Charles Plott and Vernon Smith's work in the Experimental Economics section. Smith won a Nobel-memorial prize in 2002 for being a pioneer of human-subject laboratory experimentation in market economics and in particular demonstrating the success of the competitive equilibrium model, aka The Law of Supply and Demand, which assumes individual rationality in explaining market price patterns and efficiency of market allocation. The 2002 Nobel memorial prize was shared with Kahneman, whose lab work had a different topic -- individuals' departures from rational behavior in Behavioral Economics -- so why mention Kahneman in the list but not Smith?. Charles Plott, who also has numerous publications involving laboratory experiments in economics, together with Vernon Smith co-edited a large volume, The Handbook of Experimental Economics Results, that took about a decade to produce and drew in dozens of contributed chapters from other practitioners across almost every specialty (not simply markets, or game theory, or individual choice but all of these, and more) in which the evolving laboratory methodologies in Economics had been applied. Not mentioned.

specialties are more important or central than others. In truth, many articles shaped these fields. The "unappointed trust" is the idea that we, the editors of the list, become "trustees" who sit in judgement of an entire field and can somehow come to a consensus on important works in an entire field, when we are mostly unqualified to do so and the field is still alive and evolving, so can not be captured by a few interested reviewers or the occasional passing volunteer (an argument I have to credit in part to F. Hayek, 1945, The Use of
Knowledge in Society). The difference between this and factual wikipedia topics is that we are expressing an opinion (which publications are most important; and as a corollary, which careers of living researchers are the most important) rather than a matter of facts or definitions on which there is substantial agreement (what is the Slutsky equation?).

was taught. Second, they decided that all new entries should be raised for debate over a 10 day period on the talk page to determine whether they should be kept or deleted. Most existing entries were debated and several were deleted. This has worked reasonably well although it would be better if more people had participated. It is clear enough that it is not, for these articles, sufficient to allow anyone to add entries, as only very obvious nonsense is likely to be deleted. Each entry needs the consideration of several editors. I urge all interested in this project to look at what the chemists here have done and consider whether something similar or even better can be used on all pages in the project. I am putting this paragraph on all the other talk pages of this project. --

I hope his actions will not prejudice editors against the WikiProject, the members of which are not a clique and do not wish to impose our policies on anyone. However, the project is potentially a good response to all these recent AfDs. Unlike "List of important X", "Bibliography" is a recognized form of list. Contrary to a popular impression, bibliographies do not have to be indiscriminate, or even very different from what you have now. In fact,
847:. This article is not a bibliography. The "List of important publications..." format is well-established. There was no prior discussion on this talk page. If a separate article "Bibliography of economics" is required then it would be very different from this one as the items presently included have been carefully considered and justified. Don't hijack existing articles for other purposes. If a small clique of people want to introduce a new policy on Knowledge they should go about it rather more carefully than this.
