Hello, I am going to be doing some research on Cliques and adding to the current page here on Wikipedia for a college sociology course. I have created a rough draft outline of what I would like the organization of the page to be like. I thought it was crazy how little is written about cliques considering how influential they are in all of our lives, especially as it pertains to our social interactions. I would like to add more information on cliques and detail exactly how and why cliques are a relevant factor within our lives. Please let me know if there is an suggestions on sources, organization, content, etc. Thank you!

Hello, I'm very eager to dive into this topic. I'm looking forward to contributing to this page for my sociology course. In saying so, I have created an outline of possible topics i wanted to explore and research. Cliques are very prevalent in society and more information should definitely be added.

Clique (Possible Introduction)
A clique is a social group of people who communicate or connect with each other more than they do with others in the same environment, Being apart of a clique is usually seen as a norm in society regardless of status. With regards to this, many of these cliques are most likely to be prevalent during teenage years but regardless of age people may still encounter these groups. These cliques vary, these cliques can range from athletes, nerds, cheerleaders, etc. Many affecting factors cause these cliques to form such as; ethnicity, similar interest, physical appearance, etc. For the most part, members of a clique usually Isolate themselves and may view their clique as superior. That is to say being apart of a clique is not a permanent position. Cliques come along with these unwritten rules or what the members consider acceptable.
Social Isolation ~ Are cliques linked to Social Isolation? ~ How do cliques and the concept of social isolation go hand and hand? Clique Members ~ Different viewpoints of how members of cliques come together? How firm these cliques are?
Homophily ~ How people link up with other people like them.
Network Formation ~ How Cliques are distinct in the world of network formation.

I wouldn't think it right to call the KKK a clique. the KKK is a formally organised group, not an informal unorganised friendship group as cliques are. it would be like calling football club a clique. if one had a group of white supremacists within a school or at a workplace or something like that, then sure, one could reasonably call that a clique. but the KKK is a formally organised group, and also too large, to be a clique.

There used to be a type of network on the World Wide Web called a "clique", a lot like a webring, but with exclusive membership determined by the site owner. Mainly teenage girls. They were popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s, slightly before blogging became big. Equinox ◑ 20:30, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
