==Will reply later==

Preoccupied now. Will reply later. Brief comment: for main ideas, it is better to have several concordant authoritative sources; I think such concordance is a good component of reliable sourcing. I think that internet references, such as ''The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy'', are mostly poor things to cite as 'reliable sources'. Paper-and-ink printed books that can be found in libraries are much preferable.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 02:28, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

:I agree with you on the issue of having several concordant authoritative sources for main ideas. I'll keep it in mind for future contributions. But I don't agree on the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy or similar sources (like the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy). They have a good reputation as far as I'm aware of and I've personally found them useful and no less reliable than their printed alternatives. And of course they have the additional advantage for the average reader that they only need to follow a link to check them out.[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 04:14, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

::Still preoccupied, but can chat briefly. Thank you for your comment. To  my  mind, the internet sources are slippery. I don't see the authoritative printed sources simply as alternatives. How does one check the internet sources? What level of authority do they attain? How easy it is for them to change after they have been initially cited?[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 06:07, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

:::Thanks for making the time. These are good questions. One source of epistemic authority is the author. What experts say is more likely to be true than what non-experts say. SEP & IEP have strict criteria for who can publish there, I guess stricter requirements than regular journals. Another source of authority comes from the publisher, e.g. from the people on the editorial board. Another source of authority comes from the publishing process, especially the peer-reviewing part. One indication of authority comes from whether many people in the field consider the publisher reliable. I'm not an expert on these issues but from what I can tell SEP & IEP don't do too bad on them.

:::You are right about the changing-part. There are some ways to mitigate it like the quarterly permanent editions of SEP in their archive or the Wayback Machine by the Internet Archive.

:::The hurdle for publishing online is much lower than for publishing in print. And of course this affects the quality of what is published. So here I agree with you that, generally speaking, printed publications are more reliable. But it doesn't apply to all cases.[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 07:14, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

::::::An ontology isn't about some unique ultimate truth. It's about how to articulate our thoughts about some world in a convenient way.

I have seen people seem to get Whitehead all jumbled. If you are interested in truth, may I suggest Jaakko Hintikka?

:::::::::I found a review, but I think it'll have to wait until after my truth-maker reading-list.

:::::::::As for your comments on ontology before, they sound to me a little bit like Strawson's idea of descriptive metaphysics, i.e. that metaphysics is about describing our conceptual scheme. I haven't fully made up my mind on this issue, but I'm more inclined to a realist position: that there are actual "ontological facts" out there and that they determine whether a given ontological theory is right or wrong.[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 16:10, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

{{outdent}}

Yes, of course you are right that the ordinary world consists of actual facts, which are out there, and which constrain the rightness or wrongness of an ontological theory, and which define ordinary reality. No doubt there. Ordinarily, we may leave the qualifier 'ordinary' tacit, but here we may say it, for definiteness.

But there are worlds other than the ordinary world. James Bond lives in one of them, perhaps even, over the decades, in several of them. The integers exist in another world, even in several other worlds. But, in a useful sense, such other worlds are not that of the ordinary reality of the ordinary world. They are fictional, mathematical,..., whatever, worlds. They may even have some real aspects, though not fully defining ordinary reality.

Each of these worlds has its ontology. Indeed, a world may easily have several ontologies, some better than others, for some purposes. Whitehead says "There remains the final reflection, how shallow, puny, and imperfect are efforts to sound the depths in the nature of things. In philosophical discussion, the merest hint of dogmatic certainty as to finality of statement is an exhibition of folly."

Your use of the word 'actual' is key. A basic concept in Whitehead's scheme is that of an 'actual entity'. Things are real insofar as they are founded in actual entities. Does this make sense?[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 21:45, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

:I can follow you to some extend. Let's say we take ontology to be about what ontological commitments a given theory or fiction has. Then we can say if James Bond's world were actual, the villain Auric Goldfinger would exist. Or if Hinduism were true then so & so many gods would exist. Different ontological theories of the same theory/fiction may disagree on the ontological commitments of this theory/fiction. And I take it that what you/Whitehead are saying is that there is no matter of fact as to which of these different ontological theories is true, that it is more a matter of convenience how we want to describe them. Is that roughly how you would characterize it? How does the idea of "actual entities" fit into this picture?

::{{Font color|blue|I can follow you to some extend.}} ok
::{{Font color|blue|Let's say we take ontology to be about what ontological commitments a given theory or fiction has.}} ok

::{{Font color|blue|Then we can say if James Bond's world were actual, the villain Auric Goldfinger would exist.}} The way I use the word 'actual' in this context leads me to say that James Bond's world is not actual, and contains no actual entities; this follows from its being fictional. I don't have a problem with saying that in James Bond's world, Goldfinger exists.

::{{Font color|blue|Or if Hinduism were true then so & so many gods would exist.}} For me, the question of the truth of Hinduism is close to meaningless or uninteresting. I don't see ontology as being very relevant to Hinduism. I guess that one could construct an ontology of Hinduism, with a taxonomy of objects such as gods and demons.

::{{Font color|blue|Different ontological theories of the same theory/fiction may disagree on the ontological commitments of this theory/fiction.}} Yes, different ontologies for a given world or universe of discourse differ.

::{{Font color|blue|And I take it that what you/Whitehead are saying is that there is no matter of fact as to which of these different ontological theories is true, that it is more a matter of convenience how we want to describe them. Is that roughly how you would characterize it?}} Yes. Aristotle took ''substances'' as his ontologically fundamental objects; only one fundamental category. That did quite well for him, but it had faults that gradually emerged in discussion; for example, it gives an imperfect account of causality. Descartes proposed two fundamentally different categories of basic ontological objects. I don't know how detailed was his ontology within those two categories. Leibniz proposed his ''monads'' as fundamental objects; only one fundamental category. That ontology had some logical merit, and was perhaps in some respects an advance on Aristotle's substances, but it didn't have much practical use, because it didn't give a systematically useful account of causality. Whitehead proposes a new kind of fundamental object that he calls an ''actual entity''; only one fundamental category, that fully and usefully respects causality. This ontology is primarily only about the actual real world; it is not primarily about mathematical objects, nor primarily about fictive objects, nor primarily about other possible worlds or universes of discourse. Whitehead's other fundamental objects, which he calls 'abstractions', derive whatever they have of reality from their relations to the actual entities. An example of an abstraction is a number, say 'two'. Whitehead assumes that his ontology will be superseded by an endless procession of better ones that he hasn't thought of.

::{{Font color|blue|How does the idea of "actual entities" fit into this picture?}} Whitehead's actual entities are precisely processes in the ordinary world. Each process is caused by other processes, and in turn it causes yet other processes. A prime characteristic of a process is where and when it takes place, relative to other processes.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 09:10, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

:::Thanks for the detailed response. I'm not sure about the ontology of things inside fictions. My realist intuition about ontology concerns more the ontology of the actual world. So for me the question of whether to adopt Aristotle's or Leibniz's or Whitehead's ontology would be primarily about which one is true. This of course is often more difficult to figure out than in the case of a disagreement between empirical theories since rational intuition may be less reliable than sensory observation.

:::But I think I like Whitehead's dedication to actuality. There is a view called "actualism" in contemporary metaphysics. It's basic idea is that existence/reality/being is primarily actual. We can still talk about merely possible things, like possible objects or possible worlds. But their existence is non-fundamental: It's grounded somewhere in something actual. It's sounds to me like we might list Whitehead among the actualists.[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 11:49, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

::::By mentioning Whitehead, I led us off the point of my initial comment, which was about your added section. It's not just the paper-and-ink printedness of books that is ingredient in their status as reliable sources. There are other factors.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 13:38, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

::::For me, an ontology is not true-or-false. Rather, it makes sense, or it doesn't make sense, or is useful or not, for my purpose. I may use an ontology to help me examine substantial questions of truth.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 01:30, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

:::::Do you think that ontology is a science in the widest sense? Because if it's not about truth, it might be better to categorize it as something like an art or a technology.

