Sophism or sophistry?

"Sophism" seems to be ill defined. Soophistries ans sophisms are species of clever wordplay. I don't think sophistry counts as philosophy. Sophistry certainly isn't philosophy. They deserve the proper attention but this is not the kind of attention they deserve. 109.245.32.68 (talk) 18:35, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The section called Sophism should be removed. Sophistry is obviously not philosphy. And neither are the sophists actual philosophers. They were ancient charlatans.

The article is badly written. It's editors dont know the difference between sophistry and philosophy or pretend that they do not care either way. They seem to make the mistake of confusing clever and cunning men for the wise and truly admirable ones. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.245.32.68 (talk) 18:47, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Update notice

I don't believe this article needs to be updated, as its reliance on 19th century sources is legitimate, as its subject is ancient Greek philosophy. Given that all the information on this would already have come out, the only reason I could think it would need to be updated is if there were a corrected mistranslation of ancient Greek writing or something new discovered, which are unlikely, so I do NOT think this has to be or should be updated. 135.134.137.88 (talk) 03:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
