Talk:2010s

The Economic State of the 2010s (Previously: Possible vandalism?)

On October 24th 2023, this User:Melotrance has reverted my manual edits that reverted previous edits by User:ExoticPride from way back in January 2023 on 4 separate occasions, in such a way that has prevented me from reverting (with a click) his reversions of my edits.

1. [1]
2. [2]
3. [3]
4. [4]

Obviously, as you can see his reverted information are unsourced, and are causing a disinformation of recent history. Nobody would seriously associate the 2010s with a strong economy or being the "Golden Age of Television".

Please discuss what is to be done. Ahmadiskandarshah (talk) 21:53, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi.

I have reverted your edits but I corrected and took out the 'Golden Age Of Television' and the 'prosperous economy' and replaced it with 'stability'.

I took out the irrelevant bits.

And if you have been touch with the economy, the market of the 2010s was stable throughout the decade. Yes, there was a huge unemployment and inflation at the start of 2010 but they all decrease throughout the years and GDP grows yearly without any form of bubble bursts or official recession term.

If you clearly look at the 2007-2009 financial crisis, the recovery had already kicked in by 2009 despite still being in pain.

Also, to me it sounds like you're editing things based on a personal perspective rather than a whole.

The 10s didn't have a strong economy but its stability is remarkable.

And if you are going to do this, might as well as change the 90s Wikipedia Page when it says 'many developed countries were economically prosperous in the 90s' which is untrue.

Asia and Europe were suffering. It was mostly just the US.

2009-2020 economic expansion.

Goldilocks economy refers to 'not too hot' and 'not too cold'.

In alternate, it's stability.

Hi. Thank you for your perspective. I see your point. My apologies if there are any assumptions of bad faith.

Regarding the 1990s, like you said, the economic state is different for every country, and also, is different for different parts of the decade. America actually had a recession in the early 90s, which was followed by an economic boom that lasted throughout the decade, whereas in the same time period, Asia, that enjoyed a stable economy from early-to-mid 90s until the financial crisis in 1997.

Even when putting aside the United States, the 2010s economy might be a boon for a country like China, meanwhile the 2010s was a crisis decade for Venezuela, Greece, and Ireland.

Unless if one's writing about a decade that was defined by their economic state (e.g. 1930s), it is important to consider factors, such as locations and periods within decade, when discussing the economic situation for a lengthy period of time like a decade.

With that said, I would like to keep this talk section open to gather more perspectives on the economic state in the 2010s, so that a consensus could be formed.

Thank you. Ahmadiskandarshah (talk) 13:15, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Why has the collage pictures been removed, like for other decades. Is this a new rule? 81.111.233.1 (talk) 05:01, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
