Talk:Conversation theory

Development of article.

edit

I've added some direct citations from Pask's books. The plan is to develop the article more significantly on my part. If there are any issues with what I have written or what I will write in future, feel free to change it if you feel you have adequate justification to. Anything which can improve the article impact in Wikipedia is welcome.Scibernetics Anon (talk) 21:37, 6 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've updated the initial blurb of the article a bit to make what it is more consise (but less specific) for the general audience. While I do have my own biases regarding how conversation theory should be defined, I have kept it as general (yet concise) as possible to give people who aren't familiar with the theory a sense of what it is and how it relates to education and psychology. I may in the near future move parts of the beginning section down into the main overview as I feel it is more relevant there, but if there are any issues with this on behalf of other editors please let me know.--Scibernetics Anon (talk) 14:31, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

The notability of Conversation Theory

edit

"Conversation Theory" has a google-rate of 23.800, with hundreds of real links. It seems to be more then just an idea from Gordon Pask, but developed into a scientific paradigm, to which multiple scientists contributed. - Mdd 10:05, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

As a start I have established notability with three indepent links, by examining the first google-links. If there is any reason to further question notability, please let me know first. - Mdd 10:23, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Normally the evidence of notability should be provided in the form of references, as opposed to just in the list of external links. If you'll say which ones you believe are independent reliable sources, I can help put them in as refs. The other refs could use some work, too, to put them into a useful form.

In my opinion there are two thinks here as in the Management cybernetics:

  1. The establisment if the subject is notable enough
  2. The collection of a good set of representative independent references

Now you know as well as I, that you don't establish the notability of a subject by just checking if the references are representative and independent. Hell no. More then half of all wikipedia articles lack a good set of references. To establish notability you have to create a picture of the role the subject playes in the field of study? Do you understand were this leads to? - Mdd 20:01, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

WP does not normally upcase theories, models, laws, rules.

Per WP:MOSCAPS ("Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization") and WP:TITLE, this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. Lowercase will match the formatting of related article titles. Tony (talk) 01:46, 4 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