::::::{{Font color|blue|Do you think that ontology is a science in the widest sense?}} I am not sure exactly what is a science. I am not sure that science has to be solely about truth. I value truth, but I think it doesn't exhaust all that we need. I am not in touch will all the latest, but perhaps I may refer to the mediaeval schoolwork. I think ontology may be partly trivial, that is to say, concerned with grammar, rhetoric, and logic. Or perhaps it belongs to philosophy. I don't know how philosophy is classified. It seems it isn't in the quadrivium. I guess it is postgraduate, a topic in which one may get a doctorate. I think the study of ontology is a rational activity, but I am not sure how to proceed from there.

::::::{{Font color|blue|Because if it's not about truth, it might be better to categorize it as something like an art or a technology. For example we might provisionally say that science aims at producing true sentences while technology aims at producing useful things.}} I am not very deeply into such a classification scheme.

::::::Ok, back here. If pushed for a choice amongst the three that you offer, I would say that philosophy, with its ingredient ontology, is an art.

::::::{{Font color|blue|Which other factors did you have in mind in favor of printed media?}} Perhaps I am mistaken, but I am inclined to think that printed textbooks and monographs are mostly subject to more sustained processes for assessing their reliability as Wikipedia sources.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 10:42, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

{{outdent}}

I think you are right to say that science is about more than just truth. For example a lucky guess might be true, but we wouldn't call it scientific. Another important ingredient, I think, is providing justification for the claims. In the empirical sciences this happens through the scientific method which involves sensory observations that in principle every "normal" observer would make when put in the right situation. But this doesn't work for formal sciences like mathematics. And it seems to me that this also doesn't get you very far in philosophy. One way to apply this idea from the empirical sciences is to extend the scientific method by allowing non-sensory evidence, e.g. from what we might call "rational intuition". In this interpretation philosophy and, by extension, ontology are sciences in a wider sense: they aim at truth, and they try to get there by providing evidence and arguments based on this evidence. It's just that they rely on evidence that isn't accepted (but often presupposed) by the empirical sciences. Ideally this evidence is also such that every "normal" rational being would accept it so that there is a general scientific consensus at least on the foundations. This is the part where philosophy is still lacking behind compared to other sciences.

At least that's the view that I find most attractive. But of course it doesn't work if you remove truth from the equation.

I think basically we are in agreement that, for most part, printed publications are more reliable because more effort goes into ensuring the quality and reliability of their contents.[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 12:50, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

:Need to remember Einstein's correct dictum that in physics (as in other empirical sciences), it is the theory that decides what can be observed. Abduction, the making of lucky guesses, perhaps, as you say, including "rational intuition", is an important creative contributor to science.

:I am not keen on the proposition that philosophical questions can be decided by evidence, unless one sees valid pure reason as 'evidence', a view that I think strains language. Philosophy aims at things well outside the scope of truth. It aims to make sense of things. Truth is ingredient in that, but it has other ingredients. I think you would be shocked if you were to appreciate the depth of philosophical incompetence and nonsense that is to be found in physics. I think that much that passes for "general scientific consensus" is nonsense. The "normal" rational being is a rarity.[[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 14:09, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

::I think we can agree that, among other things, philosophers argue. Arguments, whether deductive or defeasible ones, depend on premises. A valid argument only supports its conclusion if its premises are true. So the question is where these premises come from. In some cases they come from other arguments, but in other cases they come directly from experiences, for example from perceptions/observations. Rational intuition, as I see it, can provide premises (or maybe better: provide evidence/justification for premises) in a way similar to perception. So, in this sense, intuition is not an argument like abduction. Sometimes when considering a proposition we get the impression that this proposition is true. In some cases this may be based on previous experiences but in other cases it isn't. These cases where it isn't (or at least a subset of them) are rational intuitions. Examples might be: "2 + 2 = 4" in mathematics, "negative entities (like holes, cracks or shadows) depend on positive entities" in ontology, "it's morally wrong to torture innocent people for fun" in ethics. These intuitions provide justification but are fallible. 

::It might be helpful to unpack the notion of "making sense". One way to make sense of things is to explain them. One way science does this is by observing regularities (e.g. objects fall when we drop them) and positing laws/force (gravitation) to explain the observation. Is that the notion of sense-making you have in mind?[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 04:06, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

:::{{Font color|blue|but in other cases they come directly from experiences, for example from perceptions/observations.}} I think that every proposition has important ingredients that do not come directly from sensation.

Yes, explanations contribute much to sense making, but plenty of things make sense that, to us, are apparently inexplicable. I think it is not the main business of philosophy to explain things scientifically. It seems to me that its role is more to consider the structure and bases of proposed explanations, as well as of non-explanatory accounts, not only in science, but also in art and technology?

== Extended modal realism ==

Hi there Phlsph7, a belated welcome to Wikipedia! I came across the page you created [[Extended modal realism]] while doing [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|new pages patrol]]. I just wanted to drop by to leave a couple of notes. First, I see you used a version of your extended modal realism text to make [[Modal_realism#Extended_modal_realism]]. It's generally poor practice for us to host several paragraphs of the same text in two different articles since it makes keeping that text up-to-date more challenging (someone might update one but forget the other). For what it's worth, I'd recommend shortening the material at [[Modal_realism#Extended_modal_realism]] to make it more of a high-level summary of [[Extended modal realism]]. A second note, the text at [[Extended modal realism]] is quite dense. Wikipedia articles should be accessible to a broad audience. Articles on very niche topics need not be understandable to all, but we should aim to write articles that are understood outside of our field to the extent possible. Perhaps you could have a non-philosopher take a look and tell you what parts they struggle with? Otherwise I hope all is well. If you have questions/concerns, you can ask me here, or find faster more experienced help at [[WP:TEAHOUSE]]. All the best, [[User:Ajpolino|Ajpolino]] ([[User talk:Ajpolino|talk]]) 20:39, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

:Thank you for your helpful feedback. I think you were right to point out that [[Modal_realism#Extended_modal_realism]] goes too much into detail and that [[Extended modal realism]] should be more accessible. I hope to address these issues once I have the time.

:I've found myself several times in a situation where I saw that a section I wrote for one article might also fit well into another article, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Possible_world&oldid=988646256 or https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Nicolai_Hartmann&oldid=990216183. You mentioned that copying should be restricted to one paragraph and I've heard similar opinions from other users. Do you know of an article that has guidelines for this issue? [[Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia]] is not very useful here. One alternative would be to rephrase instead of copying, but that doesn't really solve the problem if the meaning remains the same. I haven't experimented with [[Wikipedia:Transclusion]], but this might be a 3rd option. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 05:44, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
::Finding time is always the struggle here. Anyway yes, this is a fairly common problem, especially for broader overview articles whose sections are each deserving of their own articles (as an extreme example, see [[Philosophy]] where just about every section title is also the title of an article). There's no tried-and-true rule for dealing with this. Many editors use a system where they write up the more specific article (extended modal realism in this case), then copy/paste the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section|lead]] to serve as the subsection of the parent article (in this case [[Modal_realism#Extended_modal_realism]]). Some do  transclude that section as you suggested; relevant guideline [[Wikipedia:Summary_style#Synchronization|here]]. For what it's worth, my personal opinion is that cobbling together an overview article from the lead sections of its various subtopics can create a Frankenstein's monster that flows poorly and is not a very compelling read. So I typically work on the more specific article first, then go to the parent article and try to churn out a paragraph or two that both summarize the subtopic, and fit into the flow of the parent article (though as you said, finding the time is always a trick). If your interests are fairly niche topics (as mine are and, forgive me for saying, yours seem to be) it's likely that no one else will come along to improve your text for quite some time. So it may be worth your time to put that extra coat of polish on these articles before your attention moves on to other things. Pardon the long reply. I hope all is well on your end.

