Articles for deletionThis article was nominated for deletion on 15 December 2012 (UTC). The result of the discussion was redirect to Tragedy of the commons.

What do the RS say?

The reliable sources do not support the redirect to tragedy of the commons. The only reason that this entry redirects to TOC is because two Value Destroying Editors (VDEs), Rubin and Rich, have absolutely no interest in reading RS. For proof of this fact please read this discussion on the TOC talk page. --Xerographica (talk) 20:06, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

I think rent-seeking would be a more appropriate redirect. ToC is sort of related but one has to make a couple intermediate steps in the argument to link the two.Volunteer Marek 06:09, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

You're correct. But it's also discussed in public choice under the first section on special interests. Here's the background story... User_talk:Bwilkins#Concentrated_benefits_and_diffuse_costs --Xerographica (talk) 06:17, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
Well, I agree with N2E in that discussion. There's something here but it needs to be more precise, have reliable secondary sources, and not be just a quote farm.Volunteer Marek 06:32, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
