Talk:Oversimplification

It is a gross oversimplication for this page to redirect to Fallacy of the single cause. I would have preferred a redirect to simplification. Ideally a general (stub?) article with Fallacy of the single cause being just one in a litany of others.

A search on "oversimplifying" yields
 * Rotten_Tomatoes
 * Straw man
 * Stereotypes of Asians - but any stereotype and Caricature
 * Naive Bayes classifier - but any naïveté
 * Folklore
 * Common misunderstandings of genetics - but any misunderstanding or misperception
 * Media_bias_in_the_United_States - but any bias makes you miss details
 * False equivalence - but of course, any fallacy, error, etc.
 * Simplification - often does lead to it, possibly not in-itself, but by those who learned the half-truths
 * Dumbing down
 * Possession is nine-tenths of the law, most proverbs and aphorisms

And that's not including the name calling of any idea as "oversimplified" which appears frequently in articles.

And lets not forget An Oversimplification of Her Beauty.