::
::Yes, but this comment was only indirectly about the article. It was about the importance of discussing the sources in a respectful manner, in particular, of not accusing others of proposing OR simply because we do not share their understanding of the sources. Editors must do a synthesis of the sources to explain the topic to a large audience. We should not conclude immediately that it is OR. It's the role of the editors to understand the relevant points of view in these sources and to present them in a way that is adequate in a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia is built from reliable secondary sources (reliable journals, well known authors, etc.) and tertiary sources (other encyclopedia) and editors must do a synthesis of all that without giving undue weight to any point of view. 
::
::In our case, I have noticed that the JTB point of view on knowledge is being emphasized in tertiary sources on the specific subject "epistemology", but other sources (including other encyclopedia articles) present other points of view on knowledge. In Wikipedia, we should not present the JTB point of view as if it was the truth, even if it shows up in a few encyclopedia. Anyway, I agree that this last paragraph should be discussed in the talk page of the article. Here, my goal (in the first paragraph) was only to say that we must be respectful of others and not accuse each others of pushing OR.

Hey, thanks so much for your additions to the [[logic]] article. They're huge improvements and I really appreciate the energy you must have spent to make them. I'm going to tinker with the prose and structure to try to make it more accessible. I apologize in advance if this is annoying (I know I sometimes feel that way when people go messing with things I've written!), and I'll be sure to respect the intent behind your contributions and open a discussion before making any substantive changes.

== Why that initial sentence is unnecessary ==

[[Philosopher]]s in the 20th century started to investigate the "evidential relation", the relation between evidence and the proposition supported by it. [[User:Phlsph7]]

Why is this unnecessary?
[[User:Uni3993|Uni3993]] ([[User talk:Uni3993|talk]]) 20:31, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
:Hello Uni3993 and thanks for bringing this to the talk page. It seems to me that the original formulation makes the issue of the evidential relation itself more explicit. Your formulation, on the other hand, focuses more on the intellectual history, which is not discussed in detail in the article. The same phrase as your suggestion is already used in the section "Nature of the evidential relation", where such details fit better. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 06:04, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
:: Ok, then can we at least add "In philosophy,". Because I want some degree of separation between philosophical and non philosophical discussions on the subject. Because evidential relation is a completely a philosophical subject. For example someone studying Physics that doesn't take the optional History and Philosophy of science course will never hear the term evidential relation. This is the final change I want really and I think its a very reasonable addition. [[User:Uni3993|Uni3993]] ([[User talk:Uni3993|talk]]) 11:03, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
::: The issue of evidential relations is relevant to many fields, not just philosophy. But you may be right that the specific term "evidential relation" is mainly used in philosophy. In this case, it would make most sense to qualify not the whole statement but only the terminology, i.e. by adding the "in philosophy" at the end of this sentence: {{quote|In order for something to act as evidence for a hypothesis, it has to stand in the right relation to it, referred to as the "evidential relation" in philosophy.}} [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 16:11, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
:::: Please have a look at the current edition it include the variation of the sentence you told. Also one thing to note, as a person very interested in philosophy I can understand you want to consider philosophy as the basis of everything including science but that is not the case science can very well exists without philosophy. In fact famous scientists like Hawking questioned the necessity of philosophy. And again a person that studied physics in university for example will never hear the term "Hypothetico-deductive model" as its a purely related to the philosophy of science which is an optional not required course in physics programs for example. I'm ok with not grouping nature of and evidence and nature of evidential relation as philosophy of evidence, so please accept the current iteration of the last paragraph. After this edit im completely content with the current version of the article. [[User:Uni3993|Uni3993]] ([[User talk:Uni3993|talk]]) 22:39, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

== Enquiry ==

Was that you who removed my comment on Dunning-Kruger? And if so, why?

This whole Dunning-Kruger thing is a big mistake and most of what is being written about it is quite incorrect -- even though some of it is being written by bright thoughtful people.

I've been watching is since the beginning with some amusement, and am now concerned that it is morphing into serious academic error -- so I would like to hear from you if you don't see that point.

My e-mail is david.lloydjones@gmail.com (I don't operate anonymously, unlike all the bullshit artists out there) and it would be best if you'd just answer me directly rather than through the cumbersome Wikipedia pages.
Best wishes,
-dlj.
:Hello {{u|David Lloyd-Jones}}, I removed your talk page entry because it does not comply with the talk page guidelines as explained in my edit summary [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect&diff=1083861945&oldid=1083861624 here]: Talk pages are for improving the encyclopedia, not for expressing personal opinions on a subject or an editor. One of our main jobs here is to introduce and summarize the academic discourse on the subject. It's not our job to correct the purported errors that the academic community on a specific topic commits as a whole. Implying that anonymous wikipedia editors are all "bullshit artists" will get you blocked very soon, so I suggest that you are more careful with what expressions you use.

== Undid revision ==

Umm - why did you revert that revision on [[Philosophical methodology]]?  The paragraph is unwieldy to say the least - nearly impenetrable. The paragraph is not a paragraph that anyone wrote; rather, it is the accumulation of multiple revisions and additions over several years.  People keep adding to it, until it looks like the way it does.  "A camel is a horse designed by committee."  The fact of the matter is that the paragraph describes multiple, distinct elements - in other words, it is not a coherent paragraph, per se, and as such readily lends itself to a bullet list. The bullet list was perfectly appropriate.

If you have a better suggestion for improving or restructuring this paragraph, by all means make it, but imperiously declaring that a bullet list is not appropriate for the introduction, and then reverting without making any improvement, is, well, imperious. What do you suggest?  How would you improve this?  How would you make this accessible?  And who are you to decide how this article should look?

[[User:Zweifel|Zweifel]] ([[User talk:Zweifel|talk]]) 18:11, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

:Hi {{u|Zweifel}} and thanks for bringing up the issue. I agree with you that the paragraph is long but I don't think that it is impenetrable or inaccessible. However, the length is to be expected since it constitutes a summary of the section "Methods", which contains the bulk of the material of the whole article. In principle, the idea of converting it into a list is not bad, I agree. As you see in your list, each point corresponds to one of the subsections. Because of this, the list is in one sense superfluous since the content box right below the lead lists all the subsections as well.
:My main objection to your suggestion is that the lead section is not a good place for long lists. If you have a look around at other wikipedia articles on philosophical topics (or, for that matter, on any topic) there are only few articles that use a list in their lead section and even fewer (if any?) that use a very long list.
:Another approach would be to split the paragraph into two, maybe right after the sentence on "ordinary language philosophy". This has the advantage of getting the paragraph size down but it has the disadvantage of having two separate paragraphs summarizing the section "Methods".

:: This was heavy-handed.  You made this decision to revert the edit without consultation on the talk page.  This page does not belong to you.  If you have the perception that lists are inappropriate in introductory sections, so be it, but I have been a Wikipedia editor for quite a long time, and I have a different perception.  You made this change without considering [[Wikipedia:Consensus]].  I literally took the text from the original and displayed it as a list.  I made no substantive change to the article.

:Hello {{u|Lispenard}}, there are various linguistic problems with your suggestions, for example "to grasp Platonic form" ("a Platonic form", "the Platonic form" or "Platonic forms"?), "failing remark" ("a failing remark" or "failing to remark"?), or "ill-able" (unable), among others. I don't want to offend you but it sounds to me that these expressions were originally formed in another language with a quite different structure of articles and prepositions and were then translated word-by-word to English, which usually does not work.

:::::::I checked a few major dictionaries, like the American Heritage Dictionary or Collins Dictionary: they don't have the term "ill-able". However, it's often difficult to draw the line between false and extremely uncommon. Many expressions are acceptable in poetry that constitute errors in regular texts. In normal contexts, for example, countable nouns like "Platonic form" need an article (or a similar expression) in their singular form. It's usually advantageous for encyclopedia articles to choose the formulation the reader is most familiar with, everything else being equal. This is true especially when trying to convey difficult ideas, as in the section on the Platonic theory of thought. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 04:16, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

== Thought experiment about eating cookies ==

Here's your original sentence to which you have reverted:

Having eaten the first cookie, Gifre '''could''' stop eating cookies, which is the best alternative. But after having tasted one cookie, Gifre '''would''' freely decide to continue eating cookies until the whole bag is finished, which would result in a terrible stomach ache and would be the worst alternative.

