Roemer Model of Political Competition

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

un-referenced political science essay. To be honest I have no clue what this about since there is no introduction to establish context. A google search of the term returned 8 hits. At least 2 hits are from this article. Ridernyc (talk) 05:22, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep with reservations pending a rewrite. I'll admit that the article is a pretty bad example of an encyclopedia article but this theory is cited several times in academic journal papers. I spent some time Googling this and beyond Roemer's book I found several references to this model. I can understand why you nominated this though - the article really doesn't do a very good job of explaining this or why it would matter. EconomicsGuy (talk) 09:41, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep of the 84 GS hits, 60 refer to this model, (the others are in other subjects entirely), but the use seems widespread enough for notability. DGG (talk) 03:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
