Talk:Generation Alpha

Vandalism
Page got vandalized. I don’t know how to revert to previous version. Robertrtk (talk) 22:11, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Shouldn’t the shortened version be spelt with the letter
Generation X and Gen X.

Millenial, Generation Y, and Gen Y.

Generation Z or Gen Z.

So shouldn’t it be Generation Alpha or Gen Α α 2604:3D09:1F80:CA00:602A:5268:4F01:13A3 (talk) 18:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Because rolling over to Greek Letters when you run out of English letters is pretty common for this sort of thing. The Upcoming/Just Started generation of Generation Beta would be Gen 142.59.71.36 (talk) 18:31, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia reports existing usage, it doesn't prescribe usage, and people don't usually refer to Gen Alpha as Gen A. Dan Bloch (talk) 18:57, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I mean they do refer to it as that, I'm pronouncing it Alpha when I read it single letter, not A(Aye).
 * If we were to do that it would probably be the lower case despite that breaking tradition because I think that's what people recognize. Just pointing out all the previous ones were just the letter and we weren't writing it phoenetically (It's not Generation Ex, Generation Wi, or Generation Zee) 2604:3D09:1F80:CA00:B9C6:B709:21A4:6ADC (talk) 07:07, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Screen time sources are bad
94 and 95 links to press articles and not to the actual sources. Forbes has a dead link to its source. The VICE source is https://www.commonsensemedia.org/sites/default/files/research/report/2020_zero_to_eight_census_final_web.pdf

I did not searched the Forbes' source, but source from VICE says 77% have access and the average screen time is from 40mn to +3h, depending on the age range. The current state of the section is badly sourced at best, misleading at worst. 2A01:E0A:226:BA00:A042:F90B:67BA:A953 (talk) 18:39, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