I don't accept the logic of your reason for reversion, but even if the logic is correct, then in the phrase "'''could''' stop eating cookies", '''could''' should also be '''would'''. I still contend that '''could''' is logically and semantically correct in both instances.

I won't undo your reversion (if at all) at least until I hear your side. [[User:Harry Audus|Harry Audus]] ([[User talk:Harry Audus|talk]]) 22:28, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

:The central point is that Gifre ''would'' decide to continue eating even thought he could stop. This point is lost in your first suggestion. We turn it into a contradiction if we implement your second suggestion by changing "Gifre could stop eating cookies, which is the best alternative" into "Gifre would stop eating cookies, which is the best alternative". In this case, he would stop eating and he would continue eating. It might be helpful for the discussion if you have a short look at the source of this thought experiment in Douglas W.

:Hi {{u|Biogeographist}} and thanks for pointing me to this article. It cites only one source: pages 3 - 11 from "Ideas of the great philosophers" by William S Sahakian and  Mabel Lewis Sahakian. It follows this sources very closely: both contain one short section named "Time", another named "Custom", another named "Intuition", etc. The paraphrase seems to be sufficient that it does not constitute a copyright violation, at least on the first look. And [https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&oldid=1111931940&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1 Earwig] does not report any copyright violations either. But giving so much weight to such a short source text is definitely not a good idea.
:The topic in itself seems to make sense. There are apparently other reliable sources on this topic that could be used, like [https://ndpr.nd.edu/reviews/truth-its-nature-criteria-and-conditions/ here], [https://academic.oup.com/book/27028/chapter-abstract/196299250?redirectedFrom=fulltext here], [https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/philosophy/article/abs/criteria-of-truth/059C9C6274322DEF93B64421E8CDE3A4 here], [https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.2753/CSP1097-1467250211?journalCode=mcsp19 here], and [https://www.jstor.org/stable/2177554 here]. I think it would be a good idea to include them in the text and to modify the text accordingly: it should represent more or less the gist of what most of these sources agree on and not just everything a single source has to say on the topic. This may also reveal some questionable or false information. For example, as far as I know, [[naive realism]] is usually understood as a theory of perception without implying the metaphysical claim that "sounds beyond the range of human hearing" and "x-rays" do not exist. I've added this to the bottom of my todo list, but this may still take quite a while before I get to it, if I do. But I would be happy to assist if you or someone else wants to give it a try. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 16:21, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
::Thanks; those are good points. I just searched for <code>criteri*</code> in ''The Oxford Handbook of Truth'', which turned up some possible leads in multiple chapters, including the chapter on "Truth pluralism", which suggests right away a link to [[Pluralist theories of truth]], which I just added to the article's "See also" section. [[User:Biogeographist|Biogeographist]] ([[User talk:Biogeographist|talk]]) 18:21, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
:::The topic apparently overlaps with [[theories of truth]]. One difference seems to be that theories of truth are mainly about determining the nature of truth while criteria of truth are wider in the sense that they are about how to figure out whether something is true, like looking for possible clues that something is true.

Hi Phlsph7. You've added multiple short form reference ls to this article, without defining what those works are. For instance you've added "''Håkansson & Westander 2013''" but you need to add a full cite to explain what work that is referring to. -- LCU '''[[User:ActivelyDisinterested|ActivelyDisinterested]]''' <small>''∆[[User talk:ActivelyDisinterested|transmissions]]∆'' °[[Special:Contributions/ActivelyDisinterested|co-ords]]°</small> 17:51, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

== Huntsville, Alabama GAN ==

Hi, again, thank you for your original review of the GAN for [[Huntsville, Alabama]]. I've rewritten a lot of the article and changed the things you suggested, and have renominated in. Would you mind reviewing it again? Thank you! --[[User:MyCatIsAChonk|MyCatIsAChonk]] ([[User talk:MyCatIsAChonk|talk]]) 14:40, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

:Hi {{u|MyCatIsAChonk}} and thanks for all the changes following the last nomination. All the "citation needed" tags have been addressed and the unreliable sources were removed. I just spotted a few minor claims that still lack sources:
:*{{tq|Major stations include WHNT 19.1 CBS, WHIQ 25.1 PBS/Alabama Public Television, WAFF 48.1 NBC, and WZDX 54.1 FOX.}}
:*{{tq|The airport is a general aviation airport and does not have any regularly-scheduled commercial services.}}
:*{{tq|The former chief of police was appointed as its director.}}
:*{{tq|These organizations are located in Huntsville but operate both in the city and outside with HCRU responding to many cave rescue calls coming from caves well outside the city limits.}}
:Another thing that caught my eye is that the article has many subsections, which makes the contents overview really long. You could use "{{tlx|TOC limit|3}}" to exclude the subsubsection from the overview. 
:From what I can tell, all the other points from the last review have also been addressed. It looks much better now. It's probably better if someone else does the second review. Good luck with the GAN! [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 16:26, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

I thought [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User%3APhlsph7%2FHighlightUnreferencedPassages&diff=prev&oldid=1138432108&diffmode=source this might be quicker] for reviewers to read.  If you don't like it, please feel free to revert. [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 17:26, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|WhatamIdoing}} Thanks a lot for the help! This makes it much easier to gloss over the information. I think the script does not see explanatory footnotes as references but please let me know if you come across cases where it gets it wrong. Feel free to make more changes if something catches your eye. I usually check the changes so I'll make adjustments if I think something is off the mark. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 17:47, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
::You're welcome.  How does the script interact with these two bits of wikitext?
::* <code><nowiki><ref name="Levi" group="Notes">Levi (2012), pp. 32–37.</ref></nowiki></code>
::* <code><nowiki><ref name="Levi" group="Notes">Numbers are given as thousands of pairs of Levi jeans sold worldwide in each year.</ref></nowiki></code>
::[[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 18:14, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
:::References usually are displayed as "[1][2][3]" while other footnotes usually have the form "[a][b][c]" or "[i][ii][iii]". The script looks whether there is a number inside the brackets. If yes, it sees it a reference. If no, it sees it as an explanatory footnote. Your examples are displayed as "[Notes 1]" and are categorized as references because of the number "1". So the second one is falsely treated as a reference. Do you know if this style is commonly used for references or for notes? It would be relatively easy to modify the script to check whether the term "Notes" appears inside the brackets. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 18:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
:::I just had a look: [[Help:Footnotes#Footnotes:_groups]] and [[WP:EXPLNOTE]] list one style as "[note 1]". it might be a good idea to modify the script for that. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 18:36, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
::::I think the simplest and most reliable way to address this is to document it as a limitation, and then not worry about it ("It's not a bug – it's a feature!").  There are always going to be a certain number of <code><nowiki><ref>Short explanations</ref></nowiki></code> that aren't separated from the list of sources at all, so the problem will exist even if you fix this one.  
::::The opposite problem also exists.  I used a non-standard approach when presenting a specific example in [[Breast cancer awareness#Increased resources for treatment and research]] (end of the first paragraph).  Its primary purpose is "explanatory", but it also contains a source.  I don't think you should set your goal on [[Six Sigma]] levels of success.  It might even be good for it to have some obviously wrong items, to remind reviewers not to blindly do whatever the computer says to do. [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 19:35, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
:::::I went ahead and modified the script to take care of the standards for explanatory footnotes discussed at [[WP:EXPLNOTE]]. But not all articles follow these standards and I'm sure there are many more styles out there not discussed in this document. You are right this should be mentioned as a limitation so I restored a modified version of your explanation. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 09:31, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
::::::Thanks.  I hope your script results in more sources being added.  It sometimes feels like experienced editors spend more time removing (possibly bad) sources than adding them. [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 02:03, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

== Modern use of the word 'conscious' in the article for Experience ==
Today this concept [conscious] has become part of semantics, psychiatry and neurology [meaning, cognition, perception]. When talking in general conversation...try using awareness and natural.

