Talk:School of Names

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think the title "Logicians" is misleading when we talk about Chinese philosophers. The name "School of Names" is much more appropriate. Although Chinese thinkers like Gongsun Long and Hui Shi do seem to have similar ideas to Western logicians, calling them logicians could cause misunderstanding. --Kilences 13:09, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Logicians -- redirect

[edit]

Please note the discussion at Talk:Logicians#Changes and at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Philosophy#Logicians. Formerly, Logicians redirected exclusively to this article. That has been changed. --David Tornheim (talk) 03:37, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in School of Names

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of School of Names's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 18:53, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Shen Buhai

I copied and rewrote info on Deng-Xi and Shen Buhai here. Since attribution is requested, I'm the one who put together the writing in question from the other wikipedia pages in the first place, with credit to my sources.~ FourLights (talk) 16:32, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
