message: It seems im not the only person that thinks this page should link to a self reference -- is there no acceptable way of doing this?? --Davelane 21:06, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Wikipedia criticism

message: It seems that this article should be moved to Criticism (which re-directs here) and expanded to become an introduction and overview to the field. Any objections? -- Samuel Wantman 20:29, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This move seems like a good idea. On this occasion, the article could also be rewritten a bit, since it seems slightly POV focusing too much on presenting criticism as a good thing only. 62.235.137.140 12:28, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm. Then perhaps there should be a new article. Criticism of Criticism? (-; --Munkel (talk) 13:11, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move to [[Criticism]] 

message: Re  OTHERS.  Constructive criticism, the article informs us, may have to appear harsh and judgemental. Well, criticism directed towards our own work will certainly never "have to" be harsh and judgmental, so what the authors of the article have in mind can only be the well-founded criticism that we ourselves direct towards other people with the intention of generously offering them our assistance. And, as luck will have it, we find this explicitly confirmed in the following passage: Constructive criticism is the process of offering valid and well-reasoned opinions about the work of others with the intention of helping the reader or artist (emphasis added). --BZ(Bruno Zollinger) 09:16, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Constructive Criticism

message: There is a view that pessimists tend to be generally more critical than optimists. Is it true? 83.228.89.2 (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Criticism is pessimistic

message: *I have split Critic#Critique into page Critique. I have corrected the link to "critique" in page Anders Westenholz. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:28, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Critique 

message: Not only is the lack of sources misleading. The article presents them in an archaic and inaccurate manner. -Atosecond (talk) 04:52, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Constructive/Destructive Criticism 

message: There is little here about the psychology of criticism for example no mention of nitpicking or the fact that narcissists often hate being criticised. 
Also the article should be called Criticism not Critic which has a narrower meaning. --Penbat (talk) 10:45, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Psychology of Criticism 

message: I removed the term "psychic inverse" because there is no definition given for that term. Since the hyper-link pointed to Dialectic and the Harvard quote fits the term Dialectic, I changed the terminology to Dialectic. Please do not revert without an explanation and definition.

thread_title:  Changed "psychic inverse" term to "Dialectic" 

message: My problem with this page is that a critic can actually mean 2 different things. The first meaning, covered on the page, is a person who offers judgements on creative works etc. However there is also a second definition and that is someone who expresses a negative opinion of something. In my view this definition should be included alongside the one already given. Firestar47 (talk) 21:42, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
