About marked facts — citation needed[edit]

I’ve wrote this article using my university summary. This summary about organizational conflict was written with the help of one good book. But, unfortunately, I don’t remember its title and authors. In the near future I will try to find it and give references to marked facts. May be somebody will help me with it? Thank you in advance :) Prokopenya Viktor (talk) 00:44, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose that Workplace conflict be merged into Organizational conflict. A scan of both articles indicates to me #that they are covering the same thing. Andrew (talk) 10:01, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Draft in Progress, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Scheung2/sandbox. Scheung2 (talk) 00:15, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Scheung2. Glad to hear you are looking to give this article some attention. I look forward to seeing your work. I guess I would have three comments at this stage.
  1. Have you considered the merge proposal between this article and workplace conflict? I ask because if you think that the merge is a good idea then it would make sense to perform the merge before further changes are made. This would save some potentially double handling.
  2. Based on the structure you propose above, and your current sandbox draft, it does look like you are planning to expand the article in quite a few areas. This should be applauded, but don't forget that there is a key difference between wikipedia and other introductory sources (e.g. text books and encyclopedias). Specifically, wikipedia is unique in that it is a richly connected network of articles, where each article is able to immediately leverage the content of other articles in order to support its own. This means that there is a reduced need to introduce the basics of relevant concepts, and instead there can be some reliance on wiki-links to provide the reader with an opportunity for further elaboration as required.
  3. If you intend to make large scale changes, consider making them in small increments. The advantage of this is that if there is some concern about one aspect of the revision then not everything need be reverted and then discussed. In other words, it helps reduce the need to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Does that all make sense? Let me know if you have any questions or comments. Otherwise, happy editing. Cheers Andrew (talk) 12:21, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
