Date formats

Please refrain from using purely numeric date formats on Wikipedia, as you did on Pound (currency). A date written as 01/02/03 means 1 February 2003 to a European, 2 January 2003 to an American or 3 February 2001 to a Japanese. Rather, use one of the date formats that is standard across Wikipedia: 14 November 2024 for articles on British/European topics, November 14, 2024 for articles on American topics, otherwise just keep it consistent throughout the article. Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers for more information on how to write dates in Wikipedia articles. Thank you. — Smjg (talk) 09:47, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Rank insignia moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Rank insignia, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ~ Amkgp 💬 17:21, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Economic liberalism

why did you revert my edition to economic liberalism? Akg427 (talk) 23:08, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

@Akg427: because the text "Economic liberalism is a political and economic philosophy" has opened the article for a very long time and your insertion of the word 'ideology' was unexplained. The article ideology says "... more recent use treats the term as mainly condemnatory", which makes your edit wp:pov. That probably wasn't your intention but that is its effect. Second, the opening paragraph should summarise the main themes of the body, but nowhere is the concept of ideology raised there. So you would need to to a lot of background reading to find citations to support "ideology" rather than "philosophy". I hope that explains my terse edit note. If you are not satisfied, please use the article talk page to seek consensus for change. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 00:13, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
