Credit Crunch
I'm not sure if this is the right site to bring up this discussion but I feel quite strongly that although the media is full of it the analyses presented on the credit/debt crisis are either shallow and incomplete or very technical and imprenetable for most including me. I found an interesting article which makes the point that "Witch hunters in Africa lynch “thieves” who rob men of their masculinity. Many people’s grasp of economics is at the same level. " It still doesn't for me approach the kind of accessability and clarity I'm looking for. Would this site be the place to try and write an article/section that would address this? Would micro credits only generate micro crises? 17:24, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Seed Articles
On many basic terms there are no articles here yet, which is ofcourse normal for a young wiki. What is also common as far as I can tell is that there is a bigger barrier for people to start an article from scratch than to add to or edit an existing one. So my suggestion would be the following: that for a number of basic concepts/terms linked to money cashwiki imports the first couple of paragraphs from wikipedia articles on these topics and then leave them there to grow into unique entities over time. I'd even volunteer to do it myself, seems like a fun thing to do. Would micro credits only generate micro crises? 21:33, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
