Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg

Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The Article Is Silly

This article misrepresents the subject. Reliable sources: Walras, Christopher Bliss. Also Ian Steedman. I suppose one might say that the article fairly represents John Bates Clark, but mainstream economists rejected that theory about half a century ago. -- RLV 209.217.195.119 (talk) 06:20, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

No logic

The first sentence says that "the theory is the change" ... well well ... so many edits and nobody was bothered by the logic of that sentence ... ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.89.200.51 (talk) 20:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

So you don't like those words together? I don't understand. This is an article about economics and not some grammar article. Not everybody edits in the same language. If you are confused about the concept, then you need to go back to pre-calculus and brush up. The concept is sound, and proven.68.248.237.187 (talk) 06:37, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Citation needed?

"The idea that payments to factors of production equilibrate to their marginal productivity had been laid out early on by such as John Bates Clark and Knut Wicksell, who presented a far simpler and more robust demonstration of the principle." This seems like a bit of a value-statement without any verification. It's essentially saying that they were better in every desirable way then their followers. I think this needs a citation at the least. 68.248.237.187 (talk) 06:35, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Agreed and fixed, by removing "far" and "more robust". -- econterms (talk) 19:45, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
