Hello, fellow editors. I am faculty in the MA in Critical Craft Studies program at Warren Wilson College, and I will be guiding my students in some targeting editing of this page on Jan. 12, 2023. We intend to add citations and develop the scope of the article from a European-centered craft history to a more global view. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss.

Ah how pleasant it is to stumble across a place that seems blissfully unaware of the art/craft debate that has raged in the UK for the past 100 years. In fact it is such a treat that I'm not going to spoil the quaint anachronism that IS this article.
no not a word about the word stemming from the German word Kraft (power) and its subsequent vilification in the english language as the superstitious practice of the 'illiterate peasant'. or the political use made of the word by Morris and others to seperate a left wing agenda from the right wing use of Art, nor the modernist relegation of all things 'craft' to the domain of the feared lower classes, I shaln't quote from 'The Intellectuals and the Masses' by Carey about how conan doyle and h.g.wells epitomise that fear (along with the popular press and the bicycle) and how 'news from nowhere' was used as a rallying cry to rehabilitate a popular possesion of culture.
and what a relief not to have to outline british arts funding relating to the two strands, how they are defined and what it says about culture in britain today. After all wikipedia is american isn't it. lol DavidP 23:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

This entry should be linked to the German entry "Handwerk". The German word "Handwerk" both relates to "trade" and "craft" in English. Could anybody do this, please? I am new to Wikipedia (as a contributor) and don't know how to do this. Thanks!
By the way: The German entry on "Handwerk" links to "trade"; I'd rather link it to "craft", since trade both relates to craft and to the trading of goods, whereas "Handwerk" in its original, strict sense relates to craft, but not to the trading of goods. So this should be changed too.
