Welcome to the Economics WikiProject! We are a WikiProject that works on topics related to economics.

What do we do?

Our goal is to build the foremost free-content encyclopedia of economics in the English language by:

  • Creating, improving, and maintaining articles that describe all aspects of economics;
  • Providing a forum for discussion, guidelines and recommendations for editors of economics articles; and
  • Serving as the central point of discussion for all issues related to economics in Wikipedia.

Editing guidelines

When editing, project members should keep in mind the core Wikipedia content policies, Verifiability, No original research and Neutral point of view.

  • Economic theories and viewpoints presented should be supported by reliable sources. Academic and peer-reviewed publications are highly valued and usually the most reliable sources in areas where they are available.
  • Various economic theories and viewpoints should be given due weight in proportion to their prominence in reliable sources.
  • Regarding validity, peripheral or parochial theories should not have their centrality to the discipline misrepresented. We should describe mainstream and majority views as such, and minority views as such.
  • WikiProject Economics/Style guide describes a proposed style for economics articles.
  • WikiProject Economics/Reliable sources and weight gives proposed guidance on obtaining reliable sources and assigning due weight in economics articles.
