== Request for advice on Mises Scholar Ralph Raico == 

 There are genuinely appalling violations of policy littered throughout this walled garden article. Literally all cited material in the article comes from either primary sources or Mises related sources, with the vast majority of material being utterly unsourced, including: the claim that Raico is an "Austrian economist" (when nothing else in the article, including OR, indicates that he is anything but a history professor at Buffalo State); the implication that three of the most eminent professors in the storied history of an elite university (U of Chicago's (Nobel Laureate economists) Hayek, Friedman, and (English Professor) Weaver) worked closely with Raico on what is implied to be an official university journal; that Friedman praised the journal effusively; and so on and so on ad nauseum. There is also an abundance of fan-club style trivia detailing obscure awards and titles ("poet laureate" of "Circle Bastiat"; "lifetime achievement in the cause of liberty"; etc) of Raico's. 

 I'm writing to ask you for advice, because you (unlike me, or the mises institute supporters) are a neutral party who also has particular expertise on AfD. I think the article sorely needs an AfD, since as it stands now a strong case for deletion can be made, and this case deserves a hearing. What say you?
