[edit] Usage

{{infobox equilibrium|
name= Name of the equilibrium concept|
subsetof = List of equilibrium concepts that this equilibrium concept is a subset of|
supersetof = List of equilibrium concepts that are a subset of this equilibrium concept|
intersectwith = List of equilibrium concepts that overlap with this one, but that are neither subsets       
                nor supersets|
independentof = List of equilibrium concepts that do not overlap with this one|
discoverer = The person who first defined the equilibrium concept|
usedfor = If the concept is used for particular purposes, list them here|
example = A game that provides an interesting example}}

As a general rule, it is best to only list the immeadiate sub and supersets for a particular concept. So, for instance, every subgame perfect equilibrium is a Nash equilibrium and every Nash equilibrium is Rationalizable. It is probably best only to list Nash equilibrium in the list of supersets.

[edit] Example

{{Infobox equilibrium|
name=Nash Equilibrium|
subsetof= [[Rationalizability]], [[Correlated equilibrium]]|
supersetof = [[Evolutionary stable strategy]], [[Subgame perfect equilibrium]], 
[[Perfect Bayesian equilibrium]], [[Trembling hand perfect equilibrium]]|
discoverer=[[John Forbes Nash]]|
usedfor=All [[non-cooperative game]]s|
example=[[Prisoner's dilemma]]}}
