* '''Oppose''' The economics field is big enough to support a stand-alone article. Besides which, if we merge every possible application area into [[Genetic algorithm |GA]] or [[List of genetic algorithm applications]], they'd be badly bloated.

There are so many advanced mathematical and CS applications evolving in economics that this is not a matter of concern. If someone is employing a GA in economics, then they would very likely be using fitness-based objective functions, crossover, selection, mutation, preventing elitism, etc. There should be no real reason to have application-specific articles on GA in e.g. economics, bioinformatics, etc. - thus, it would be better to merge the two. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Mydataengine|Mydataengine]] ([[User talk:Mydataengine|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mydataengine|contribs]]) 20:22, 19 August 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
