Hi there,

Just wanted to check, how to agree on a neutral version of the artcile on Steve Keen. I think the article is OK, the way it is now, except for the second paragraph. My suggesttions:

1. This part: "A "proof" can be found here: http://www.debunking-economics.com/Size/mc_eq_p.htm" has a wrong link. The correct link is: http://www.debunking-economics.com/Maths/size.htm.


== ] ==
2. That previous link is in fact a (also published in the leading physics journal Physica A). So we should write "A proof can be found ..." and drop the quotation marks around the word proof.

3. Therefore we should also rephrase the following and state, that "Economists still believe that if one firm reduces it's quantity total supply will fall". (This is wrong, as is proven above, but I would agree to give this argument.).

4. It is actually the work from Eiteman & Guthrie, not Alan Blinder, which established the 89%-result for real firms, so we should replace Alan Blinder with the fully referenced article of Eiteman & Guthrie (1952).

Aleksander, I will reply here because I don't know where your talk page is. Ok, with regards to changing the relevant links, it is of course an improvement (in regards to 1. and 2.) In particular referencing Eiteman & Guthrie rather than Blinder - though if I remember correctly Blinder also did empirical work on the subject matter though I don't know if he is the one actually cited by Keen. However, as far as this "proof" goes... well, it is a "proof" but it is a wrong proof. A good analogy would be with someone who claims to have provided a "simple proof of Fermat's last theorem" - it looks deceptively correct but it's not. The mistake in the Keen paper is that "price-taking" means "price-taking" hence the second derivative in that equation is zero so it still reduces price equal marginal cost. If you read the Keen paper and look up the reference to Stigler you'll see that what Stigler is actually talking about is a Cournot market not a perfectly competitive market but somehow Keen completly ignores this. The "proof" is just wrong there's no two ways about it. I don't know much about Physica A, it seems to be a Physics and Math journal, which means that while probably quite competent in those fields its editors are probably unfamiliar with economics and so Keen could succesfuly get this sleight-of-hand past them. No serious economic journal (and this is simple math which economists know as well as any Physicist) accepted the paper and American Economic Review rejected it with a barely-contained embarrasment (that someone would actually think of submitting this nonsense) - the referee review used to be on Keen's site but he took it down. So I think "Keen claims to have proven" is much more NPOV than "Keen has proved" (the accurate version would actually be "Keen has mistakenly claimed to have proven"). So #3 is not wrong. Think of integrating a function over an interval. If you increase the value of that function at just one point (ie. just one firm raises its output) the value of the integral (total market output) doesn't change. This is one characterization of a perfectly competitive market. Even if there isn't a continuum of firms, what matters is not that output changes with respect to choices of any one firm but rather that each firm ACTS (ie. the way it carries out its maximization problem, by definition) as if it didn't - because it is so small relative to the whole market.] 01:54, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

== Editor experience invitation ==

Hi Volunteer Marek :) I'm looking to interview people ]. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. ] ] 12:44, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
I believe that we can soon settle the last point of disagreement - the proof on price-taking in the theory of competition. You asserted that, "price-taking means price-taking" so the second derivative should be zero (see your last comment on your talk page). The next assumption in the theory is that: change of output by one firm, does not affect price. Because this is so, the individual demand curve of a firm, p(Q), must be a horizontal line at the market price (price-taking). On the other hand, the market demand curve P(Q) is supposed to be downward sloping. P(Q) is the sum of all the individual p(Q)'s. But since they are all horizontal lines at market price (according to the assumptions), it is impossible for their sum to have a different slope. So the total demand curve (market demand) must be just as flat (slope = 0). But then in the neoclassical proof a downward sloping market demand is still used.


== Thanks for the hat-tip ==
Why does this situation arise? The reason for this is, that the neoclassical theory of perfect competion has inconsisten assumptions, i. e. assumptions which are logically incompatible. That's what the Keen paper in Physica A is arguing. However, the prrof in Physica A is very high level and short, because of the usual restrictions on journal articles. So if you like, you can check out the full argument including proofs here:
A few on the topic from a recent presentation of Prof. Keen at City University of New York.