:Hello {{u|Arnbiology}} and thanks for your concern for the article [[Experience]]. I'm not sure what you mean by the claim that {{tq|The lead paragraph for Experience is without category or content}}. The very first sentence associated the term with various categories. And this is a form of content.
:Wikipedia tries to provide a general perspective on its topics and not specifically the perspective associated with process philosophy.

Hello, Phlsph7!

:Hello {{u|Active2023}} and thanks for bringing this to the talk page. One of the key policies of Wikipedia is [[WP:VERIFY]]. It states that "all material must be attributable to reliable, published sources". In this sense, Wikipedia just reports what is already published elsewhere and does not aim to popularize newly conceived ideas, see [[WP:No original research]]. Articles on very general topics, like [[Logic]], should give a bird's-eye view of their field and only go over the most important ideas discussed in the academic literature.

== Logical reasoning Good article review -- On hold ==

Hi Phylsph7. Thank you for your work on the [[Logical reasoning]] wiki. I have completed the [[Talk:Logical reasoning/GA1|initial review]]. I've put it on hold because of a copyright question-mark concerning the Versailles propaganda poster. More details in the comments on 6b. All else was a pass. Please correct or update the image. The caption was good and relevant and I would hate to see you not add any image to your "As a skill" section over a copyright concern especially when propaganda examples are easy to access. Case in point, [[Daddy, what did you do in the Great War?|the top item in the "Did you know..." section for 18 April 2023]] is an example of propaganda you could use. That wiki in fact discusses the logical merits of that British recruitment poster and would be a good example to use in the stead of the Versailles poster. Let me know if you have any questions. I will likely update the review within 24 hours of your corrections.

{{undent}} Yes, I initially tried to adhere to your preferred style by using the {{tl|multiref2}} format.

:Inside multiref2, you can use [[Template:harvnb|harvnb]] instead of sfn, the basic parameters are the same otherwise. It seems "em1589" is the article number used by the publisher.

== philosophy bibliography ==

Hey, I spent a tedious 30+ minutes manually alphabetizing the bibliography on the philosophy page at some point prior to your appending further sources yesterday. I'll integrate those ones, but would you mind observing the alphabetical organization moving forward? Besides just looking cleaner, it makes it easier for other odd folks like me, who typically skim the bibliography to decide if an entry/article/book is even serious enough to be worth reading.

(I did not convert any <ref> citations because I'm really hoping that they mostly drop out over the course of other content-based edits. Also: even more tedious. If we get the article to a place we're happy with, we can deal with those then.)

:On a related note: since our Bibliography subsection is already quite long and keeps on growing, I don't think that we need the long section "Further reading".

::Oh, hey! – If you have a semi-automated way of putting everything in order all at once, then by all means just tack stuff on to the end while you're in the middle of this large-scale edit. I didn't know that was possible. It doesn't bother me if the bibliography is kind of a mess for a few weeks or whatever. My concern was just that if no one did anything now it would only just get worse and worse.
::Also, yes, I agree about getting rid of the Further reading list. These are, in my view, uselessly arbitrary. This is a great time to delete it completely. I can't imagine anyone conferring with even a better curated list.

:::{{ping|PatrickJWelsh}} For now, I just moved them. But I agree with your concerns since the problem was just moved from [[Philosophy]] to [[Outline of philosophy]]. Maybe the best course of action would to remove most of what was moved except for a few of the key works in the subsection [[Outline of philosophy#Reference works]].

== Suggestion ==

Hey Phlsph7, I was reading [[Declarative knowledge]] and I had a suggestion for citing multiple sources in one reference. You may find the [[Template:sfnm]] easier to use and much more aesthetically pleasing. Keep up the great work! Cheers. — [[User:Golden|<span style="color:#0F52BA;">Golden</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Golden|<span style="font-size:82%"><span>''talk''</span></span>]]</sup> 16:44, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

:Hello {{u|Golden}} and thanks for the suggestion. I have considered using the sfnm template. One thing I dislike about it is that it displays all the references in the same line. This can get confusing if there are many references. The multiref2 template uses a new line for each reference, which I find more helpful for readers.

== sfn tool? ==

Hey @[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]], I have no experience working with Wikipedia scripts (although I probably ought to educate myself), but I'm wondering if you have any documentation on the script that, if I understand correctly, you used to at least partially convert ref tags to sfn, or to generate a proper list of works cited?

I've been cleaning up the [[Martin Heidegger]] page, and this could save me a lot of tedious labor. Ref tags work fine on short articles, but on larger articles with long histories they make everything very cluttered. It is more difficult to assess sourcing issues for the article as a whole, and it is also more difficult to edit around all the extra text.

Let me know —

Cheers, [[User:PatrickJWelsh|Patrick J. Welsh]] ([[User talk:PatrickJWelsh|talk]]) 17:50, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|PatrickJWelsh}} I haven't published the script I used because it is very unintuitive, far from foolproof, and does not work for all articles. It's semi-automatic and requires a few manual steps. The first step is manual: all reference-tags need to use one of the cite-templates, like "[[Template:Cite book|cite book]]" or "[[Template:Cite journal|cite journal]]".{{efn|The template "citation" does not work and also needs to be changed to one of the cite-templates.}} Unfortunately, this affects many references (90 by my count) in the Heidegger article:

:You would have to do something like [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Martin_Heidegger&diff=prev&oldid=1172623775 this] for all the others. There would be one more manual step later to ensure that the parameters of the cite templates are in order, but that is usually less of a problem. The rest is automatic (if it works). If you want to go through with the long first step, I would help you with the rest. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 08:00, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

::Thanks so much, though, for offering to help!
::It's genuinely baffling to me how this site doesn't already have (and employ by default) a template for references that would auto-populate a standardized bibliography. But I guess that's neither here nor there.
::Cheers, [[User:PatrickJWelsh|Patrick J. Welsh]] ([[User talk:PatrickJWelsh|talk]]) 15:40, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
:::{{ping|PatrickJWelsh}} The amount of work depends a lot on the state of the article. In the case of [[Philosophy]], it was not too much work since most references already used the cite-templates. My impression is that the sfn-format is more of a standard for GAs and FAs while most other articles depend on regular ref-tags.

== Improving "Motivation"  ==

Hi I saw you want to improve the [[Motivation]] article. A while ago I followed a sports psychology class who also extensively discussed the topic of motivation. Things that might be interesting to write about are: Nature vs nurture (Scientists still discuss what is the bigger factor that leads to motivation or a combination of both), examples per type of motivation: for example extrinsic motivation is caused by: money, rewards, fear of punishment, while intrinsic is caused by autonomy, belonging, curiosity etc. Maybe write something about the flow channel by csikszentmihalyi. Can't find the model itself on Wikipedia but it is being taught at schools and important to understand what causes someone to be motivated (Self-efficacy, Autonomy, Level of challenge, Level of skill) if these are just right you get into that "flow channel". Interesting topic! [[User:Coldbolt|Coldbolt]] ([[User talk:Coldbolt|talk]]) 14:53, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

:Hello {{u|Coldbolt}} and thanks for the suggestions. Having examples of the different types of motivation is a good idea. One difficulty with articles on very broad topics, and also a problem with the article in its current form, is that one has to be very selective about what to include. As far as I'm aware, Csikszentmihalyi's theories are usually not discussed in detail in overview works on motivation. But maybe a remark can be added in the section on intrinsic motivation. I'll keep an eye on this as I go about the literature review and I'll see if it is justified to include something.

== GA review of [[Shrewsbury]] ==

Hi, Thanks for your comments when reviewing the article about [[Shrewsbury]]. One comment I didn't quite follow was: "avoid American English (travellers)", what word would you suggest in preference?

My apologies, but I am certain that at least 90% of what you thought was not sourced was. I added yet more references, and I am now confident that 95-99% is sourced.

