve split out the Kaldor details to the Kaldor page, and included some other examples in an “Examples” section, and cross-referenced the pages, which I believe addresses all concerns, so I’ve also removed the {merge} template.
