Economic reforms after the collapse of socialism

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A poorly written essay that gives a cursory synthesis of topics that are covered in depth in several other articles. No new information is presented, and what is given here is completely unsourced. 2 says you, says two 01:27, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately delete &mdash; this article has been covered in depth on other pages such as Decommunization (though that page does not contain an abundance of sources either, and to be honest it doesn't really go into depth). I suggest redirecting this page to that article or whatever other article goes into depth on the subject.  Master&amp;  Expert ( Talk ) 01:47, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, nothing more than a POV essay. Everyking (talk) 02:03, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article lacks focus, and the subject is as Master & Expert points out, covered elsewhere. I also agree with Everyking that the article is a POV essay, and I would add that I object to the term "collapse of socialism", when the system which collapsed is communism. Socialism is a different political standpoint, and while I no longer subscribe to that policy either, it is unfair to equate socialists with communists.
