To-do list for Psychoanalysis: edit·history·watch·refresh· Updated 2024-10-23

  • Move in-text refs to <ref></ref> tags
  • Do we need separate "Papers" reference lists in External links section?
  • Make sure links for citations in the psychotherapy section of the article work
  • Identify sources that are biased within the psychotherapy section and mark them for editing
  • Add missing details for current updates in psychotherapy and clear evidence for benefits of psychoanalytic therapy using meta-analysis data source
Ideal sources for Misplaced Pages's health content are defined in the guideline Misplaced Pages:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about Psychoanalysis.
Ruling on "Pseudoscience"

The Arbitration Committee has issued several rulings on guidelines for the presentation of material that might be labeled "pseudoscience". Relevant to this article:

  • Questionable science: Theories which have a substantial following, such as psychoanalysis, but which some critics allege to be pseudoscience, may contain information to that effect, but generally should not be so characterized.

fixing a date

Under "Further reading," the book by Borch-Jacobsen and Shamdasani is correctly stated to have been published in 2012. In footnote 10, however, the date is given as 2011-11-24, which does not make sense, because books, unlike magazine articles, are not cited with a specific date. My problem is that I don't know how to change footnote 10, because its contents are hidden behind symbols that I don't understand.Maurice Magnus (talk) 12:11, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

According to google books, it was published 24 November 2011. Do you have a source stating that it was published 2012? Phlsph7 (talk) 12:23, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Yes, the back of the title page says, "First published 2012." The Library of Congress catalog also says 2012. Apart from this particular case, how does one get behind those symbols? Maurice Magnus (talk) 12:40, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for looking it up, I fixed the date. I'm not sure which symbols you are talking about. If you edit the source code (i.e. not visual editing), the template contains the parameter "|date=" and you enter the date right behind it. See Help:A_quick_guide_to_templates and Template:Cite book.
