Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was a good articles nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | ||||||||||

Is music really a "main interest" when it is mentioned only twice in the page? 77.201.32.164 ( talk) 18:10, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
Modern biographies in English are Aiton (1985) and Antognazza (2008). An 1845 English biography by John M. Mackie is available on Google Books. A lively short account of Leibniz’s life, one also taking a critical approach to his philosophy, is Mates (1986: 14–35), who cites the German biographies extensively. Also see MacDonald Ross (1984: chpt. 1), the chapter by Ariew in Jolley (1995), and Jolley (2005: chpt. 1). For a biographical glossary of Leibniz's intellectual contemporaries, see Leibniz, Philosophical Essays. Translated and edited by Roger Ariew and Dan Garber. Indianapolis: Hackett, 1989, pp. 350-357.
For a first introduction to Leibniz's thought, see the Introduction of any anthology of his writings in English translation, e.g., Wiener (1951), Loemker (1969a), Woolhouse and Francks (1998). Then turn to the monographs MacDonald Ross (1984), and Jolley (2005). For an introduction to Leibniz's metaphysics, see the chapters by Mercer, Rutherford, and Sleigh in Jolley (1995); see Mercer (2001) for an advanced study. For an introduction to those aspects of Leibniz's thought of most value to the philosophy of logic and of language, see Jolley (1995, chpts. 7, 8); Mates (1986) is more advanced. MacRae (Jolley 1995: chpt. 6) discusses Leibniz's theory of knowledge. For glossaries of the philosophical terminology recurring in Leibniz's writings and the secondary literature, see Woolhouse and Francks (1998: 285–93) and Jolley (2005: 223–29).

I think that single engraving where the family name is misspelled is not a justification or proof that it should be spelled like that in French. (Obviously, the given names are the common French variants of these, but that's unrelated to the family name. BTW, the French WP page fr:Gottfried_Wilhelm_Leibniz says "parfois francisé en Godefroid-Guillaume Leibniz"...) — MFH: Talk 15:42, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
I would like to write some extra information but to enquire opinions from the fixtures of Wikipedia before the admixture.
I have a Finnish chapter called Antiikin Kulttuuri Historia (the Culture History of Antiquity, 1980) where some intriguing claims concerning Leibniz: the text can be translated something like this:
"Instead Leibniz whose recreations reached abroad (inter alia for the linguistics), was orienteted himself onto Antiquity, likewise of Greek.
The exatc sciences were already waived of for the uncritical faith regarding the mathematicians and natural scientists. Therefore Descartes plus Newton hardly utilized the sources of the Antiquity for their opusses.
Leibniz is apparently the last significant (quantum) scientist, who regarded lean himself on directly to the tradition of the Antiquity."
After the Beginning of Infinity by David Deutchs, Wikipedia should introduce these knowledge, after the commentary, critique plus improvements... Kartasto ( talk) 04:14, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
