Welcome to wikipedia
Thanks for your recent contributions to wikipedia. Just a few things - A survey showing the ideological profile of members of various economic associations is valuable, but if your contribution just notes the existence of the survey without giving any results, it may be better as an external link. Also, wikipedia does not specifically cite sources in the text(as opposed to footnote) (Klein et al., 2012) unless the source itself is the issue in some way - compare other wikipedia articles. Wikipedia maintains a WP:NPOV. So calling Hayek Mises' great student in the article lede is not appropriate. If you're contributing to a section of an article where various assessments of an economist are given, consider WP:WEIGHT - so for instance if you want to cite someone's positive view of Hayek, you need to cite Myrdal's negative view of Hayek, unless you can cite WP:RS evidence to show one view is much more widely held by leading economists than the other. An encylopedia article is not a list of "check out this cool symposium". If you want more people to read the symposium, incorporate it organically into an article, etc, etc. NPalgan2 (talk) 17:16, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

deleting sourced material
Wikipedia is based on citations of scholarly articles. That has never been considered "advertising" or promotions. You need to add new material not remove good information. Rjensen (talk) 05:51, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Putting Econ Journal Watch link into multiple articles
It's not appropriate to insert slight permutations of the same sentence: "Econ Journal Watch provides a survey of XXX's political thinking over the course of his career. " into multiple articles over and over again. Wikipedia is not for to be used for promotional purposes. Please read WP:COI and please refrain from inserting links to Econ Journal Watch.

Please read WP:PROMOTIONAL
User:Erasmusthemoose, you cannot repeatedly insert citations of Econ Journal Watch into wikipedia articles. It is impossible to believe that these edits are made in good faith, so other editors will notice and revert them. If you start a new account, the new account will be noticed and be reverted as well. You are welcome to contribute *productively* to the encyclopedia. NPalgan2 (talk) 09:55, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
