message: It seems to me this article is a collection of concepts instead of providing an encyclopaedic view of transhumanism. It is in grave need of rewriting. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 15:51, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sections 

message: There were two broken refs on the page, producing the big red error text in the reflist. I commented them both out. Presumably the main references here were deleted leaving only these orphaned refs.

I guess the task here is comb through the history, find what the real references were, and then update these to include the full citation? Gosh that sound annoying, this seems like a real problem with named refs -- when removing any named ref you have to search for ophans, if not you leave a mess for someone else.

replies: text: These were never working references which became orphaned. Instead the wikitext was copied from the lead for Artificial intelligence and the references become broken at that time. So the task is just to fix up the references to make them like the lead. Although this kind of raises the question does a lead copied into an outline need the exact same citations, or are the requirements more lenient because one can always go to the main article and see the full details?

thread_title:  Broken refs 

message: "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 00:12, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
