Surprise, surprise .../Demand-side issue/Citations[edit]

Pardon the sarcasm. I've been wading through vagaries and IP-address edits for some hours now (and spent some time in the Wikipedia:Templates for discussion environs recently). Anyway, as suspected from that recent templates-exploration, it's no surprise there's no note here to address the neutrality-dispute template in the article.

There was a new-to-me phrase, "demand-side economics" (capitalized yet), in the first paragraph of the Biography section of the article when I arrived those hours ago. I've addressed some of my course on this today here, and beyond that here and here. And I've attempted to keep the idea of the phrase, though not the exact phrase, in the article: It does seem to apply even if it's not that common (no Wiki article) a phrase. I did make a bit of an addition to Demand (economics) as part of the effort.

I'd be the first to acknowledge there was some suspect (opinionated) material in the article; and there's definitely room for neutrality violations in the subject; and there may be still some shards of opinion in there. However, I'm moving, myself, toward taking off the template unless someone weighs in convincingly here.

Another step I took today was to separate the number of non-in-line references into the External links section. I also got a few more cites into the body of the article. The body could use more in-line citations but hopefully it is now baseline-adequate.

It was the eponymous building that got me started today and finding the Jake-Garn-of-Utah connection toward the end (aarg; I forgot to update the retrieve-date in the footnote; well, more motivation to come back) made the whole thing worthwhile. On we go, eh? Cheers. Swliv (talk) 22:54, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Page Number for Beckoning Frontiers Citation[edit]

In the intro section there's a block quote from Eccles's memoir Beckoning Frontiers, and the page number is 76 (I have a physical copy of the book). However, I don't know how to reflect those changes in the citation itself so if someone more knowledgeable about the formatting could help, that would be wonderful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MetroMask (talk • contribs) 20:10, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
