RuneScape:Requests for deletion/Market crashes

2008 Market Dip & 2009 Market Crash
These 2 articles are just bad. No matter how much anti-deletionist talk bad_fetus has to give me, these are 2 articles that don't have much of a place on the wiki. First of all is their poor writing. The articles are entirely speculative and one of them even manages to cite random blog posts (LOL).

Whoever wrote these articles also seems to fail to understand that market change is natural. Most of what I'm seeing for the price changes in 2008 are actually just prices dropping, not necessarily a crash, and certainly nothing spectacular.

So if this behavior isn't ano mol ous, why is such a big deal being made? I don't know. There's no denying that prices fell, and that some could be considered to have crashed, but where is the importance of that if this is just a normal thing? Just as importantly, how do these items alone constitute a crash of the entire market? Our Common Trade Index actually shows positive growth in those times.

A few items fell together because they were related, so what? Not only are these articles bad, they are wrong by the other standards we use.
