Talk:Timeline of the Great Recession

Australia
Australia has been in unconfirmed recession (one quarter) for sometime now, but in the last few days it was announced that we've been in recession for two quarters. According to WP Australia is now in recession and thus mentionable in this list, the date being early March. Nick carson (talk) 05:38, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Canada
At this point Canada's just confused whether or not it's still in recession. Henjeng55155 (talk) 18:31, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * There are so many people out of work and the current economic growth is so small that I think we're barely out of the recession. As a Canadian, I know this because my aunt had to go to work last fall because her husband's trucking company fell on hard times. GVnayR (talk) 00:08, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Anybody contributing to this article?
For the past several weeks or so, I have been the only contributor to this article. Why aren't people contributing more information about the recession to this timeline? GVnayR (talk) 17:56, 9 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Already pitched in quite a bit. Have a look at the round of updates to the list. Eug.galeotti (talk) 17:25, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Finland in Recession
Look it up on Google. Henjeng55155 (talk) 02:27, 11 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I already did look up the information and added it to the timeline. However, it looks like we have nearly restored the number of jobs we had in Canada prior to "our little recession." GVnayR (talk) 23:08, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Brainstorming tag
To all potential editors, I just wanted to see if other users on Wikipedia might be able to propose any potential ways to improve this page because there is a wealth of resources for the recession globally, and I think it would be splendid to have this page developed as a summary for global recession, along with other events (such as migration, falls in particular trades, unemployment, etc).

But I was also thinking of creating a world map, using Wikipedia's template (I have no idea how to access it, but it seems to be a template I've seen on many pages around) map to show what countries are currently:
 * still in recession [Red]
 * out of recession [Blue]
 * were not in recession [Green]
 * No data [Grey]
 * (Double-dip recession [Orange or Purple])

It should be easy to find the data to make such a map, as GDP data is available from government sites. As such, some countries probably won't have data, hence "No Data" is suitable for a label.

If you have any other ideas, discuss it here! Eug.galeotti (talk) 14:29, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