Reminds you of anything? :/ Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:49, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Lol. Volunteer Marek 19:02, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
Um... I hope my ping at WT:RFA didn't bother you. I didn't mean to remind you of what you went through but I was somewhat angry on your behalf. I didn't really know much about what Icewhiz did before I read your comment months ago and seeing FeydHuxtable write Not sure why several seem to think exceptional editors like Wifione & Icewhiz had malcious intent? Ice used to be a fellow ARS member, he was unusually gentle until he suffered severe provocation. He only sought adminship as a means to fight a certain evil. His play for adminship might have failed, but he simply kept taking things to a new level until his will proved too great for the community to resist. Much as I believe Ice was mistaken in seeing said evil as residing in certain edtiors or being tolerated by Misplaced Pages as a whole, one has to admire his ingenuity & determintation to achieve rightful victory (as he saw it). bothered me. I was hoping that maybe the diff I shared would be like a victim impact statement? But I also didn't want to speak on your behalf because obviously you can do so for yourself (hence the courtesy ping). But again, I didn't mean to remind you what you went through. If you don't want me to ping you about similar situations in the future, I'll respect that. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 14:09, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Editor experience invitation

Hi Volunteer Marek :) I'm looking to interview people here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 12:44, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the hat-tip

It was a pleasant surprise to see your mention of me when completing the editor reflection. I'm impressed that you remember my early forays into privacy protection, and am flattered that they had a positive influence on you. There is a certain irony that, having written some of this stuff more than 15 years ago, my RL name and username are practically used interchangeably within the movement, and I've presented in many public fora under my own name. Wishing you well in the coming year, Risker (talk) 21:33, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

The mention at ANI

can be ignored if you choose. Somebody thought they'd been outed is all. Or you can opine if you like but I just thought I would try to alleviate any christ what now thoughts you might have had. I'd give it a miss if I were you, since he will argue forever, but I didn't want to talk about you behind your back even in passing. Oh speaking of, if you still care about the place we do not name there's a thread about the steward elections; your name came up there but not in a bad way about you either Elinruby (talk) 16:30, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Request for amendment at WP:ARCA about World War II and the history of Jews in Poland

Hello Volunteer Marek,

a request for amendment that affects the 1-way interaction ban with Piotrus and a 1-way interaction ban with Volunteer Marek from the World War II and the history of Jews in Poland case has been made at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment § Amendment request: World War II and the history of Jews in Poland. Your input would be welcome.

Best regards,

Threading

This is unrelated to our back-and-forth, but it is on the same article talk page. I indented and moved your 04:57, 7 July 2024 reply to JDiala because it split their reply to themselves. I hope you don't mind. Link for review. If you revert, I won't contest it. While I'm here, I struck the DE comment and the explanation is available with my 06:15, 7 July 2024 reply. Carry on, Mr rnddude (talk) 06:31, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Utsa Patnaik

Hello VolunteerMarek. I had a query about the reliability of Utsa Patnaik on the Bengal Famine of 1943 article? I ask because you fully removed her opinion from the body on June 24 because it was apparently fringe, yet another anonymous user on July 1 added a whole paragraph sourced to Patnaik to the lead about inflation even though it's not a summary of the body and with no remaining mention of Patnaik in the body. I think her view deserves some mention in the body but clearly what this anonymous user added is undue and not following Misplaced Pages's guidelines for the lead section. No other scholar even gets named in the lead apart from Patnaik. 185.21.22.198 (talk) 11:22, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Patnaik , Monbiot and Hickel are most certainly fringe by any reasonable definition of fringe. “Comment is free” is not a reliable source. Volunteer Marek 18:49, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Arbitration motions regarding My very best wishes

The Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:

Remedies 5.1 and 5.2 of World War II and the history of Jews in Poland (the topic and interaction bans on My very best wishes, respectively) are repealed.

And it has resolved by another motion that:

My very best wishes' topic ban from World War II in Eastern Europe and the history of Jews in Eastern Europe, imposed under the Eastern Europe contentious topic procedures, is repealed.

For the Arbitration Committee, SilverLocust 💬 06:33, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Discuss this at: Misplaced Pages talk:Arbitration Committee/Noticeboard § Arbitration motions regarding My very best wishes

Arbitration amendment request archived

The request for amendment in which those two motions were proposed has been closed and is archived at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment/Archive 128#Amendment request: World War II and the history of Jews in Poland. The repeal of remedy 5.2 means that the ban on My very best wishes interacting with you has been lifted. SilverLocust 💬 07:30, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
