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 00:11, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
How do we know the chimpanzee is thinking?
editMaybe it just looks like it's thinking. Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 06:22, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
The chimpanzee shows metacognition which is a sufficient criterion for cognition and therefore thinking in general. 84.119.3.225 (talk) 15:29, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
Doesn't emotion influence thinking?
editBecause if I'm angry I think different thoughts than when I'm calm. Shouldn't we therefore add Emotion to Aspects of the thinker? 84.119.3.225 (talk) 15:29, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
