Just in case

I've added additional details on Taylor's academic contributions just in case he wins the Nobel prize in the next couple of weeks.Rinconsoleao (talk) 09:58, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article thus far avoids the biggest national and international issue of Taylor's youth -- the Vietnam War and its draft. How did he manage to remain in grad school (something we all aspired to do!) during the biggest war of his lifetime and the draft related thereto?

Keynesian?

Taylor's has recently objected to the US federal government's Keynesian monetary and fiscal policy (see [1][2]). It seems he's no longer a Keynesian, at least when it comes to the US. Should he still be considered a Keynesian? -Temporal User (Talk) 10:35, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

New Keynesian economics refers to the use of microfounded general equilibrium models with sticky prices or sticky wages. Taylor is one of the leaders of that methodology, so I will put back the classification. It doesn't mean he has to support activist policies under all circumstances.

Dr. Dixon's comment on this article

Dr. Dixon has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:

This looks pretty good to me. Unlike some wikipedia pages of academics, it does not consist of just a list of publications but tells you what he has done and his major contributions. I am not an expert on Taylor, so cannot really comment on how to improve the page (until someone writes a biography, wikipedia would be the only source of information. However, from what I see it all looks correct. The guy shoud have been given a nobel prize, but I guess that would not be a valid thing to put on wikpedia.

We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

Dr. Dixon has published scholarly research which seems to be relevant to this Wikipedia article:

Thanks for the review ExpertIdeasBot. We can leave the prize to the committee. However, I added the reference to the page. Byronmercury (talk) 16:23, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
