Talk:Marc Melitz

Edit to Influences

Per MOS Infoboxes, the purpose of an infobox is "to summarize key facts about the article in which it appears". Not explicitly stated here, but well understood in practice is the notion that material in an infobox is deliberately redundant; any item in an infobox should be found, almost always with supporting references, in the main text of the article.

The infobox for an economist mirrors that purpose, but is more explicit: "Entries in influences, opposed, influenced, and contributions should be explained in the main text of one of the articles. Those that are not mentioned in the main text may be deleted."

Based upon these policy reasons, I've removed the two entries in the "influences" field.--SPhilbrickT 00:10, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

New Keynesian?

Does it make sense to include Melitz in the "New Keynesian" table? He's not a macroeconomist, almost none of his papers address monetary policy or business cycles, and among those that do the models are mostly flexible price DSGE models. HallamBentham (talk) 04:37, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
