Where is Fay Crozby?[edit]

As far as I know there was a woman called Fay Crozby who came with FIVE conditions for feelings of relative deprivation. A historical overview should take this into account?

Citation really needed?[edit]

About this sentence: "It has sometimes been related to the biological concept of relative fitness, where an organism that successfully outproduces its competitors leaves more copies in the gene pool.[citation needed]" Why does this need a citation? Doesn't it already link to the biological fitness page? I'm relatively new to editing Wikipedia, so I'm curious if there's some rule I'm missing. Myoglobin (talk) 01:20, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Is poverty decreasing?[edit]

We could use some more eyes on this: Talk:List_of_common_misconceptions#poverty. Also, there is the question of whether the proposed misconception should be added to an article on poverty. --David Tornheim (talk) 02:04, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
