message: The opening part of this is too long. It shouldn't be more than about 10 sentences giving a clear, concise overview. Some of the stuff in the first part needs to be moved down to the lower sections.

thread_title:  Opening too long 

message: 1 Corinthians 13:2 and Philippians 1:9 talk about charity, but do not mean good deeds or donations. 
They mean grace of charity (one could also translate love).
Philippians 1:9 (KJV) And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; 
And although KJV says in 1 Corinthians 13:2 charity in the greek original text it says agapēn or ἀγάπην witch stands for the love God has for his people.
Therefore both quotes do not fit this article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.50.65.20 (talk) 22:52, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

message: I'd like to see the article distinguish between implicit generosity and explicit generosity.  Explicit generosity through open giving is generally what we think of when we think of generosity, but there's another kind.  Suppose there's a large pool of generally desirable items (like pieces of cake at a workplace) and a group of people are allowed to take as much or as little as they'd like until the items run out.  Those that take little so that others are allowed to take more would be implicitly generous.  There probably would be lots of application for studying implicit generosity with regard to the design of government, and whether or not to make it more capitalistic, communistic, etc.

message: Looking up the word “liberality” on iOS devices shows the wiki summary of generosity along with a picture of the supreme leader of iran. I don’t know how much they paid Wikipedia to make this happen but that is a complete DISGRACE. The only thing the supreme leader has been generous in has been spreading death and destruction among the Iranian people.
