Article needs serious work

As it currently stands, this article needs major cleanup and reorganization. Right now it is basically a wall of rambling text, with no headings, inadequate citations, and nonsensical information (for example, Black Monday occurred 3 full years before this recession affected the US). I tried to organize the page initially, but apparently some editor does not agree that the "Early 90s recession" affected the world in the early 90s.--FrankieG123 (talk) 23:55, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, please try again. My issue was that it seemed reading the first para that it was trying to be remodeled in to a US-centric early 90s recession page. It was a late 80s/early 90s recession that was anything but US-centric. Timeshift (talk) 00:11, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Well, as the article stands it is not easy to decipher what was going on. It is called the early 90s recession, yet apparently it started in some places in the late 80s? (I could not find a citation for this). I realize that the lede was poorly worded, but that was not my intention. It still needs to be established when exactly this recession began, the best I could identify as the trigger was the 1990 oil price shock, which put the US into recession, with close trade partners taking the plunge soon after.--FrankieG123 (talk) 00:47, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Black Monday in 1987 was the trigger and caused the knock-on affect of setting up the economic scenarios and outcomes. An actual full blown recession can begin at a certain date but a recession doesn't just technically begin and end rigidly. The recession encompases the late 80s and early 90s.
