<snip R for economists>
Okay, I made a start, with http://www.mayin.org/ajayshah/KB/R/more.html
Tell me what should go into it. :-)
I think the most important thing for economists would be a list of the common econometric models and how they are accessed in R, for instance packages and the functions within those packages.
An example is what is known as a Tobit model to econometricians, which is one type of a survival model (to everybody else!). (This isn't that good an example as help.search("tobit") would probably turn up the right library.)
If you could produce a table with Econometrics to R translations that would be immensely helpful, as a start. I know someone suggested creating a facility for 'aliasing' econometrics-speak to R functions, but this got shot down for being unwieldy (rightly so, I think).
I'll let you know if I have any useful suggestions.
