This article has been in poor shape for a long time (see Talk:Collectivism/Archive 3#Dab? for example). I finally sat down to read through that student's expansion and much of it has little to do with a common conception of "collectivism"—the article instead lists different ways the term "collectivism" is invoked in a slew of academic articles. Little of it coheres to an encyclopedic topic. My take is that it still makes the most sense to cover collectivism and individualism within the social organization article and to make "collectivism" into a disambiguation page for the variety of meanings ascribed to the term. czar 15:37, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. I don't see a lot of use or reason for this article as is. Even I think re-writing it under it's current premise wouldn't be so useful.SP00KYtalk 16:53, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The very definition immediately presupposes with its wordings that individualism is only right and good and collectivism is only wrong and bad - individuals 'realise' the truth, while collectivists don't get it, can't do what individualists can, etc. This seems like crude ideology. A single citation is not a justification for this. It should be possible to define these things without obvious value judgements.--79.100.144.23 (talk) 16:25, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And on top of being imprecise the lead is not even concise. It would be nice if you or somebody else who feels they have the ability to write something better than this to do so. SP00KYtalk 16:45, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Done All should feel free to expand further with other definitions and at collectivism and individualism. czar 03:47, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
