Minimum wage economics

Is a neologism created by the author to create a fork of minimum wage

Delete Minimum wage discusses the economics, as would any reasonable article on the topic. Relevant discussion can be read at Talk:Minimum wage#Oh dear. ~ UBeR 19:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Minimum wage subsumes this page. Wikiant 19:24, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't. (i.e. Don't delete the article but Keep) The issues dealing with economics on the minimum wage are so big that they deserve their own page. I simultaneously recommending a slimming down of the economic material there, which the above have not addressed. No doubt this material will continue to expand, and there is nothing wrong with that. But it is big enough to deserve its own separate page. Clearly the minimum wage "subsumes" this page, the main article discusses the same and this is a "fork" of it. That's the whole point! These three statements above make no case for deletion whatsoever. Wik idea 20:02, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Content fork. The parent article, minimum wage, can and should cover this in depth, and it's not so long or disorganized that it requires a spinoff. MastCell ^Talk 20:16, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Agree with User:Wikidea. The parent article can cover the economics in a brief overview and this article can discuss it in greater detail. --Richard 06:19, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