== Infinite regress ==

Can you please explain why you reverted my edit? The referenced article does support the thesis that this is a theoretical physically consistent possibility? [[User:Strecosaurus|Strecosaurus]] ([[User talk:Strecosaurus|talk]]) 22:36, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

:Hello {{u|Strecosaurus}} and thanks for your efforts at improving this article. The main reason why I removed this addition was that it is not supported by the source: the source does not discuss infinite regresses anywhere. Another reason is that the claim it makes is possibly false: not everything that is infinite is an infinite regress. 
:As a sidenote: I saw that you added the specific source [https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02338 https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.02338] to several different articles. This could be considered a form of reference spamming, see [[WP:REFSPAM]]. If you are personally associated with this source or its author then you need to declare your conflict of interest (see [[WP:COI]]). In this case, it would probably be best not to avoid this type of editing. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 07:19, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

== Stones ==

While I have got nothing against you as a person, I am somewhat annoyed by your comments at the RfC. I don't think it is fair to say I'm trying to "put stones in people's way"; I'm trying to establish the minimal possible framework of policy for breathing room to explore the potential of a new technology. You may have noticed that, every time there's one of those big project-wide discussions about LLMs, there's a sizeable contingent of people who simply say that they're garbage and we need to ban them entirely -- I will also note that this contingent grows larger in direct proportion to the amount of slop that is poured into the new pages feed. If we refuse to do ''anything at all'' about this issue, even the smallest token gesture, it is not going to result in a bright new sunny day for LLM enjoyers. <b style="font-family: monospace; color:#E35BD8">[[User:JPxG|<b style="color:#029D74">jp</b>]]×[[Special:Contributions/JPxG|<b style="color: #029D74">g</b>]][[User talk:JPxG|🗯️]]</b> 09:25, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|JPxG}} Thanks for letting me know how you feel and I regret that my comments annoyed you. My criticism expressed in the stone-comment was not directed at you as a person but at {{tq|"the policy in its current formulation"}}. I appreciate all the effort you have poured into the project of addressing inappropriate LLM uses. The change I proposed to the current formulation was meant as a contribution to this project. My impression is that the two of us agree that LLMs are both useful and dangerous and that a middle way is required to harness their potential while minimizing their downsides.

== Section "Beginning of communication" for the article "Communication" ==

Hi Phlsph7! Thank you for your valuable comments and appreciating my efforts. Do you think that a concise explanation of the topic (the beginning of communication) might be available in another already existing section as a short part of it (e.g., in “Communication Studies”)? Best regards, [[User:Ana Padovana|Ana Padovana]] ([[User talk:Ana Padovana|talk]]) 13:57, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

:Hello {{u|Ana Padovana}} and thanks for your effort at improving this article and your detailed research. The section "Communication studies" is supposed to give a concise overview of the most important developments and topics in this field. I don't think that the theories covered in your addition are widely discussed in communication studies. The main article [[Communication studies]] has some more space for details. You could try adding one or two sentences to that article if the sources on communication studies support it.
:As a side note: I saw that you added similar sections to other articles on broad topics. There is a chance that they have similar problems. Many of your contributions cover shared intentionality and mention Michael Tomasello. If you have a [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]], for example, because you are personally associated with some of the authors and/or publications, then you have to declare that.

::I found a way to mention communication between mother and fetus in one sentence. This is not a major topic relative to communication in general so I don't think a detailed discussion is justified. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 18:36, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
:::Hi, Thank you for mentioning the topic of "beginning of communication" in the article. The origin of any appearance in Nature is a crucial part of its essence. To my mind, ‘refining the theoretical understanding of communication’ is impossible without studying its beginning. While one sentence is better than zero, the sentence "Some basic forms of communication happen even before birth between mother and embryo and include information about nutrition and emotions" may create many critical comments. For example, what does this sentence mean by the definition of ‘basic forms of communication’ between two organisms that cannot interact through the sensory system: one of them is in a womb and does not possess abstract thinking to interact through a coding system being at the reflexes stage of development? This is precisely the central point of the problem.
:::‘Communication studies covers a wide area overlapping with many other disciplines, such as biology, anthropology, psychology, sociology, linguistics, media studies, and journalism.’(the section ‘Communication studies’ of the article) Therefore human in se, in the meaning of "homo sapiens," plays an essential role in communication studies; communication and cognition are closely related topics (they only exist in co-existence). Even though it may seem that the origins of communication is a novel topic for communication studies, it has been intensively discussed in the context of the topic of cognition since the XIX century. Famous thinkers Kant, children development psychologists Piaget and Vygotsky, and modern scientists such as cognitive psychologist Anne Treisman contributed to this knowledge. 
:::The significance of knowledge about the beginning of communication cannot be overestimated since it can show new research directions for developing the notion of communication. 
:::I do not think that one or two questions may explain this broad issue.
:::I am really confused by your question about a conflict of interest. No, I'm not paid to edit Wiki. However, I like this topic of beginning cognition and know some scientists working in this area. Some of them, I do not like. I sympathize with Tomasello's ideas and could call myself his follower, although I do not know him personally. Whether or not it means that I am personally associated with these scientists? Thank you for posing the question. Thank you for the kind and prompt response! Best regards, [[User:Ana Padovana|Ana Padovana]] ([[User talk:Ana Padovana|talk]]) 22:24, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
::::The article discusses various forms of communication, including communication between plants, between cells, and between non-living entities. Given this background, I don't think that communication between mother and fetus is a particularly problematic phenomenon. If the sentence can be formulated in a way that avoids the problem you see then we could consider it.
::::I suggest that you read [[WP:COI]]. It is not restricted to paid editing. If you are merely a fan of Tomasello or another author you cite but have no contact with them then you don't need to worry about conflict of interest. If you are personally associated with them or if some of the papers you cite are your own or from a research group you are associated with then it could be conflict of interest. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 17:11, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
:::::Thank you for the kind proposal! I would suggest this (additionally to your sentence) if you prefer a short form:

:::::Here is just one more comment supporting Michael Tomasello. In 2022, he received the David Rumelhart Prize in the Cognitive Science Society as an award for his insights into cognition evolution and, specifically, the knowledge development about the contribution of shared intentionality to cognition and social reality formation. Moreover, he was awarded: Jean Nicod Prize, Paris, 2006; Mind and Brain Prize, University of Torino, 2007; Hegel Prize, Stuttgart, 2009; Oswald Külpe Prize, University of Würzburg, 2009; Max Planck Research Prize, 2010; Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award, American Psychological Association, 2015 and many others. Best regards, [[User:Ana Padovana|Ana Padovana]] ([[User talk:Ana Padovana|talk]]) 06:03, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
::::::Thanks for the suggestion. I'm sorry if I'm a bit slow, but I don't understand why it is necessary to present this example in the light of Tomasello's novel theory of shared intentionality. I checked the two sources of the example and they mention neither Tomasello nor shared intentionality.
::::::The main point of this subsection is to explain non-verbal communication. Communication between mother and embryo is merely used as an example. If this example is as problematic as you say and can only be discussed through the lens of a novel theory that introduces unexplained concepts to the reader then it may be better to remove the example.

== Transmission and reception.  ==

Hi, first of all I would like to record my appreciation of the work you have done on the various pages around Communication.

I would normally have just made an edit rather than talk but given the featured article status and your work etc thought I would talk first. 

I suggest that the first line read:
 
"Communication is usually understood to be the transmission ''and reception'' of information." 

(Italics just to show my addition). 

In my work simply transmitting data has often not resulted in comprehension by the listener/reader. I would support my suggested change by using the Oxford Dictionary of Media and Communication (amongst other texts) which emphasises interaction rather than transmission. (see https://www-oxfordreference-com.wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org/display/10.1093/acref/9780198841838.001.0001/acref-9780198841838-e-413?rskey=h9ldXT&result=1)

Would you support this addition as I think it would help set the scene for the rest of the article especially for those new to the subject ??

Happy to hear your views.

