All discussion content moved to Talk:Conspiracy theory following article merger. __meco 11:47, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Change[edit]

I would like redirect and move a revised version of the content from the page "Conspiracy_theory" here. This is the revision http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Conspiracism&oldid=363478212 The purpose of this is to foster dialog regarding Conspiracism as a worldview. Please take a look to see that all points of interest are included and that it is a superior edit. Zzzmidnight (talk) 02:52, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'm not alone when I say that I would be opposed to such a redirect since the term "conspiracy theory" itself deserves its own article. Several books have been written about conspiracy theories from a critical point of view that never use the term "conspiracism". --Loremaster (talk) 03:00, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lets discus this on the conspiracy theory article discussion page, now point in redundancy.Zzzmidnight (talk) 03:57, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. --Loremaster (talk) 17:17, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Article[edit]

I am proposing the creation of an article here. The article will address conspiracism as a world view that centrally places conspiracy theories in the unfolding of history. Roughly, it will address conspiracism's emergence as a cultural phenomenon, types of conspiracism, its study, its psychological origins, its place in media, its impact on history, its criticism, terminology needed to understand it, and its incorporation into fiction.

Go ahead. P.S. Please create new sections for a discussion under old sections (and put new comments under old comments). --Loremaster (talk) 00:35, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
