Welcome to the Economics WikiProject
[edit]Hi, and welcome to the Economics WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Economics.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Most of our important discussions about the project itself and its related articles take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:
- Expand some economics stubs.
- Pitch in on our current FA drive.
- Assess the quality and importance of unassessed Economics articles.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the members, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! --Patrick (talk) 02:19, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
WikiProject Economics census
[edit]Hello there. Sorry to bother you, but you are (titularly at least) a member of WP:WikiProject Economics, as defined by this category. If you don't know me, I'm a Wikipedia administrator, but an unqualified economist. I enjoy writing about economics, but I'm not very good at it, which is why I would like to support in any way I can the strong body of economists here on Wikipedia. I'm only bothering you because you are probably one of them. Together, I'd like us to establish the future direction of WikiProject Economics, but first, we need to know who we've got to help.
Whatever your area of expertise or level of qualification, if you're interested in helping with the WikiProject (even if only as part of a larger commitment to this wonderful online encyclopedia of ours), would you mind adding your signature to this page? It only takes a second. Thank you.

That looks like the right kind of stuff! Thanks! JohnInDC (talk) 16:09, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for your help and guidance. Though it is never fun to be on the receiving end, I know that vigilence like yours is important for maintaining the value and credibility of Wikipedia. Thanks again. Tobydavid (talk) 17:19, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, well, thank *you* for not blowing me off and for addressing these concerns! The article's much better now and I don't think anyone's going to bother it (except to improve it further). JohnInDC (talk) 01:03, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