:Hello {{u|Johnmarkh}} and thanks for the feedback and bringing this to the talkpage. Your reasoning makes sense but many definitions put much more stress on transmission than on reception. I agree that for good communication, the reception part is key, but I'm not sure that this needs to be emphasized in the first sentence (see [[MOS:LEADCLUTTER]]) rather explaining it later. A shorter alternative would be "exchange of information". However, this is also not ideal, since it implies that information goes back and forth, which is not always the case. The precise definition is a difficult and controversial subject, as discussed in the section [[Communication#Definitions]].

Hello there. I have no particular justification for assuming you either have the time or the inclination for this particular article—I suspect it's not squarely in your wheelhouse—but I've been working on [[Zhuangzi (book)|''Zhuangzi'' (book)]], and my goal is to get it to FA status. I would like to actively emulate your work in its usefulness, elegance, and concision—I've just acquired your Flesch scoring script, as like many others I struggle to tune sentences for maximum ease and clarity, so I really should've found this before. It will be a godsend.<br style="margin-bottom:0.5em"/>I would like to keep the article under 5000 words, for no other reason than simply bluntly preventing the worst excesses. The largest omission to my eyes is a proper discussion of historical commentaries—which I don't expect any particular expertise in from most anyone on English Wikipedia, of course—but lacking further expertise it is a bit overwhelming looking down the barrel of such an important work in the history of philosophy, and trying to weigh all its different themes as have been analyzed throughout history.<br style="margin-bottom:0.5em"/>In any case, thank you in advance for any input you may or may not have, and thank you for the excellent work and the inspiration.

:Hello {{u|Remsense}}, thanks for the feedback and I'm happy to hear that the readability script is helpful! Your project is interesting and keeping the article below 5000 words sounds like a good idea. I've added a few observations below but keep in mind that while I have some rough ideas about Taoism, I know very little about this book itself. 
:* I agree that having more on historical commentaries would be a good idea. You might find [https://iep.utm.edu/zhuangzi-chuang-tzu-chinese-philosopher/#H4] helpful and some information can be found at [https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/zhuangzi/#Competing]. 
:* It might also be good to discuss relativism in the themes-section. [https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/zhuangzi/#Relativism] has some information on this. 
:* Have you considered giving more space in the themes section to wu wei and to how the book responds to other currents in Chinese philosophy, such as Mohism?
:* {{tq|The Zhuangzi (Chinese: 莊子, historically romanized Chuang Tzŭ) is a work of Chinese literature written during the late Warring States period (476–221 BC), named for its traditional author "Master Zhuang".}} You could consider turning the first into the second sentence since the more import fact seems to be that it is a foundational texts of Taoism. Something along the lines "The Zhuangzi is one of the foundational texts of Taoism. It was written during...". Another thought would be to be to move the expression in the parenthesis to the body of the article (see [[MOS:LEADCLUTTER]]).
:* {{tq|Stein and Pelliot ultimately took most of manuscripts back to Europe}} add "the" before "manuscripts"
:* {{tq|The Zhuangzi is most influential work of pure literature written}} add "the" before "most"
:* {{tq|Zhuangzi did not entirely abandon language and reason, but "only wished to point out that over-dependence on them could limit the flexibility of thought"}} This formulation be read as implying that the quote is from Zhuangzi.

Hi, Phlsph7. Enjoyed working with you at [[Communication]]. Just wondering what you are up to, these days? Any interest in philosophy of law? Have been getting into [[philosophy of law]], especially [[legal positivism]], and one of its proponents [[Hans Kelsen]], but to some extent precursors like [[John Austin (legal philosopher)|John Austin]], and successors like [[H.L.A. Hart]]. I don't have a legal background at all, but the philosophy of what is law and where does it come from and what is it based on is fascinating. If you know zip about this, I could recommend some intro videos by Jeffrey Kaplan, asst. prof. of philo at UNC Greensboro; a good starting point is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWsw2Wai9BI&t=1s Legal Positivism - the dominant theory in jurisprudence] but all his videos are packed with information and a great intro. One tip before you even get into it: that's ''positivism'' as in, "that which is posited", not about something "positive" (as opposed to negative). Maybe calling it, "Legal positism" would've avoided a lot of the initial confusion about the term. Anyway, lmk what you are up to, would be fun to collaborate on something else.

== Linguistic structure diagram ==

Hello again—I'm curious if you have any further thoughts on the [[:File:major levels of linguistic structure.svg|linguistic structure diagram]] you took removed from [[Semantics]]! Coincidentally, I've been getting my hands dirty pondering how to rewrite [[Morphology (linguistics)|Morphology]] a few rungs inward. While I am generally much more "familiar" with the inner rings, I have definitely appreciated how none of them perfectly contain the others at any level. However, in the broadest strokes, the diagram seemed fairly representative and helpful at the very introduction of an encyclopedia article, from what I've understood: phone → phoneme → morpheme, word → phrase, sentence at the very least is "true enough" for a visual aid while obscuring considerable complexity and dimension (for example, like that of [[written language]] as not wholly [[phonocentrically]] sourced), but it certainly seems that phrase → semantics gives me pause. Do you think some form of this diagram is viable? I would be interested in perhaps redesigning it, if so. [[User:Remsense|<span style="border-radius:2px 0 0 2px;padding:3px;background:#1E816F;color:#fff">'''Remsense'''</span>]][[User talk:Remsense|<span lang="zh" style="border:1px solid #1E816F;border-radius:0 2px 2px 0;padding:1px 3px;color:#000">诉</span>]] 13:38, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

:{{ping|Remsense}} I agree with you that the diagram can be quite helpful to get a rough understanding of the relation between these different fields. My main concern is that the different fields are often presented as distinct branches in the analysis of language. For example, from [https://books.google.com/books?id=E2SA8ao0yMAC&pg=PA4]: {{tq|One traditional distinction in language analysis contrasts pragmatics with syntax and semantics.}} The danger with the diagram is that readers might jump to the conclusion that semantics is a subfield of pragmatics and syntax is a subfield of semantics, which is not how the reliable sources usually treat their relations. If the diagram is taken from an author that makes these claims then one solution could be to attribute this view to them, maybe with an added footnote that others see it differently. Another approach might be to remove, add, rearrange, or relabel the levels in the diagram but I'm not sure how to solve the problem this way. The diagram is used in various articles so finding some kind of solution would be important. [[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]] ([[User talk:Phlsph7#top|talk]]) 14:00, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

== "which" / "that" for relative clauses ==

Hi Phlsph7. In your close of the [[Talk:Auckland/GA1|Auckland GAN]] you observed cases where "which" should be replaced with "that". Personally I support that, but I wonder about the basis for it being a standard for GAs, given that it is a point of dispute (according to [[English relative clauses#That or which for non-human antecedents]]). Do we have a basis for it? I'll be happy if we do. Thanks. [[User:Nurg|Nurg]] ([[User talk:Nurg|talk]]) 09:35, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

:Hello {{u|Nurg}} and thanks for raising this point. As far as the GA criteria go, this would fall under [[WP:GA?|criterion 1a]] about the article being well-written. Given that various style guides recommend using "that" for restrictive relative clauses, it's probably preferable to follow their suggestion unless there is a good reason otherwise. But this is a matter of degree and I wouldn't insist on this point as a GA standard or double down that the nominator changes it if they disagree.

== GA review of Billy Ballew Motorsports ==

Hi, and thanks for reviewing the article. I saw that it was reviewed and it was nominated under my name. However, my concern is that I didn't nominate it at all? Someone else seemed to have nominated it under my name: [[User:MysticCipher87|MysticCipher87]] put the review up and seemingly put it under my name. I didn't do anything. I'm confused as to how I'm the nominator? I also had barely made any edits related to the article or its talk page, either. Something about this feels odd. Cheers, and carpe diem! [[User:Nascar9919|<span style="color:#115217">Nascar9919</span>]] (he/him • [[User talk:Nascar9919|t]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nascar9919|c]]) 13:05, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

:* @[[User:Phlsph7|Phlsph7]]: Another note: I never knew this was put under my name until I saw the failure. Also, from what I can tell after looking through their edits, they seemed to have copied my signature and changed the visuals and not the actual links themselves. Cheers, and carpe diem!

