Journal title
[edit]It seems that the journal title doesn't include the word The. Should this article be renamed "Journal of Controversial Ideas"? Throughthemind (talk) 11:22, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
- Good point. The page "Journal of Controversial Ideas" currently redirects here, so I'll just swap the contents of this article with that one. (COI note: I am personally acquainted with the founders of the journal.) Adrianrorheim (talk) 07:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
- Looks like this change was never made? @Adrianrorheim: @Throughthemind: any objections to changing now? - Scarpy (talk) 03:56, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
Pov advert
[edit]the current article is a pov advert that fails to include prominent criticisms.
Namely the criticism that the journal was mainly established to promote eugenic pseudo-science and extermination policies towards crip/disabl(ed) persons as well as providing a platform for bigots to normalise their woo woo ideas relating to race, gender, and sex.
Actual proof of editorial review has also been scant.
The current article fails to mention any of this, instead opting to take quotes from organisations with explicit connections to the journal.
Hardly surprising that a hokey journal has a one-sided hokey write-up on Wikipedia. Don't we need "both sides" here to? Or at least to cover the more prominent side? I.e. that this is an edgelord journal for bigots? So both sides or the more prominent side? Which is it? TalonX 77.191.173.70 (talk) 11:26, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
- Do you have any reliable sources that support your claims? I've found a review published in The Conversation and added it to the Reception section in Special:Diff/1184031569/1191844952 to cover criticism of the pseudonyms. — Newslinger talk 04:52, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
