Untitled[edit]

Hi - I'm planning on extending the content of this article by adding information about, for instance, how the increasing omnipresence of and accessibility to the digital world increases the need for a digital detox.--Blomstervase (talk) 01:30, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi-I am also planning to add to this stub article. I am looking at a broader introduction to the topic, How to perfect a digital detox and possible effects of information overload.Kitty161 (talk) 16:06, 28 October 2014 (UTC)Kitty161[reply]

I have now added a paragraph to the article (more to come) to explain more about why digital detox as a the trend has emerged. --Blomstervase (talk) 21:46, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well done Blomstervase. I also added a paragraph and a sub-heading titled "Why digital detox". Feel free to comment. Hoping to do more too.Kitty161 (talk)Kitty161 — Preceding undated comment added 06:35, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job! Good idea to highlight the effects of digital detoxing. I have now extended the article considearably with several paragraphs. Let me know what you think, and feel free to edit.--Blomstervase (talk) 15:53, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I edited the article and renamed the sub-heading "other benefits of digital detox". I added your last paragraph to the second bullet point of other benefits since it contains the same idea of increased productivity. I hope you are comfortable with that?Kitty161 (talk)Kitty161 — Preceding undated comment added 04:52, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It looks good now. I see you have rewritten the paragraph I added before about digital detox businesses. Your paragraph is good, but perhaps mentioning names of companies would be considered advertisement? --Blomstervase (talk) 00:37, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think its an advertisement. Some of the companies have pages on Wikipedia so it is not forbidden to talk about their services. I didn't recommend them, just a mention to show the involvement of corporate organizations with digital detoxing. That's my thought!Kitty161 (talk)Kitty161 — Preceding undated comment added 17:16, 5 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Questionable legitimacy[edit]

This page reads more like an ad or someone's opinion then an encyclopedia entry. I question this pages legitimacy. It needs more sources and to include alternative views to give a more balanced view of digital detox. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.39.142.127 (talk) 02:01, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Better Sources BADLY Needed[edit]

This whole article is basically one big.^{[better source needed]} Presumably there are some actual scientific studies we could find to incorporate. PvOberstein (talk) 18:38, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge discussion[edit]

Agree with the above comments, perhaps this can be merged with social media detoxification in the first instance, to help cleanup and coordinate related topics under the Digital media use and mental health banner? --11:01, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge. Overlapping topics.-Nizil (talk) 05:19, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dopamine fasting[edit]

Is the concept of Dopamine fasting distinct from digital detox? Should they be merged? Fences&Windows 11:28, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
