Encyclopedic tone

[edit]

This article is a genuine field of study, with roots going back to at least 1980. (Chronemics and the Verbal-Nonverbal Interface) The word isn't in spellcheckers, Harper's Online Etymology Dictionary, or indeed other online dictionaries. But it isn't a coy independent invention for some student project.

...No one would know that from the tone of much of the article, or the previous chatter on the Talk page (see Archive). This should be the first priority for anyone tackling this. Yamara 21:50, 7 October 2015 (UTC)https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Chronemics&action=edit#[reply]

I've done a little cleanup. The article actually has plenty of inline citations (mostly Harvard style), so I changed the warning template to "Tone". It's still badly suffering from lack of style. Yamara 02:12, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Edited out/around some of the worst style examples, but plenty remains for the intrepid. Yamara 02:56, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Badly written and insensitive

[edit]

Much of this article is uncited and comes off as personal anecdotes, or worse stereotypes of human cultures. Not to mention the tone and style of the article is out of line with the majority of Wikipedia. Did this just slip through the cracks for the past 7+ years?

This article could benefit from monochronicity. At the moment it seems to wander around trying to say a lot of different things at the same time. 184.67.135.194 (talk) 20:52, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
