Humanistic coefficient[edit]
- ... that humanistic coefficient is a major element in the sociological theory of Florian Znaniecki?
- Reviewed: The Respawnables
- Comment: Too theoretical for my tastes to be able to come up with any more interesting hook, particularly for the general audience. I'd be happy to review any alternatives, of course. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 19:36, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

5x expanded, long enough, neutral, cited. AGF on offline sources, no close paraphrasing issues with the online ones. Hook is short enough, and in my view sufficiently puzzling to be interesting. I would be inclined to strike out the word "sociological" from the hook, but cannot make such a suggestion and also say: good to go. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:58, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- Shouldn't that be "the humanistic coeffecient" both in the hook and throughout the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carabinieri (talk • contribs)
- Perhaps; this is something a native speaker would know better than me. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:32, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
I am not convinced "the" is always grammatically needed, but agree it would be an improvement. If I make a change, I cannot re-approve. Maybe someone else, maybe Piotrus, will add "the" before "humanistic coefficient" everywhere it appears in hook or in article as Carabinieri suggests. Thanks, Aymatth2 (talk) 03:13, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
- Done. ALT1 with the is below. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:48, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
