Seeking for a consensus regarding the "philosophical pessimism" template

Greetings, all.

The user "Paranakyaa" has recently argued against me in these edits (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Template:Philosophical_pessimism&action=history) that many of the links to the template "philosophical pessimism" should be in red merely because they do not have a Misplaced Pages article still existing for them.

I, on the other hand, tried to argue against them by stating that such red links are unnecessary and make the template look aesthetically unpleasant.

After that, he appealed to the supposed fact there is a "consensus" that such links should be red (https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Categories,_lists,_and_navigation_templates#Navigation_templates).

I still maintain my original position, but have no further intent nor energy to engage in any kind of "edit war" with them. If there is still no Misplaced Pages article existing for these works, the fact that they are not dyed in the color blue already indicates this; there is no need to make so many works in the template dyed in the color red.

I am curious as to other users think about this. Please do share your opinion so that we might, in fact, reach a "consensus". Alice793 (talk) 15:51, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Universal dialectic

The article Universal dialectic has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. Spam bucket. Vandal bait. Not enough information to merge, and no obvious targets for a redirect. Delete and salt, please.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Notability of Jean Laplanche

Was he notable enough that he should have a separate page on his works at Jean Laplanche bibliography, which was recently created by Honigfrau. I have seen these for nobel laureates, but I feel as part of WP:NPP this question should be asked. I will also post to psychology. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:58, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Need help disambiguating several "Mental object"-esque articles

Currently "Mental object" redirects to Mental world, which seems to be a philosophy-related stub. However, there are several articles that seem to be talking about roughly the same concept, and I'm not sure why these are all seperate:

• Object of the mind

• Mental representation

• Mental image

and possibly

• Concept
• Conceptual model
• Mental model

"Mental world" seems like It should be more about a representation of reality, rather than an individual object.

So, for a start, I think "Mental object" redirect should be changed to "Object of the mind", which I can go ahead and do. But other than that, I think there needs to be some discussion about clarifying what these articles are about, adding {{About}}/{{For}} hatnotes to each of the articles to clarify their distinction, and possibly merging some.

Sidenote: It seems reasonable that WikiProject Psychology might be interested in this discussion. I might make a post there directing here. Farkle Griffen (talk) 03:53, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Category:Philosophy of love is incoherent

This category seems to contain a large number of items that don't belong, or should be directly in Category:Love. In particular, it is part of the cateogry loop Category:Philosophy of love → Category:Intimate relationships → Category:Love, with an alternative loop through Category:Human sexuality between "Intimate relationships" and "Love". –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:27, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
