There have been repeated attempts to link to another article in the title of the book at the opening of this article. Per our guideline at MOS:BOLDAVOID, no links belong there. --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:42, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy section

[edit]

There have been multiple attempts to insert a "controversy" section, which is made up of quotes that

  • are unsourced
  • that a Google search showed no reliable source for
  • that do not mention in them the book that is the subject of this article (controversy over how to handle public assets would not be the same as controversy over this book)
  • are not third-party references documenting the existence of controversy, which would show that such controversy is of import.

So due to issues of both relevancy and verifiability, I'm deleting this section. If there are third-party reference covering such controversy to be found, they would make a great base for such a section. --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:53, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

[edit]

One or more persons with “an undisclosed connection to” Stefan Fölster and Dag Detter are editing the articles about these two people, their book The Public Wealth of Nations, and other articles associated with their work. This is an “apparent COI”. The person or persons are using the accounts Hollyeighteen, Sakakawean, Tigerinthesmoke, and Timeforteapet. As a sanction against this person or persons, I shall

  1. Post this notice on the talk pages of the most important affected articles.
  2. Post a notice on WP:COIN.
  3. Delete most of the contents of these articles, since the users mentioned above use Wikipedia to promote two people and their work in clear breach of rules pertaining to COI.

The "Official website" in the external links section has clearly been hijacked and should be deleted. --Nat Gertler (talk) 18:22, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
