Talk:Organizational storytelling

message: I agree - this is very confusing. A shame.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.219.11.96 (talk) 13:12, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

message: The opening definition is confusing [It recognises the special place of narration in human communication, making narration "the foundation of discursive thought and the possibility of acting in common."].  I think we could do better. What about, "It recognises the special place of narration in human communication, making stories the foundation of meaning and action." We will need a citation for this sentiment. Story consultants should resist suggesting their own books. --User:Finrod.Ancalime (talk) 03:02, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Complex definition

message: Looking through the article it reads more like a marketing brochure than a Wikipedia entry.  Many statements are made without qualification or supporting authority and the links to academic theory and consultancy practice are patchy. I plan to attempt some restructuring next week when I get time, however it seems sensible to announce that intent here and invite comment.  --Snowded (talk) 06:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Totally agree. There's very little citation, and a huge chunk of references. I've been idly considering this article for a merge into a larger one (haven't found a good candidate) but a cleanup won't hurt and if you can get it to stand on its own legs, so much the better. Have fun! -- mordel (talk) 14:43, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I am partly thinking that it needs to be renamed to reflect the use of narrative in organisations (which includes story telling but is not limited to it) with some radical pruning of the material to reflect a more neutral position.   I an not going to get a chance until the end of the week and will post an outline here first  --Snowded (talk) 17:28, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: This article has many problems. For starters, the references seem mostly wrong to me. Is it just me having a bad day?  For example, could somebody please explain to me the following reference, how to I find it or what it means:
  Anonymous, Anon. “Organisational Storytelling - Social Vocabulary.” social vocabulary. Organisational storytelling. N.p., 6 Dec. 2015. Web. 6 Dec. 2015.
What is N.p.?  What is Web? 
There is a number of those.  I am really not trying to be picky about a referencing format, but I would firmly believe that a reference needs to be possible to find or at least understood what it means so that the reader can fairly evaluate the credibility of the source. Unless somebody clarifies those in the article, I think they just need to be erased. Once the junk is out, and I mean all of it, then the improvement to the article might start happening. Right now, it is not good at all. Stan J. Klimas (talk) 18:31, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
