Straw poll and discussion concerning what outlines should be called

edit

A discussion is underway that may affect the name of this article.

See: Wikipedia talk:Outlines#Should articles named "Outline of x" be renamed to "List of x topics"?

Quick explanation of Wikipedia outlines

edit

"Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation. The Transhumanist 00:12, 9 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Excessive citations

edit

There appears to be many, many citations in this article that do not appear necessary. Per discussion User talk:CASSIOPEIA/Archive 25#Outline of Catholic canon law I think most, if not all, the citations can be removed. Some seem arbitrary, and the huge lack of citations in other sections makes the page seem weirdly disjointed and unbalanced. Fpr155 (talk) 16:56, 17 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
