Any reason why 'nef' is not capitalized? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.141.193.248 (talk • contribs) 01:45, 23 July 2006.

As you can see on the official website, it's just their style. Picaroon9288 01:49, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My view would be that wikipedia should not emulate the (lack of) capitalisation of the name, any more than we should insist on using the same typeface they do in their logo. It's a proper name and should conventionally be capitalised. I'd be surprised if (for example) the BBC or a major newspaper was to refer to the NEF without using capitals. See e.g. [1]. I won't change it for now in case anyone can persuade me not to! --Casper Gutman 13:18, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd tend to agree that it should be capitalised. The lower-case stuff is a bit pretentious, in my opinion. So I've changed it.Stewart Robertson 11:16, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New Website from New Economics Foundation: onehundredmonths.org

Is this 'notable' enough to stick in the article somewhere? http://onehundredmonths.org/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Benbradley (talk • contribs) 18:27, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Criticisms

Should there be a criticisms section? Or are they so obscure that they haven't even garnered a reaction from mainstream economics? I don't know much about their work but from what I've heard, the majority of professional economists would disagree with their conclusions and methodology. For one, this James Robertson fellow sounds much more like an activist than an academic economist. I really think this page should be tempered with some criticisms, lest people think that they represent mainstream economics. 121.98.84.152 (talk) 12:42, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

you can add one if you find criticism from reliable sources... its a bit difficult to find info about nef from reliable sources (and not self published).--SasiSasi (talk) 17:39, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
