Neutral/dubious language

[edit]

I removed the reference to "the highfalutin aristocrats", but I still think that some of the language in the intro wanders into opinion territory: "The first meetings started with only a dozen or so people. Soon university students showed up, followed by eccentric citizens off the street, off-duty cab drivers, and idle wealthy women." Who says they were eccentric? Is there a standard? How do we know the women were idle? We're talking about the latter 20th Century - a wealthy woman with the time to take part in a philosophical conversation isn't necessarily idle. --Jay (Histrion) (talkcontribs) 21:23, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

POV-lead removed, due to further improvements. --MisterGugaruz (talk) 16:57, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kaffeehaus Philosophen Might Predate Café Philosophique

[edit]

Right now I'm obsessed with German Romantic and Enlightenment Philosophy, so I searched for "Kaffeehaus Philosophen," but to my consternation, I found this article in the top of the search. It originated in 1930's Vienna; therefore, it predates "Café pilosophique" from the latter 1900's. With that in mind, I'm no expert and don't have the confidence to edit something that major. Any thoughts? Danke schön! LeonhardEuler27 (talk) 01:09, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To even more consternation, I've now found it originated in 17th-18th century England! All on Wikipedia of course... LeonhardEuler27 (talk) 01:18, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
