[edit]Brachney again, Omni. I'll try incorporating Belief Perseverance in Confirmation Bias--thanks. If it works, I'll let you know. I edited Confirmation Bias a long time ago, and this was well-received. So I'll approach that writer with your suggestion. If that fails, I'll request help in how to impart an encyclopedic format. Thanks again. Brachney Brachney (talk) 23:19, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Quotations section
[edit]I don't believe that the article should have a quotations section; this is not encyclopedia, and in keeping with the policies at WP:QUOTEFARM, which says "Do not insert any number of quotations in a stand-alone quote section.", I have removed the section - please could you explain why you feel this article should be exempt from policy?

Potential edits
[edit]How could the article be revised to eliminate excessive quotations? Additionally, the reference to the study mentioned in The Atlantic may be inappropriate as this is a potentially-biased news and journalism source, as well as misplaced as an example in the article's Lead.

I think that this article is a good start for explaining belief perseverance but I think that it's missing information on how it's relevant to society and us as humans and what some of the implications of it are. I also believe that there are more recent/current information and studies and experiments and things that have been done that could be included.Makaylahatt11 (talk) 22:03, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
Reference to Backfire_effect needs to be edited to reflect that said effect is now controversial due to lack of replication in a major a competing study. lunaverse (talk) 18:57, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
