Talk:Equation of exchange

message: Isn't this thing called also “Fisher equation”? If so, the name should be mentioned in the article. --Vahagn Petrosyan (talk) 15:19, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fisher equation 

message: The standard units for M, V, P, Q are not presented in the article.  This would be much clearer if they were.  Admittedly, it's been many decades since I took economics.  So, I was having difficulty figuring out the units.  All discussions on MV=PQ, including elsewhere on the internet, refer to V as a velocity, rate, or frequency.  Unfortunately, I could not figure out how V was anything but a constant or multiplier.  This was because I had assumed that M was in units of dollars of money supply per circulation, since no units were supplied for M.  That would make V the quantity of circulations per dollar, which is just a multiplier.  In this (incorrect) way, circulation is the denominator unit in M, and there is no time unit in the denominator for either M or V.  I would suggest supplying the units or perhaps changing some of the wording so that the reader knows that V and Q are per year, or some other unit of time.  E.g., replace "money supply in circulation" with "the money supply".  Replace "average frequency" with "quantity of times per year".  Replace "is an index of real expenditures (on newly produced goods and services.)" with "quantity of goods and services purchased per year".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.37.24.220 (talk) 20:39, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

message: Hey guys,
There is just no trace of any Andrew Naganoff in economic literature, or anywhere beyond pages that are translations of this Wikipedia page for that matter. I also tried cyrillic transliterations etc. It just seems to be a hoax, that will confuse people on the foundations (as the section title goes) of a high importance article.
I'm new here so I didn't take the initiative to delete it myself straight away, but I'd appreciate if someone else looked over my arguments and walked the talk.

Talk:Dino Risi

message: Hello!
There is a big question! Dino Risi has two brothers. A younger, Nelo Risi born in 1920 and Fernando Risi, who stated to be born in 1890. Is that possible, that Dino has a 26 year older brother? Or Fernando is his father? Did Fernando born in 1890 or later? And if he really born in 1890, when did he died? Because he must be dead, because he was living, he would be the oldest person in the world, but Jiroemon Kimura is now the oldest person in the world (born in 1897).
So what is the truth about Fernando Risi? I try to solve this problem for 6-7 years, but I dont find the answer. I hope someone can solve this problem.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.85.54.197 (talk) 10:15, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Mislabeled photo

message: Hi, 
I think that it's a good idea to try and find sources that can be directly cited whenever possible. Stamatopoulos was involved in "Community", but then left the show for various reasons before Season 4. If he's now back with the show (I'm not saying he isn't), then there must be some newspaper, website, trade publication, etc. somewhere that can be used as a source. Someone leaving a popular TV show and then returning in a subsequent season is probably noteworthy enough to be written about. I'm not sure if telling someone to "Just look at any of the show's credits" is appropriate way to verify stuff written on Wikipedia. So, I've re-added the "citation needed" tag, and will continue looking for a source to use here. If anybody one else finds one before I do then please feel free to add a citation and remove the tag. Thanks in advance. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:32, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Price level

message: I wonder whether "price level" is just a synonym for price index or consumer price index. Googling finds 1 730 000 hits for "price level", so the term is in use at least. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:24, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question.  Most of the editors of this article have treated it as such.  But the price level is a more general notion — some presumed purely nominal component of prices.  Those who speak and write of a price level don't necessarily have any actual index in mind, and may cleave to the notion that there is a price level even if shown that no index would always work as a price level ex ante. —SlamDiego←T 09:33, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Price index a synonym 

message: The first string of equations cannot possibly be an assumption, because it is a tautology.
Given any P>0 there is a set p' that makes the tautology true, namely p'=p/P.
To turn it into an assumption we first need to normalize the p' somehow. And even then it is still  a tautology, but at least it defines a unique P.
 So to add actual economic content we need some kind of real economic assumption, e.g. that price ratios are more or less fixed by technology and preferences and endowments. If price ratios are roughly fixed then P takes on real meaning for comparisons over time: extracting P shows that, roughly speaking, nothing real has changed when price levels change. Or else it allows you to detect real changes by looking at scalar changes in p' rather than vector changes in relative prices.
I haven't time to visit sources to see if there is a standard approach, but someone should, since this one is wrong on its face.

Talk:James Daugherty

message: the below request is noted and the text will be incorporated.
"www.tfaoi.com/aa/5aa/5aa363.htm
This information confirms Daugherty's life and work for the PWAP during Roosevelt's administration and suggest place to see his murals. (He was not merely an illustrator of children's books.)"
I am in touch with several Daugherty historians -- eg Rebecca Lawton-- and am developing an updated text for the wikipedia page. Probably this will be finished and entered in early July. most importantly, for anyone reading these notes, Daugherty is notable as:
primarily - An important American modernist artist, working in the mediums of painting, drawing, printmaking, and murals. He was active in the synchronist movement.
Also - Daugherty was also an illustrator, who worked on many children's books, some of which he also authored. Andy and the lion is a well known example.
