Would anyone object to me changing the photo to something more professional? This one is less illustrative than vain and creepy. -- Revaaron ( talk) 21:31, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Same goes for the new photo [1]. No disrespect intended, but also has an unprofessional look to it, something snapped as a user and his wife left the mall. I'll work on finding suitable replacements, along with captions per Wikipedia:Captions. -- Revaaron ( talk) 15:22, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
I wonder where the first use of this term was? i dont know aey .. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.65.43.254 ( talk) 22:50, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
There is some good information in this article, but it clearly needs citations and some organization. Right now it reads more like a loose collection of unconnected information. Kubigula 02:48, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
I understand that spelling can be a thorny issue in WP, but I think it's jarring to change the internal link in an article to "mass customisation", which then links to "mass customization". So, I think the spelling in the article ought to remain as it was for two reasons - (1) the wikilinks lead to article that use ize instead of ise; and (2) WP:MOS suggests that the dialect of the first major contributor should be followed. -- Kubigula ( talk) 17:21, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Dr. Calzolari has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:
- This initial sentence "In economic systems consumers are utilities expressed in the decision to trade or not." has no meaning!
- This sentence "The consumer is the one who pays to consume goods and services produced." is not precise. There are instances in which consumers use services or goods but they do not pay. For example this is often the case in two-sided markets, such as broadcasted TV, free newspapers, or any public good (in economic sense).
- early versions of this article referred to consumers in economics (optimal consumers' choice with limited resources). These may be resumed and added to complement.
We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.
We believe Dr. Calzolari has expertise on the topic of this article, since he has published relevant scholarly research:

Could someone who knows something about the topic add a discussion of the term's relevance in different economic theories? E.g., Does it make sense to talk about "consumers" under communism / collectivism? Does "consumer" imply capitalism? etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.223.202.213 ( talk) 03:09, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
I might take a stab at that. I would think we could put in two economic systems and describe the consumer in both. First, a consumer in the free market is free to make choices which are the primary force in what producers produce. Second, consumers in a communist system are seen as final users of the production, but their choices are irrelevant to the producer. The communist ideal within the government is the real force which drives production, not consumer choice. The role of the consumer in a free market system is much more impactful to producers.

I am though that this article is not good because we have to known about consumer and how the consumer cheated from shopkeeper but not about shopkeeper Suman samanta ( talk) 14:07, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
