Template:Infobox economic concept
- Template:Infobox economic concept
This article details the use of the `Template:Infobox economic concept` within the MediaWiki environment. This template is designed to provide a standardized and visually consistent presentation of key information relating to various economic concepts, theories, and models. It's crucial for maintaining a professional and easily navigable Wikipedia-style encyclopedia focused on economics. This guide will cover its parameters, usage, examples, and best practices for its implementation.
Purpose
The primary goal of this infobox is to quickly summarize the essential characteristics of an economic concept. This allows readers to grasp the core idea at a glance, and provides a structured entry point for further investigation. Without a standardized format, articles on economic subjects can vary wildly in their presentation, making it difficult for readers to compare and contrast different ideas. The infobox addresses this by enforcing a consistent layout. It is particularly useful for concepts that appear frequently across different economic disciplines, such as Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics, and Behavioral economics.
Usage
The template is invoked within a wiki page using the following syntax:
```wiki

Usage
The template is invoked within a wiki page using the following syntax:
```wiki Template loop detected: Template:Infobox economic concept ```
Each parameter is described in detail below. Note that not all parameters are *required*; however, the `name` parameter is mandatory. Providing as much relevant information as possible will enhance the usefulness of the infobox.
Parameters
- name – (Required) The name of the economic concept. This is the title that will appear at the top of the infobox.
- image – An image relevant to the concept. Use the filename (e.g., `SupplyDemandCurve.png`) without the `File:` prefix. Ensure the image is appropriately licensed for use. Consider images that visually represent the concept, such as graphs, charts, or diagrams.
- image_caption – A caption for the image. This provides context and explains what the image illustrates.
- concept_type – The broad category of the concept. Examples include: "Theory," "Model," "Principle," "Law," "Indicator," "Paradigm," "Policy." Using a standardized set of types will aid in categorization and searching.
- field – The specific field of economics to which the concept belongs. Examples include: "Macroeconomics," "Microeconomics," "International Economics," "Development Economics," "Public Economics," "Financial Economics," "Labor Economics," "Political Economy," "Environmental Economics," "Health Economics."
- origin – The historical context or period in which the concept originated. This could be a century, a historical event, or a specific school of thought.
- developed_by – The economist(s) or intellectual(s) primarily responsible for developing the concept. Multiple names can be separated by commas. Link to their respective Wikipedia pages if available.
- key_figures – Economists or thinkers who significantly contributed to the concept’s development or application, beyond the primary developer(s).
- related_concepts – Other economic concepts that are closely related to this one. List them as comma-separated links to their respective articles. This is crucial for building a network of interconnected knowledge. Consider concepts that are complementary, contrasting, or build upon this concept. Examples include Opportunity cost, Comparative advantage, Elasticity, Game theory, Rational expectations.
- predecessor – An earlier concept or theory that laid the groundwork for this one.
- successor – A later concept or theory that builds upon or extends this one.
- applications – Real-world applications of the concept. This could include its use in policy-making, business strategy, or economic forecasting. Be specific and provide examples. For instance, "Used in Monetary policy to control inflation" or "Applied in Investment analysis to assess risk."
- criticisms – Common criticisms or limitations of the concept. Acknowledging weaknesses is crucial for a balanced and objective presentation. Include perspectives from different schools of thought.
- notes – Any additional relevant information that doesn't fit into the other parameters. This could include nuances, caveats, or recent developments.
Examples
Here are a few examples of how the infobox can be used:
Example 1: Supply and Demand
```wiki Template loop detected: Template:Infobox economic concept ```
Example 2: Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
```wiki Template loop detected: Template:Infobox economic concept ```
Example 3: The Phillips Curve
```wiki Template loop detected: Template:Infobox economic concept ```
Best Practices
- **Completeness:** Fill out as many parameters as possible. The more information provided, the more valuable the infobox will be.
- **Accuracy:** Ensure all information is accurate and verifiable. Cite sources where appropriate within the main article.
- **Conciseness:** Keep the information concise and to the point. The infobox is a summary, not a comprehensive explanation.
- **Consistency:** Use consistent terminology and formatting throughout all infoboxes. Refer to existing examples for guidance.
- **Image Selection:** Choose images that are relevant, high-quality, and appropriately licensed.
- **Linking:** Use internal links (link) to connect related concepts within the wiki. This helps readers explore the subject matter in more depth.
- **Avoid Jargon:** While precision is important, avoid overly technical jargon in the infobox itself. The main article can provide detailed explanations.
- **Regular Updates:** Economic concepts and their interpretations can evolve. Review and update infoboxes periodically to ensure they remain current.
- **Categorization:** Ensure the article is correctly categorized using.
- **Consider Related Indicators:** When relevant, include references to related Moving Averages, Relative Strength Index (RSI), MACD, Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci retracement, Stochastic Oscillator, Average True Range (ATR), Ichimoku Cloud, Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), On Balance Volume (OBV), Accumulation/Distribution Line, Chaikin Money Flow, and other common indicators.
- **Analyze Trends:** When discussing applications, link to articles on Trend analysis, Support and resistance levels, Chart patterns, Gap analysis, Elliott Wave Theory, Dow Theory, and other methods for identifying and interpreting market trends.
- **Understand Strategies:** Relate concepts to potential Day trading strategies, Swing trading strategies, Position trading strategies, Scalping strategies, Arbitrage strategies, Breakout strategies, Reversal strategies, Momentum trading, Value investing, and Growth investing.
- **Risk Management:** Where applicable, mention how the concept relates to Risk tolerance, Position sizing, Stop-loss orders, Take-profit orders, and other risk management techniques.
- **Economic Schools of Thought:** Mention the relevance of the concept to different schools of thought such as Keynesian economics, Classical economics, Austrian economics, Marxist economics, and Neoclassical economics.
Technical Details
