Topic

The topic of Talk:Surrealism is the wikipedia Surrealism article, and how we can improve it. This is not the place to copy and paste lengthy texts or engage in arguments about non-wikipedia topics. Thank you for cooperating.

Definitions

Daniel, can you explain what you mean with this edit? We're writing the encyclopedia article about this, remember? What encyclopedia are you quoting from? Having an "encyclopedia definition" in the middle of an encyclopedia article doesn't sound right. ~leifHELO 21:16, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Ah! My mistake. I see this is Breton's "encyclopedia" definition. ~leifHELO

Cleanup / Call for Help

This whole article is a mess. It's unorganized and full of contradictory claims. It's pathetic that something more coherent hasn't come out of the months of edits here. I'm tempted to list this on Cleanup to get some more assistance clarifying and organizing it. Any objections? Does anybody think this article doesn't need to be reorganized? It's quite frustrating how certain non-logged-in users insist on adding poorly written sentences to the end of seemingly random paragraphs. Even if these contributions weren't hopelessly POV (and they usually are), they would still need to be rewritten to approach wikipedia standards. I think an increased number of experienced editors here would be helpful. ~leifHELO 21:16, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
