The introduction of an entry of Michal Kalecki is a good idea, but the content of this article as of now may have been taken from some other website mostly (http://cepa.newschool.edu/het/profiles/kalecki.htm), and so may raise questions regarding plagiarism.

Please rectify this.

:Dear anon, thank you for your comments. I will copyedit the article now. Feel free to help us expand this into a unique and most useful entry on the web!--[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]] <sup><font color="green">[[User_talk:Piotrus|Talk]]</font></sup> 17:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

== "greatest" ==

Calling him "greatest" economist is just offensive, you could call Marx "greatest German writer" - that would be the same. It would be better to mention the place he was born, that's all.{{unsigned|213.238.118.115}}

That shall be definition, NOT private opinion. Maybe you wanted to say "one of the best known?" or "popular"?{{unsigned|213.238.117.69}}
:Dear anon, indeed, one of the best known Polish economist would be more neutral.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|&nbsp;Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&nbsp;]]|[[User_talk:Piotrus|<font style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;">&nbsp;talk&nbsp;</font>]]</span></sub> 15:30, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

== Photo ==
It would be nice to a get a photo of him. The one at the cepa site may be public domain: http://cepa.newschool.edu/het/profiles/kalecki.htm. What exactly are the requirements for the use of the photo at Wiki?[[User:Radeksz|radek]] ([[User talk:Radeksz|talk]]) 04:22, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
:[[Public domain]] preferably, [[fair use]] as a last resort. Check [[:template:Poland-PD]], very useful.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]|[[User_talk:Piotrus|<font style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> talk </font>]]</span></sub> 05:25, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

::So if it was taken by a Polish photographer before 1994 it's in Public Domain?[[User:Radeksz|radek]] ([[User talk:Radeksz|talk]]) 05:37, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

:::And if there is no watermark on the photo. That's a good rule of thumb, if not perfect.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]|[[User_talk:Piotrus|<font style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> talk </font>]]</span></sub> 06:21, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

::::Well, I emailed the New School page to see about the photo they got. Also, mostly out of curiosity but also as something that could be used to expand the article; where did he spend the war? He published during it, in English in fact (1942) (which suggests it wasn't Soviet Union) and on the topic of British wartime economy. So was it UK? And if so, when did he leave Poland? And when did he come back to the PRL? Anyone know? I tried finding info on this but came up with nothing. More generally this page is missing some "non-academic" type info as in where he was born, etc.[[User:Radeksz|radek]] ([[User talk:Radeksz|talk]]) 06:39, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
::::: Ah. Ok. Polish Wiki. Duh.[[User:Radeksz|radek]] ([[User talk:Radeksz|talk]]) 06:40, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
:::::Based on my experience, they have no idea where they got the photo from (whoever made the page copied it from something and forgot long ago), and will either ignore your @, not reply or claim they own the copyright :) Here's wishing I am wrong :) I agree this needs much expansion. Currently I don't have any materials about him - have you tried [[Google Print]]? --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]|[[User_talk:Piotrus|<font style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> talk </font>]]</span></sub> 17:40, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
