Somebody proposed deleting this page for lack of notability. I don't agree. JEDC is one of the highest-ranked journals devoted primarily to macroeconomics. (The Journal of Monetary Economics is generally considered the best macroeconomics journal, with the Review of Economic Dynamics, JEDC, and the Journal of Money, Credit, and Banking close behind. Macroeconomic Dynamics, the Journal of Macroeconomics, and the International Journal of Central Banking are lower ranked.) It is also much more notable than many of the journals in the List of scholarly journals in economics. But note that I am comparing it to other journals in the field of macroeconomics; I'm not claiming it is as prestigious as general interest economics journals like American Economic Review or Econometrica.

Personally I think it would be helpful to have Wiki pages on all major academic journals, but certainly top-ranked journals like JEDC ought to be included. Rinconsoleao (talk) 16:15, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough - I based the prod on the fact that the article was poor and had no references, and I've never heard of it in 3 years of economics at Oxford, unlike JMCB or IJCB. But we work on reading lists from tutors, so I've got no idea about these rankings you talk about. DJR (T) 23:14, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
