The scholarship section of the article doesn't really conform to the standards of an encyclopedia in so far as the information given is not general enough. I strongly encourage interested and competent Wikipedians to shorten the corresponding sub-sections and broaden them to give a general overview of Goldin's research. --Arbraxan (talk) 08:06, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As with other Nobel laureates this year, they all had intricate, WP:PUFFERY or just too many primary sources in the "Research section". I would advice to remove the section or most of the section, and write a new one following the sources we have already. There is already plenty of information in the background article from the Nobel foundation. ReyHahn (talk) 14:16, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Goldin was born in New York City in 1946 to a Jewish family...."
I don't know why the insertion other than to qualify her for Wikipedia's list of "Jewish-American economists" (bottom of the page). (In fact, why on earth is there such a list? Why all the other Jewish-American this-and-that lists? So Jews can kvell? So anti-Jews can have a convenient roster of whom to hate? Why is it important to categorize people? Is Goldin left-handed, perhaps? Red-haired? Should I care?) If something in her personal or professional life indicates that she has Jewish roots (membership in a Jewish organization, e.g.), fine. But here--as so often throughout Wikipedia--I don't see it. 68.186.241.185 (talk) 14:17, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
