The result was   delete. The nominator has a good point that this term is not well defined: there is at least one other "Krugman's Law" floating round the blogosphere. JohnCD (talk) 22:14, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Seems to be a non notable neologism. There are some google search results for "Krugman's Law", but those seem to be exclusively blogs or self-published, and also deal with a great many "Krugman's Law"s, not just this one. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 19:19, 16 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge - Merge to article Paul Krugman. Make a new section "Krugman's Laws", and put this one there.  The nominator's own arguments point to this path.  I do note there may be a problem with "Krugman's Law" versus "Krugman's Laws", but this is for the sources to sort out what the names of the various laws are, and therefor what the name of the section should be.  &mdash;Aladdin Sane (talk) 19:41, 16 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Oh, what will Paul Krugman say tomorrow? Mandsford (talk) 22:27, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Paul_Krugman. I've added the content from this article to his biography in the relevant section. -- B figura (talk) 22:27, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. It is clearly non-notable. Only blogs as sources. The redirect should be put on hold until the discussion on its inclusion into the Paul Krugman article is settled. CronopioFlotante (talk) 08:53, 18 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment - Concur with "redirect should be put on hold" &mdash;Aladdin Sane (talk) 09:06, 18 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. Non-notable neologism. Everything in Krugman's blog posting suggests he introduced this jocularly for the nonce. --Lambiam 01:40, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
