• To be manually checked, deleted or moved to article's talk page:

• Juvenile delinquency - This page needs more substantial information by. It has been completely overlooked. Robin klein 12:12, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Slacker - The tone of the article is a bit too light-hearted and unwikipedian. It looks, frankly, like it was edited mostly by slackers. Alfvaen 16:58, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)

• Social theory - I moved this from main sociology page (which could use some attention as well). This seems more like a rant then an encyclopedia article to me, but I am not familiar enough with the topic to do major editing. No references, no external links (there were none related when I moved it) and very few significant internal links - although I linked some names now. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 17:16, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

• Nonverbal communication - this article really should not be a stub. --[[User:Eequor|ᓛᖁᑐ]] 18:03, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

• Commune - Commune is a disambig with a link to Intentional Community. Intentional Community lists various types of communities, including commune, which is a link back to the disambig page. So we have no specific information on what a commune (in this sense) is. Please, would anyone care to elaborate? --Heron 13:00, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)

• Fashion - Should there be a general category tree for all things related to fashion? There is a fair number of articles now and nowhere to categorize them in general. (Ex: Fashion designers, &c.) Not sure where to put the category. Under "Human image" perhaps?

• Humanism - this important subject needs more whole-hearted treatment; Renaissance humanism treats it as a historical phenomenon. Wetman 18:42, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)

• Commercialism - inaccurate and simplistic, it starts with a dicdef [1] and moves on to speculate about cave men bartering with each other. I put it in sociology but I'm not sure if this is the right category. Rhobite 15:37, Jul 28, 2004 (UTC)

• Trust metric - minimal but informative article. --[[User:Eequor|ᓛᖁᑐ]] 13:37, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)

• Rural sociology, Types of rural communities, Exurb, Role homogeneity, Agribusiness, List of literature on rural issues, and Demographic history of the United States seem to be a collection of interlinked articles which portary a particular anti-corporate perspective on the economics of rural America. These articles need substantial work by someone familiar with (or willing to learn more about) rural economics and culture to establish NPOV and factual accuracy. I think managed to mostly save Rural exodus, but if you are familiar with the subject, you can probably improve it. If you do statistical research for Demographic history of the United States, you may find that the "rural exodus" is not happening everywhere that Rural exodus might imply. (I haven't checked, but the original author did not seem to take care to make the article neutral, so now I'm suspicious.) --Beland 01:10, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)

• Counterculture - A number of the statements and arguments here seem highly contestable and POV. AndyL 01:12, 15 Jul 2004 (UTC)

• Closure (sociology) -- badly needs a rewrite/rename. --Taak 23:26, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)

• Coming of age, surprisingly, is mainly about Australia and Japan. It would probably be best to start the article from scratch and then incorporate the material that is already there. <KF> 13:48, 20 May 2004 (UTC)

• Gang is rather minimal. I've put some suggestions on its talk page, but I someone much more expert than I am should work on this one. --Jmabel 06:33, 17 Apr 2004 (UTC)

• Death rock fashion - Not putting down rookies as I myself was one once, but the info in this page is typical of a rookie. Antonio Poser Martin

• Working class needs alot of work/additions/rewrite, and probably merged w similar articles (Blue collar, proletariat, etc...) Sam [Spade] 17:41, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

• Yolteotl very small, and hard to find info online about. Karmafist 04:57, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

• Street harassment Needs a lot of help, very POV, some OR, decent concept and some sources so its not one of those "dear me, where do I even start?" ones. KillerChihuahua 11:14, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