:*:{{ping|Nascar9919}} Sorry for the confusion and thanks for clarifying the issue. I was a little confused about this point as well since the [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Billy_Ballew_Motorsports&oldid=1220910639 article talkpage] showed MysticCipher87 as the nominator while the [[Talk:Billy_Ballew_Motorsports/GA2|review page]] and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Good_article_nominations&oldid=1221005680 GA overview page] show you as the nominator. I had assumed that a name change was responsible. If the nomination template was filled out with errors, that would explain the mismatch. There was also another problem about the GA page number: the GA page was [[Talk:Billy_Ballew_Motorsports/GA2]] with a page number of 2 even though there is no [[Talk:Billy_Ballew_Motorsports/GA1]]. This could have happened if MysticCipher87 just copied the nomination template from an article that you had previously nominated.

{{od}} I posted the question to [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]] at  [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Gog_the_Mild#Procedural_question]. I did my best to represent the disagreement fairly. He said rephrasing to idealists was OR in his opinion, and in my opinion, he is a WP god and an FA authority. Call upon me anytime you feel a need to be roasted over the coals for any reason. [[User:Jenhawk777|Jenhawk777]] ([[User talk:Jenhawk777|talk]]) 22:15, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

:Thanks for probing more deeply into this issue. I surely don't want to argue with a WP god and an FA authority on this particular case so I'll restrict myself to a more general observation. As I understand the linguistic level, a generic usage of "X-ists" and "the X-ist" is sometimes employed to describe the view of "X-ism" (and vice versa). This seems to be the case, for example, in [https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/materialism-eliminative/] (first paragraph: materialism/materialists) and in [https://iep.utm.edu/dualism-and-mind/] (lead section and the section "1. Dualism": dualism/dualists/the dualist). It may depend on the context whether generic reference is meant and it's possible that this was not the case for the disputed passage.

== [[History of Christianity]] ==

Hi! You were recommended to me as someone who might be willing to help get this article to FA status. It's a big long article, but it's also a "flagship" article, and it seems to me only right that it should be among our best accordingly - but I need help. I have never had an FA. Please give it a once over if at all possible! Any and all comments will be appreciated. Thank you! [[User:Jenhawk777|Jenhawk777]] ([[User talk:Jenhawk777|talk]]) 18:14, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

:{{ping|Jenhawk777}} That definitely is a big and important project. It's probably not the easiest article to get started with FA. Form a first look, it seems to be well written and researched. It's quite long at 12900 words prose size (see [[WP:SIZERULE]]) but may be acceptable given the scope of the topic.
:A few observations:
:* [[WP:EARWIG]] detects no copyvios.
:* {{tq|The earliest were the University of Bologna (1088), the University of Oxford (1096), and the University of Paris where the faculty was of international renown (c. 1150).}} needs a reference
:* the paragraph starting with {{tq|Luther, Huldrych Zwingli, and many others protested}} is unsourced
:* Monter 2020 is listed in the source section but not cited in the article
:* For some sources without a page number, you set the parameter "p" of the sfn template to "n/a". A better alternative might be to use the parameter "loc" instead to refer to named sections where the claims are found, e.g. "loc=§ 1. Introduction" instead of "p=n/a", or to remove the parameter altogether.
:* {{tq|Both&nbsp;Islam&nbsp;and crusade negatively impacted Eastern Christianity}} should this be "the Crusades"?
:* {{tq|By the sixth century, there is evidence for Christian communities}} replace "for" with "of"
:* {{tq|One of the oldest representation of Jesus}} replace "representation" with "representations"
:* {{tq|Early Christianity's system of beliefs and morality have been}} subject-verb agreement error: system ... have
:* {{tq|ordinary people that Roman culture}} replace "that" with "whom"
:* {{tq|is affirmed in the fourth century Milan edict}} replace "fourth century" with "fourth-century"
:* {{tq|First century Christian writings}} replace "First century" with "First-century"
:* {{tq|This destigmatized illness, transformed health care in Antiquity, and led}} remove both commas
:* {{tq|expressing tolerance for all religions, legalizing Christian worship}} add "and" before "legalizing"
:* {{tq|local leaders and lower level clergy were}} replace "lower level" with "lower-level"
:* I'm not sure about the exact rules, the article keeps switching between uppercase and lower case of the terms "west"/"western" and "east"/"eastern", for example {{tq|but large sections of the Western church remained unconvinced}} and {{tq|doctrinal supremacy over the western church}}
:* {{tq|few councils that occur in the early}} replace "occur" with "occured"
:* {{tq|it was the Nestorian churches who were best}} replace "who" with "that"
:* I think "the Crusades" should always be uppercase
:* {{tq|Constantinople remained its capitol and}} replace "capitol" with "capital"
:* {{tq|led folk to believe&nbsp;the end of the world&nbsp;was immanent.}} replace "immanent" with "imminent"
:* there are various duplicate links (see [[WP:DUPLINK]]) across the article, for example, [[Roman Empire]] and [[Christendom]] in the lead section. [[User:Evad37/duplinks-alt]] might be helpful.
:* The talk page says that the article uses British English. For consistency:
:** replace "center" with "centre"
:** replace "equaled" with "equalled"
:** replace "favored " with "favoured"
:** replace "favor" with "favour"
:** replace "practicing " with "practising"
:** replace "color" with "colour"
:** replace "traveled" with "travelled"
:** replace "behaviors" with "behaviours"

== Dunning-Kruger Effect ==

You removed the "controversy" section from the [[Dunning-Kruger]] effect page. The page now reads like there is no controversy about it at all. (As if the very fact that you removed it, didn't emphasize it?) Is this an accurate reflection on the body of knowledge surrounding it, objectively, or only so in your opinion? I leave this question for you to ponder and research, and to reconsider your contributions to the article to bring it more in line with reflecting the body of knowledge surrounding it. [[User:Dagelf|Dagelf]] ([[User talk:Dagelf|talk]]) 08:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

:Hello, thanks for your comment and your contributions to the article [[Dunning–Kruger effect]]. I assume you are referring to text you added in March 2024, which I removed shortly afterwards. The reason was that the text "{{tq|mostly repeats information from the section "Explanations", mostly without proper sourcing}}". If you feel that the section "Explanations" ignores major positions or disagreements, I would be happy to have a look the ignored sources and make adjustments if necessary.

== [[Solid South]] article improvements for GA ==

I believe I added citations for every paragraph that was missing them, and changed the wording in the specific sentences you mentioned. Are there any other issues for [[Solid South]] that need improvement for it to merit being a Good Article, per [[Wikipedia:Good article criteria]]? [[User:JohnAdams1800|JohnAdams1800]] ([[User talk:JohnAdams1800|talk]]) 02:32, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

:{{ping|JohnAdams1800}} Thanks for adding all the references, the sourcing looks much better now!

== Applause! ==

When I saw today's front page I wondered if you were the author of the featured article, and lo, you are! I'm not the smallest use to you in reviews because my stolidly earthbound mind does not cope with abstract concepts, but I recognise talent and dedication when I see them, and I take my hat off to you.

Congratulations, and thank you today for [[Existence]], introduced: "Existence is the state of having reality. Often contrasted with essence, it is a wide and fundamental concept associated with various tricky problems, such as the status of imaginary entities like Santa Claus." --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 07:11, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Today I have two "musicians" on the Main page, one is also the topic of [[User:Gerda Arendt/Stories#7 Aug|my story]], watch and listen, - I like today's especially because you see him at work, hear him talk about his work and the result of his work - rare! --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 14:36, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

On 13 August, [[User:Gerda Arendt/Stories#13 Aug|Bach's cantata was 300 years old]], and the image one. The cantata is an extraordinary piece, using the chorale's text and famous melody more than others in [[Chorale cantata cycle|the cycle]]. It's nice to have not only a recent death, but also this "birthday" on the Main page. And a rainbow in my places. --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 13:49, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
