"A famous economist"
editFrom an article in Chinese, http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_5a53af350100b7ea.html~type=v5_one&label=rela_prevarticle, this famous economist's name is Don Paarlberg. Here's another article about him:
"DON PAARLBERG is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Agricultural Economics at Purdue University. In addition to teaching, he has served in the administrations of Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, and Ford. Dr. Paarlberg is the author of seven books including, Great Myths of Economics (1968) and Toward a Well-Fed World (1988)." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Derekjoe (talk • contribs) 01:19, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

The word "Epic"

change the age 90 to 91. 23.240.251.167 (talk) 16:40, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
- Not done: He was born on September of 1930. He is not yet 91 years old. The age in the info box will be updated automatically on is birthday. RudolfRed (talk) 17:01, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
The Chinese media reports his age as being 91 due to different cultural representations of age. In China, you are 1 when you are born. This Wikipedia article talks about this phenomenon -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Asian_age_reckoning
Birthday conflicts?
editI guess the above, failed semi-protected edit requests were happen due to different understanding of, and sources indicate his actual birthday, the de facto 7 Sep 1930 seems from CAE. But currently some recent sources indicated this thing in different ways: [1] says 13 August 1929, [2] says July 1929 (day unknown), and [3] says 9 July 1929, any ideas that if there are anyone source that can overturn the one from CAE?
