For those for whom this won't be obvious, the content of this page appears to be very inspired by George Lakoff. That's not a bad thing (I like Lakoff), but it should eventually be clarified in the article, and competing views should also be included. --Ryguasu 02:57 Nov 25, 2002 (UTC)
- I added a link to Lakoff, expanded slightly, wikified a little, and removed the Wiktionary tag. Spalding 13:11, Apr 3, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Perceptual categorization?
We should formulate an amendment to this entry to consist of information detailing the science of perceptual categorization. That is, the way people determine an individual or group's thematic status (e.g., reformer, deathbringer, atheist, Christian, scientist). Of course, this topic may be covered elsewhere. If so, then we should amend the article to disambiguate. Adraeus 14:35, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC) --68.196.66.29 16:33, 29 May 2006
[edit] Jerzy's statement
The statement "Ideally, a category illuminates a relationship between the subjects and objects of knowledge." is a paraphrase of a comment left by User:Jerzy when the Category system was just getting started in the summer of 2004. This statement lived on the category:fundamental page until recently. --Ancheta Wis 01:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
