Talk:Economy of Manchester

message: There's a nice little source about the rise, fall and rise of Manchester here. --Jza84 |  Talk   21:34, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Source 

message: There's a lot of selective use of statistics in the recent additions to this page. If you look at the spreadsheet in the footnote at the top of the page both Greater Manchester and Greater Manchester South have under performed compared to the rest of the country over the last decade, and Greater Manchester South is only the largest economy because half of the county has been put together into one huge NUTS3 area.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.41.70.237 (talk) 12:02, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hype 

message: This article seems to have turned into one big advertisement, full of ridiculous spin pasted in from press releases by organisations set up to market the city, most of it put here by Jamie.Taylor92. The claim that "Manchester was again ranked as Britain's best city to live in according to the Economist Intelligence Unit in 2012" looks like it's sourced from a survey that only included London and Manchester, and showed Manchester's liveability to be falling faster than any city in the world apart from Damascus. The source quoted for the claim that Greater Manchester South was the  "fastest growing NUTS3 area outside of London in economic terms" shows that its GVA grew from £33,468 to £34,755 in 2012, an increase of 3.85%, which in fact makes it the 21st fastest growing NUTS3 area after cities such as Stoke on Trent (7.09%), Coventry (6.62%), Portsmouth (5.67%), Nottingham (5.17%), Hull (4.72%), Edinburgh (4.15%) and Wolverhampton (4.12%), not to mention (given that Greater Manchester South isn't actually a city) Medway (6.89%), Sandwell (4.98%), Solihull (4.63%) and East Merseyside (4.06%). All of which are NUTS3 areas. Manchester University is the best university on the country after Oxford and Cambridge says, er, Manchester University. Manchester is a fantastic place to set up a corporate headquarters, according to, er, Manchester City Council. And that's just the first two paragraphs. This article is a disgrace to wikipedia.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alfie1985 (talk • contribs) 21:11, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
