A page you started has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Idea networking, Metcalm!

Wikipedia editor Jasper Deng just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Concept driven strategy does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! ukexpat (talk) 15:25, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

respect for the reader
You wrote: The profit model is the linear, deterministic algebraic model used implicitly by most cost accountants. Starting with, profit equals sales minus costs, it provides a structure for modeling cost elements such as materials, losses, multi-products, learning, depreciation etc. It provides a mutable conceptual base for spreadsheet modelers.

The basic model is


 * $$ \pi = pq - [Fn-wq] \, $$

where


 * $\pi$ is ...
 * p is ...
 * n is ...
 * w is ...
 * q is ...

except that you did not include the word "where" nor what follows it.

How is anyone supposed to understand what the model is saying without that information? What's the point of writing down a mathematical formula if the reader is not expected to understand it? Michael Hardy (talk) 19:18, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
