Talk:Outline of communication

message: topics which will help the beginner become familiar with the field of communications. For a comprehensive list, see List of communication topics.
: This list helps the beginner become familiar with communications as much as a list of functions helps someone learn how to program for the first time. Can we at least organize/sort the topics into more logical groupings instead of alphabetical lists? - Magic5ball 23:28, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

message: The links in this page are like an ocean.  Its very difficult to find anything.  I'm going to attempt to bullet these, and possible group them further so that it is easy to read, but also not 10 pages long.Chapium 20:22, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Ocean of Links

message: What distinguishes a mode of communication from a type of communication? The section on this seems to overlap.
I think this article is overly detailed. Television and radio are listed (types of Electronic Mass communication), Telephone (another form of electronic communication), etc. I think the main areas are missed in this article.  This article really needs to be merged into Communication and Communication studies (unless this page serves another purpose that I am unaware of).  Chapium 20:43, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Guidelines for outlines 

message: Please add some relevant links to the history section.
Links can be found in the "History of" article for this subject, in the "History of" category for this subject, or in the corresponding navigation templates.  Or you could search for topics on Google - most topics turn blue when added to Wikipedia as internal links.

thread_title:  The "History of" section needs links! 

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 00:04, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
