The Sociology of Law
I have expanded and structured the entry on the Sociology of law which was previously classed as "less than a stub". It now needs to be reassessed and discussed. Please visit Sociology of law and comment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Banakar (talk • contribs) 15:27, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Wikiproject:Social movements
Would there be editors interested in developing such a Wikiproject? Please direct reples here so we can centralize the discussion. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 22:25, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- I left a positive reply here. Has there been any further developments about this idea or something similar? FloNight♥♥♥♥ 15:06, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
- No, but I will reply at Talk:Social_movement#WikiProject_Social_Movements. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:02, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
WikiProject Death
Please join discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Death regarding forming a joint task force with WikiProject Biology. --Geniac (talk) 02:49, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Sociological positivism
This article urgently needs improving!
Both of these articles seem to have issues...I seem to remember the platonic love article being well rounded a while back, but now it and romantic friendship both seem to be very homosexually focused (and the platonic love article a somewhat incoherent mess). They were both unhelpful when I was researching heterosexual forms of the same the other day. I would love to help improve the articles, but I admit my knowledge on them is somewhat lacking.

Userbox
I've created {{User WPSOC}}, for public display of our allegiance and such. Enjoy! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 22:45, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Science Fiction?
When adding the Wikiproject Sociology userbox, the Category of "Wikiproject Science Fiction members" is also automatically added to one's user page. I suspect the latter userbox was used as a template for the former, but it is not working correctly; needs repair! DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 18:11, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- Corrected. :-) DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 18:14, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
Sociological educational assignment needs reviewers
Please see Wikipedia_talk:Good_article_nominations#Request_for_reviewers_for_educational_assignments_GANs. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:47, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
The current article at Affirmative Action is fully about social equality with various phrases such as "positive action" redirecting there. I have suggested moving to and merging with Social equality and both are part of this project. It shouldn't require much change to either articles basis so I could do it but please go ahead and chime in at it on Talk:Affirmative_action#Social_equality or Talk:Social_equality#Affirmative_Action ~ R.T.G 08:57, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
RfC: UFO religion

Relevant AFD
Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Core Knowledge Perspective. Thank you for your time, Cirt (talk) 08:57, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
This article could use some new eyes with expert knowledge/mediation/constructive input; I'm posting to several WikiProjects that seem relevant and to RfC. I have already done so on WP:Cleanup (other ideas just about where to seek help are also welcome). Article was created 06:51, 20 April 2004 by an IP. There's thirteen talk page archives and five Articles for Deletion discussions; there are 122 watchers and about 400 daily page views on average. Has never reached much of a consensus regarding the subject, content or sources AFAIK. Thanks! Шизомби (talk) 03:44, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
Discrimination
Discrimination is a term relative to every situation in life and cuts across, race, language,color,socio-economic factors , politics and religions. A standard of differentaition adopted to balance lack of knowledge ,understanding and complexity of a race's,socio-economic,cultural,religious and political system.×××× —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kingsleylive (talk • contribs) 04:15, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Anarchism at GAH
Anarchism has been nominated for Good Article status. I have assessed it and placed in on hold so that some points I have raised can be dealt with. I see the article has this project's tag, so am informing people here. My comments are at Talk:Anarchism/GA1.--Peter cohen (talk) 16:08, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
Radicalization: article needs expansion, generalization
I've just expanded the stub article on radicalization, using the obvious low-hanging references relating to Islamic radicalization. However, as a result the article has an excessive emphasis on recent Islamic militancy and terrorism. It badly needs expanding to include other cases of radicalization -- for example, historical communist and fascist movements, as well as historically unimportant groups such as ecoterrorists, the Red Brigades and 19th century and early 20th century militant anarchism -- as well as taking a look at the resemblances and differences between these cases; there must be scholarly research on this. -- The Anome (talk) 17:36, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
I'm posting this note here to request help with the article at Ethnoreligious group, that has a template from this Wikiproject on the talk page. The article currently has no sources for the definition of the term, and there is talk page discussion about a possible merge with Ethnic religion. If anyone here is interested in this topic, please join the discussion or add sources to the page. Thanks. --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 00:01, 18 January 2010 (UTC) --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 00:03, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
The eyes of one or a few experts would be very welcome here. Thanks! --Crusio (talk) 17:12, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Reassess Forced Prostitution article
Hey guys. A significant amount of work has been done to the Forced Prostitution article by me among others, is it possible for it to be re-assessed? It doesn't seem that this will ever get looked at on the Sexology and sexuality pages. Thanks. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 01:08, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
type of mortality
What is the term for the situation when an improvement in one cause of death leads to an increase in other causes of death. It is ____ mortality. Thanks, Kevin Byrne 99.171.182.125 (talk) 04:46, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Perception
Dear all,
I’ve been trying to help folks who were trying to articulate the latest knowledge on Perception article, but my suggestions did not help much. On top of that, some little egos managed to erode even that little clarity we had.
