unverified material, based primarily on one popular book. The whole "US Generations" project is just atrocious! This is but one example Dylanfly 16:07, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep - Based on plenty of hits at google scholar and google news. Corpx 16:17, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but rewrite with disambiguation in mind. The term and related concepts have been around far longer than the article suggests; Strauss and Howe did not create it nor do they have some special claim on it, and they may be paying homage to Charles A. Reich and his use of consciousness eras in the 1970 book, The Greening of America; see also its use by hippies and feminists in terms of consciousness raising in the counterculture of the 1960s; use of the term "expressive revolution" by Talcott Parsons in 1971; Robert Wuthnow's use of "consciousness reformation" in 1976, Todd Gitlin's framing of the idea in 1987; Ron Miller's 2002 book, Free Schools, Free People; Steven M. Gillon's 2004 book, Boomer Nation; and many other uses of the term. There also seem to be various meanings: Strauss and Howe use it to define a generation; Gillon describes it as a social movement; and Roger Wolcott Sperry uses it to describe the cognitive revolution in psychology. —Viriditas | Talk 06:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but definitely needs more sources. Article makes it sound as if this term was only recently invented. Mandsford 14:26, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
