*'''Oppose''' While criticism is indeed a mass noun like "fish", its form with an "s" does have a meaning separate and distinct from the form without one. Compare "fishes". Where there are schools (or types) of criticism, the form with the "s" is appropriate. In these cases it is better to grasp at the various types of criticism that these doctrines, people, policies, etc. are heir to. As such we should encourage such articles to use the "s" in their title and to avoid having content that just deals with a single type of criticism. --] (]) 03:51, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

*'''Oppose'''. The content of most of these articles is multiple categories or types of criticism, i.e., criticism'''s'''. (''N.B.'' ]: ''"Some mass nouns can be used in English in the plural to mean 'more than one instance (or example) of a certain sort of entity'".'') They are mostly laundry lists of grievances of various opponents of the topic in question. Criticism (without an ''s'') implies a singularity that doesn't exist. While "criticism'''s'''" could be subsumed under "criticism", using the plural makes the nature of the articles clearer. This is indirectly covered by ].

socialisation

'socialisation' and 'nationalisation' is mentioned once, without any link or definition. The reference is incorrect (dead link) and the source is a book, so I would expect numbers of pages.Xx236 (talk) 10:12, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
