Anything I've forgotten?

I think you forgot to put the picture of the Resona in the Resona article.

Fixed; thanks!

Hey Steve, thanks for merging my Yas Om update. Would you mind adding me as the author of the article? I got removed when you updated it.

Fixed; thanks!


RE: New and Amended Pages 30/1/19 - extherian - 02-04-2019

Great, thanks! I'd also appreciate it if you'd list M. Alan Kazlev as an author of Homo Economicus, since the concept was his idea to begin with.


RE: New and Amended Pages 30/1/19 - stevebowers - 02-04-2019

I think it was Anders Sandberg who brought the concept into OA; the concept is a fairly well established one and has its own wiki page, athough we have a unique take on the idea.

That concept has virtually nothing to do with our interpretation though.


RE: New and Amended Pages 30/1/19 - extherian - 02-04-2019

Well, it doesn't really matter who thought of it first. The original stub article listed M. Alan Kazlev as the person who came up with the idea of Homo Economicus being a cyborg rather than a model of consumer behaviour, so that's why I suggested that he should be credited with the original concept.


RE: New and Amended Pages 30/1/19 - stevebowers - 02-04-2019

Yes, that is true.
The article now says
