==Removing memetics category==

I am removing the memetics category from this article since you learn no more about the article's contents from the category and v.v. Since so many things may be memes we should try to keep the category closely defined in order to remain useful. Hope you're okay with that. The link to meme would be enough I suggest. ] 17:42, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

If you can write an article about Raymond's Homesteading the Noosphere, please go ahead and do so. I've tried reading the whole thing and found it too hard to follow. How about summarizing it in a new Misplaced Pages article to be called Homesteading the Noosphere, please? --Ed Poor

Thanks, Brion. --Ed Poor
I read it when it first came out and it seemed to make some kind of sense at the time, but I don't remember the details too clearly. I'll try to expand the stub when I get a chance to reread. --Brion VIBBER

That is right, David, the "noosphere" is related to cosmotheism, and white separatism ,alone, is NOT what cosmotheism itself, is really all about, whatsoever! (rv POV Gerardspam)


I removed the "nousphere" spelling. I've never seen it spelled that way, and Google has 100 references for it versus 137,000 for noosphere. Isidore 19:03, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I put it back because it is a redirect to this page, if you want to get nousphere removed, then get the redirect vfd'ed. According to the Misplaced Pages:manual of style, all alternative names should appear in the opening paragraph bolded. I don't care if the word stays or goes, I am just following the rules. --metta, The Sunborn 21:32, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

How about a little blurb on pronunciation?

A second for that. The Greek pronunciation would suggest "nus" with a long U, but "noetic" suggests a double long "O" as in German.  ???

The "See Also" section

This section seems to be a bit cluttered with all sorts of references that are only marginally relevant. I think we ought to establish some criteria for what belongs there; Noosphere should not be treated as a catch-all phrase for any sort of "new age" material that someone wants to promote (like, for example, the Blood Music film.) --HK 21:34, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

How about: the linked article must contain the term "noosphere". — goethean 23:25, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
Well, that would certainly pare down the list a bit. --HK 23:43, 30 March 2006 (UTC)



The folowing sentence could use some elaboration. A somewhat different approach focuses on "sustainability," and begins to look at this concept in terms of "co-evolution" . --200.77.174.153 06:00, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
