Expansion and changes
editHi everyone, I will be working on expanding this page and perhaps rewriting what is already here very shortly. Let me know if you have any questions. Jsercar (talk) 16:55, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
Noteworthiness?
editI wonder the Proteus effect is notable enough to warrant an article in Wikipedia. As far as I can tell very few researchers beyond Bailenson and his students have used the term. (see the results of a Google scholar search using 'psychology "proteus effect"' as the keywords). Robertekraut (talk) 22:44, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
- The English needs a tweak, but I would say so - it might not make peer reviewed encyclopediae, but isn't that the whole point of Wikipedia? Much of our host here seems devoted to sports and media personalities, whose notability in the great scheme of things (if there is one) is questionable at best. The more articles there are on psychological principles - even obscure psychological principles - the happier I'll be.
- Though it is, of course, entirely possible that I'm just saying that to fit with an on-line persona....

It is proposed to effect a great change of diction, syntax, grammar &c.
editUnless somebody objects, I intend presently to copy-edit this article. My reasons for doing so are three:
- The grammar is anomalous, awkward and in places incorrect.
- The language used is in places ambiguous or may require additional clarification.
- The subject is not adequately clarified in an overview section.
If there is any particular concern that you should like to raise, please mention it here before revising it. The exceptions to this request comprehend the correction of spelling, an amendment for the purpose of clarity and the rearrangement of syntax.