I have decided, therefore, to simply rewrite the article on the basis of currently available knowledge in the following disciplines: cognitive and developmental psychology, medicine (especially genetics), anthropology, sociology, philosophy and complex (adaptive) systems theory with emphasised references to non-monotonic logics. I am contemplating few other disciplines, but these will suffice for the beginning.
I have drafted the lead into the article and the draft can be found on the related discussion page. I am calling now for comments and contributions backed by the latest science and the latest contemporary philosophical thought. My only condition is clarity and brevity wherever possible. If you find other possible references, they will be welcomed too.
Kind regards, Damir Ibrisimovic (talk) 22:03, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
Semi-periphery_countries GA review
I have put the GA review of Semi-periphery countries on hold as I feel based on a source check that there is a possibility the information as presented could be unreliable. I would like an expert on the subject to check over the article before resuming the review. See Talk:Semi-periphery countries/GA2. SilkTork *YES! 12:38, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
Child Poverty
Have tried to clean up the Child Poverty article. Most of the information came straight out of UNICEF. If anyone can add anything further that would be great. AIRcorn (talk) 23:04, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Would welcome imput on the talk page disputes, as well as the requested page move. BillMasen (talk) 11:12, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Would someone take a look at one of the project's articles Alternative lifestyle. It just seems to be a completely unsourced collection of things that Alf Garnet would disapprove of. Thanks, Daicaregos (talk) 10:08, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- Can it not be deleted? Zujine (talk) 15:37, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Unreferenced living people articles bot
User:DASHBot/Wikiprojects provides a list, updated daily, of unreferenced living people articles (BLPs) related to your project. There has been a lot of discussion recently about deleting these unreferenced articles, so it is important that these articles are referenced.
The unreferenced articles related to your project can be found at >>>Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Unreferenced BLPs<<<
If you do not want this wikiproject to participate, please add your project name to this list.
Thank you.
- Update: Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Unreferenced BLPs has been created. This list, which is updated by User:DASHBot/Wikiprojects daily, will allow your wikiproject to quickly identify unreferenced living person articles.
- There maybe no or few articles on this new Unreferenced BLPs page. To increase the overall number of articles in your project with another bot, you can sign up for User:Xenobot_Mk_V#Instructions.
- If you have any questions or concerns, visit User talk:DASHBot/Wikiprojects. Okip 23:30, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- It is interesting that this list is empty, yet Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sociology/Cleanup_listing#BLP_articles_lacking_sources is not. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:22, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
GA reassessment of African American culture
I have conducted a reassessment of the above article following its listing at Wikipedia:Good articles/Cleanup listing#Articles with 4 cleanup categories assigned. You are being notified as this project's banner is on the article talk page. I have found some concerns which you can see at Talk:African American culture/GA1. I have placed the article on hold whilst these are fixed. Thanks. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 13:14, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
Cleanup listing
Good news - Walterbot finally generated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Cleanup listing. Well, good news as in the only reward for good work... :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 00:29, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Sociology barnstar
We could use our own WikiProject award. Anybody with graphical skills good enough to make one? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:43, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Request for review of draft article
Folks, would one of the regulars here have time to review a draft article? It is at User:AgRince/Social Science Research on Greatness. The article was previously in mainspace but after I sent it to Afd, at the request of the creator I moved it to userspace for further work. The creator has done some more work on it and left a couple of requests for feedback, the most recent at WP:Requests for feedback#User:AgRince/Social Science Research on Greatness. If someone would take a look at it and respond at WP:FEED, perhaps also leaving a {{Feedbackreply}} on the user's talk page, that would be great. Thanks in advance. – ukexpat (talk) 13:30, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
- I left a comment at User_talk:AgRince#Your_request_for_feedback. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:21, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
New userboxes
I've created sociologist professional userbox, and added the sociology interest userbox I found. See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sociology. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 23:44, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Missing topics
I've updated my list of missing topics related to social matters - Skysmith (talk)¨
- Interesting. What were the criteria for selecting terms to include in it? Also, you may want to reneme it from User:Skysmith/Missing topics about Social customs to User:Skysmith/Missing topics about Social issues (I am a stickler for naming :D). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:20, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
