I think that the pages about Adaptive expectations and Price/wage spiral should be separate and should not be merged.

Adaptive expectations perhaps should be a bigger article, but popping Price/wage spiral and spilling its contents into Adaptive isn't the way to do it. Price/wage spiral is deserving of its own page. It's a strong topic, although it is a short artice, and it should remain a short article, probably. But its topic is pregnant with meaning on its own, so I ask that it please not be merged with the other article. Thanks, and go Wikipedia!

Should be kept seperate.

The Price/Wage spiral, allthough a part of the adaptive expectations model, is not exclusive to adaptive expectations.

It is not arguable that basing an inflationary model off of adaptive expectations instead of rational allows for the existance of the spiral, however the spiral is a seperate entity, which can have applications not only in general macroeconomics and expectations, but also in other disciplines of economics, thus i think it is best to keep it as a seperate article

Definitely keep seperate

The Price/wage spiral is a much talked about phenomena in economics classes and I think it deserves to stay seperate. When it is taught it is shown as a seperate issue that contributes to inflation etc. People researching the price/wage spiral should be able to find a dedicated article.
