Uncited OR[edit]

Although daydreams are usually frowned on when you are supposed to be doing something "more productive", they are still a vital part of some people's thinking process. some people need to daydream to come to conclusions and opinions that make sense to them.

Is there eople need to daydream..." Article text should not be written with informal "you". --Mgreenbe 09:02, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs a lot of cleaning up. Very badly written and sourced in parts — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.129.163.253 (talk) 04:14, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Prefer page title "daydreaming"[edit]

The human activity strikes me as a far more definite subject matter than the mysterious mental content that transpires, and the present page title seems inconsistent with my instincts regarding similar topics (edit: e.g. mind-wandering). — MaxEnt 03:57, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

When looking at this page I found many areas that I think could benefit from strong edits. While I may not be a professional on daydreaming, as a technical editor I find that there can be a lot of beneficial improvements to this article. It has a strong base at this point, but there is always room for improvement! Over the course of the next few weeks, I plan on making the following bold edits:

- Restructuring the word choices used in this article in order to make sure that it follows Wikipedia's tone guide that allows the article to be written as a encyclopedic page rather than an overly scientific document which it currently is leaning towards

- Formatting subheadings to break up the page more under the major headings to increase readability throughout.

These are just the starting edits that I have noticed, but as I dive into this article I will update this talk page and hopefully help improve the overall quality of this page! Editingenchilada (talk) 20:23, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
