Talk:Slow movement/Archive 1

(first comment)

I was very surprised that this wasn't yet developed in wiki. I hope that we can build a great resource here. --Jseidel 11:48, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

I've closed this here, as the discussion has been copied to, is continued on, the correct talk page. Moonraker12 (talk) 02:17, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

I just see that there are many articles which contain the word slow in addition to something which already exists:

• Slow movement is the main one (destination),
• Slow architecture is another one,
• Slow cinema is another one,
• Slow design is another one,
• Slow education is another one,
• Slow gardening is another one,
• Slow Movement, is another one,
• Slow parenting is another one,
• Slow photography is another one,
• Slow programming is another one,
• Slow reading is another one,
• Slow Science is another one,

Claimed unrelated (the merge tag will be removed after the poll):

• Slow television

Claimed to be valid as stand alone articles (the merge tag will be removed after the poll):

• Cittaslow
• Slow food

I'll suggest to make a move forward and integrate all those small articles into Slow Movement because the articles have no real substance and it looks like they where created to attract readers to the Slow Food movement. Please vote about this proposal below. I have nothing against the Slow Movement. --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 05:57, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

I added the {{merging|Slow movement|date=August 2015}} to the above articles to ask for comments on this suggested change.

Agree - no additional value to keep these articles separated, some are tagged for notability, refrences. Make your own objective research. --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 05:57, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Oppose for Slow television. That article is already lengthy enough to stand on its own and has 29 references. It documents a media phenomenon appearing for several years, unrelated to "Slow food". Bistropha (talk) 19:37, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi Bistropha, thanks for your valuable feedback, could you please change your vote, I removed your article to the unrelated list (these pages will not be included for the merge)! --huggi - never stop exploring (talk) 00:02, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, Huggi. I have no objection to the proposed merger (leaving out "Slow television"), but suggest a careful review of the list in case some of the other topics may deserve distinct articles (perhaps Cittaslow). Bistropha (talk) 04:28, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Oppose for slow cinema, probably the rest. Bulk discussions like this are not appropriate, you need to consider each on its own merits. Slow cinema has been discussed in detail in reliable sources, some of which are cited in the article. This is a notable standalone topic. If you want to have summaries of the individual articles in a main article with main links then that'd be fine, but a merge will not better serve readers or navigation.

Archived

This page which was created in 2005 as a talk page for the title “Slow movement” and for some reason pre-dates both the article (currently at “Slow Movement”) and the redirect (here).
Earlier this year it also acquired a merge discussion regarding the article page (over there), and was closed off as a discussion fork.
To avoid further confusion I am archiving this entire page. Moonraker12 (talk) 15:08, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
