Critical feedback based on Father's Day 2017 version
After repeated requests from User:Baby Boy for some critical notes on this article, I've picked Father's Day 2017 to start critically reading and responding. --BigSmoke (talk) 09:39, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
Father's Day feedback on: Introduction
The introduction is very long-winded. Twelve paragraphs are used to convey the following information:
- The article was written at the request of Victor Koekkoek.
- The article should be read after A guided tour through the Omega Research Wiki.
- Or, at least, after having read Definitions of "Point Omega", or the same in Self-blindness in humans as prerequisite for the evolution of advanced intelligence.
- The information in this wiki is scattered about various islands of specialist knowledge,
- and therefore not readily accessible to the general public.
- Also, the general public—the ‘herd’—is, in your opinion, not capable of grasping this information.
Too much time is spent to convince the reader of the uniqueness of the information compiled on this wiki, and the unique, elite combination of mentality and intelligence that is required to follow the argumentation.
Father's Day feedback on: Lost perspectives, . . . . . what next ?
This section is quite readable and does entice the reader—me, at least—to continue to the rest of the article. It feels more like an appetizer than the first section, because it makes less of an appeal to the reader to join the “exclusive, smart, original” tribe, which, frankly, comes across as narcissistic and childish.
Father's Day feedback on: New facts we need to take into account
Although I disagree with (the factuality of) some of the basic premises, I like how they are summarized here. I've gone over the sources of disagreement with User:Baby Boy before, but not in this medium. Perhaps, next Father's Day, if I feel brave enough, I will provide some critical feedback on A guided tour through the Omega Research Wiki.
