John Maynard Keynes was one of the Social sciences and society good articles, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.
After reviewing this article, I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria. Some of my concerns are listed below:
At over 12,000 words, WP:TOOBIG recommends that the article should probably be split. I agree with this, and I think some information should be moved to other articles or removed.
There is a lot of uncited prose.
The article relies upon many block quotes, and I think some of them can be removed or summarised.
Unreliable sources like Investopedia and mises.org are used as inline citations, and should be reevaluated.
"Cultural representations" is full of one-sentence paragraphs which should be merged.

The article, at 12000 words, is considered WP:TOOBIG. There is a lot of uncited prose, and an overreliance on block quotes. Unreliable sources are used as intext citations and the "Cultural representations" section is full of one-sentence paragraphs. Z1720 (talk) 02:16, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delist: in addition to the issues outlined above, and live citation needed tags, there are other prose infelicities, and the overall structure is pretty unclear (perhaps related to the WP:TOOBIG issues identified above). UndercoverClassicistT·C21:01, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A quote from HISTORY TODAY's article, "Keynes In The Long Run": " ‘The long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead,’ wrote John Maynard Keynes in his 1923 work, A Tract on Monetary Reform. Though rarely quoted in full, it is the utterance for which the great economist is both best known and most damned." 76.236.220.28 (talk) 19:55, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
