ga review this review is transcluded from talk land value tax ga the edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review ga review see here for criteria it is reasonably well written a prose b mos some comments the lead needs to be considerably longer at least three times the current length more at wp lead the hyphen is for connecting words while the emdash is used as punctuation though the economic effects of land value tax are very important and definitively require their own section i am somewhat concerned with it being the first section i would have preferred to see the first section looking at it from a political implementational aspect rather than it as part of a highly abstract framework as unfortunately is common on many wikipedia articles on economics this article uses a too complex language economic theory is very abstract and even myself with a msc in the field soon in my pocket finds it difficult to understand the matters at hand the use of an unnecessary complex prose makes things even worse the art of writing an encyclop dia is not to get other economists to undestand the matter at hand but to explain it to a lay person at high school level for instance the phrase most taxes distort economic decisions means abosultely nothing to most people the next sentence uses a lot of complex words and introduces many technical terms in the sentance for instance i doubt most people know what 'dissuaded' 'correlation' 'levy' 'fallacious' and 'marginal' means rememerb economists can go elsewhere for an academic description of the topic while our purpose here is to provide information to the masses i would recommend completely rewriting the section do not be concerned if it becomes significantly longer it is much better that more words are used if they can help explain in what country is harrisburg pennsylvania this is not the us wikipedia it is the english language version and is used by very many people from outside the us who do not have the slighest idea where neigher harrisburg nor pennsylvania is always indicate the country unless evident from context 'alegded' should be avoided if there is disagreement state the disagreement terms like 'deadweight' need to be wikilinked even if 'excess burden of taxation' has been linked before when a synonym is used it needs wikilinking since most people associate deadweight with shipping tonnage 'surplus' links to a disambiguation page the history section mixes past and present tense i find most of the quotes very pereferial to the topic it would be a lot better just paraphrasing their meaning in the text never repeat the name of the article in a section header i find that there is a blur between the 'implementation' and the 'land value tax systems' sections they should probably be merged 'land value tax' is never to appear all capitalized except for the 'l' if at the beginning of a sentence it is not a proper noun of course the acrony lvt is capitalized it is factually accurate and verifiable a references b citations to reliable sources c or entire paragraphs are unreferenced there are tags references are references not quotes state where the information was found and if available provide a link do not quote the text even if it is in the public domain some of the references are incomplete all references must have an author or reliable publisher and a link to the top of a web site is insufficient some sources such as 'new jersey land value tax project' 'denmark' are not reliable it is broad in its coverage a major aspects b focused there are expansion tags on the 'pre modern' and 'other countries' section it follows the neutral point of view policy fair representation without bias
