There used to be a set of pages called "List of basic x topics" (where "x" was the subject name). They tended to grow beyond the scope of "basic", and so the set was renamed to outlines about three years ago.
The set can be found at Portal:Contents/Outlines, and has grown to around 500 subjects, listing tens of thousands of topics in a hierarchical format, making it a useful navigation system of both human knowledge and the encyclopedia.
The Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics was transformed into the Outline WikiProject in October of 2008. Basic topics list are no longer supported, while outlines are under continuous development.
Therefore, I'm moving this straggler to the set of outlines where it will get more attention, and be developed into a more refined overview of the subject. The Transhumanist 19:29, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm in the process of reworking the article. Any and all help is welcome and appreciated. The Transhumanist 19:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Just discovered this. Just a way of avoiding what you don't like in Libertarianism. I'm encouraging speedy AfD for whole article, which would have been before if anyone had noticed it. Or we can just redirect it, which is easier, and I'll do hearing no dissent. CarolMooreDC ( talk) 16:46, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
I made some. Put POV in Ideals section since don't feel like figuring out how to deal with the differences right now. Was easier to figure out in the new "debates" subsection. CarolMooreDC ( talk) 15:36, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
She explicitly stated that she definitely wasn't a libertarian. She maintained that she was an Objectivist(implying that it's a political ideology all it's own.) However, they're both pretty similar. Should I remove it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.26.11.17 ( talk) 19:38, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
What are you trying to do. Please explain so I don't have to study everyone to see if it's vandalism, which is what that kind of edit summary sounds like. Thanks. CarolMooreDC 22:12, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
" Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation. The Transhumanist 00:07, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
Ambiguous whether the parenthesis refers to "forcing" or "behave". How about something like "the practice of overriding another party's will by…"? — Tamfang ( talk) 23:38, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
