This page is in need of some linguistic cleanup. I've removed the formal 'we' but while giving a good brief guide to the basics of identification the sentence structure is very choppy. -- Moloch09 ( talk) 15:44, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi all. I have reverted some recent copy editing from Duxwing due to multiple concerns. These include:
If anyone thinks I am out of line then please let me know (including Duxwing himself/herself). Cheers Andrew ( talk) 06:26, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
Two Wikipedians recently disagreed regarding the first editor's ( Chas. Caltrop) changes to the lede ( diff), followed by the second editor's ( Beyond My Ken) revert, and subsequent back-and-forth reverts, such that the current version of the article (11:40 UTC, 7 January 2019) is the "original" version before the first editor's changes.
I favor the original version of the lede, i.e., I agree with the second editor, because at present the article focuses on the classic psychoanalytic (Freudian) concept of identification. Therefore, to include a term from phenomenology in the lede, without subsequent discussion of, for example, Jacques Lacan and R.D. Laing, in the article, serves to confuse rather than clarify.
A possible compromise solution to the current disagreement would be to expand the article to include a section (or sections) discussing identification from the phenomenological tradition (and other perspectives, if one has the time and energy to do so). The article touches on ego psychology (Anna Freud), and mentions contemporary psychoanalytic views, so adding additional perspectives would constitute a reasonable expansion of the topic. - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) 20:53, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
