Suggestions for editing

Please list below any wikipedia articles you think could do with some editing, and any suggestions for ways they could be improved.

• Utility - Is functional representation of a preference ordering, no mention of Gérard Debreu.
• Marginal utility - The section on diminishing marginal utility has a flag asking for help
• Vickrey–Clarke–Groves mechanism - No references to any economic literature, no mention of implementation difficulties, e.g. with coalition formation.
• Samuelson condition - Just a stub.
• Public good - Several flags seeking development.
• Behavioural economics - There are some statements that are just wrong. E.g. "Further, prospect theory has been used to explain phenomena that existing decision theories have great difficulty in explaining. These include backward bending labor supply curves, asymmetric price elasticities, tax evasion and co-movement of stock prices and consumption." And the section on criticisms is especially weak. David Levine's book Is Behavioural Economics Doomed? raises a bunch of issues.
• Moral hazard - The section "Insurance industry" has a flag asking for editorial help.
• Homo economicus - not fit for purpose.
