I don't pretend to be an expert on logical fallacies, and certainly not on their Latin names. But, even so, the example and the claimed meaning of arg. ad crumenam given here don't match. Some expert in one or the other is needed to untangle this arg. ad mismatch. ww
This is a valid logical fallacy, I'll ref it. Please wait on the CSD. 69.116.150.174 18:13, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Would this (Argumentum ad crumenam) be the same as "Millions Of People Can't Be Wrong"?
- No; that would be Argumentum ad populum -DasRakel (talk) 23:43, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Merge
editThese are both puny articles about appealing to a person's level of wealth. Let's at least merge them into one. Richard001 (talk) 08:31, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Support merge. It is really unsatifsfying to read such stubs. Leaving redirect in place will make the information just as easy to find, but put it in better context.Yobmod (talk) 12:47, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- Weak Support. There probably isn't much more that can be said for either - in fact, it might be possible to merge them both into Argumentum ad verecundiam, as they're both subsets of that. Tevildo (talk) 23:20, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose both articles are very short, and both should be, there is little to say. There is no logical way to combine them (what would the title be, afterall? Dondegroovily (talk) 03:11, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Solely?
edit"An argumentum ad crumenam [..] is the formal fallacy of concluding that a statement is correct solely because the speaker is rich"
I don't think so. If I conclude that a statement is correct because the speaker is rich and old, it is still ad crumenam. Even if I conclude that a statement is correct because the speaker is rich and his reasoning is sound, it is still ad crumenam. Are there any sources for the "solely"? --Hob Gadling (talk) 12:19, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
- No sources forthcoming, so I removed it. --Hob Gadling (talk) 13:19, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
