Draft talk:Hrishikesh D. Vinod

About this Draft

Please do not delete without understanding what this is about. I am a 50 year old economist with 2 popular textbooks and also associate editor for a well-known scholarly journal. Vinod was my dissertation mentor so I already acknowledged conflict of interest although this was 17 years ago. I may or may not be notable but he definitely is. He is 85 years old. He does not need advertising or promotion. His most important contributions were 50 years ago. His 1969 paper alone has 203 citations which is like thousands of citations today (There was no Internet and significantly less journals and academicians back then). RePEc is very important in economics and he is ranked among the top 5% of economists in RePEc. This is despite his being an econometrician (It is much more difficult to publish in econometrics as opposed to applied papers.) He also has three R packages which I didn't mention in my article. You can ask any expert in this field and they will tell you that he is important. I tried my best but please help me write the entry he deserves. Hendursaga (talk) 07:29, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
