Cleanup
[edit]- Need to get rid of latin abbreviation c.f. because it is not common enough usage (latin confer meaning 'compare').
- The list of example by various people needs to be neatened in addition to removing the c.f.
- There are too many red links on this page in my opinion (although that may be an aesthetic opinion).
- etc?
Additions
[edit]- Do we have pictures of the items listed as examples? Would the pictures help show what blobjects have in common?
Metaphysical term
[edit]I've never encountered this term except in recent philosophical writing, where it refers to the universe as a whole. (I believe it was coined by Ted Sider.) Obviously a very different sense of the word; maybe there should be a disambiguation? I don't really have the time or the know-how to add one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WadeMcR (talk • contribs) 20:34, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
- No, I think it was in "Austere realism: contextual semantics meets minimal ontology" by Terry Horgan, Matjaž Potrč. Be that as it may, I too was surprised (appalled, horrified) to find this given as the primary meaning of the term. At least a disambiguation page is needed, once there's an article (or we can locate a section of a relevant article) discussing the (to my mind correct, but that's my POV) meaning of the term.
