Technological somnambulism

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

This page is a stub on a topic related to people's interactions with new media. This is important because it discusses the tendency to not be critically engaged when interacting with new technologies and media. My preliminary impression is that there is room for a great deal of expansion on this page, and also the possibility that it leans too heavily on Marshall McLuhan's existing media ecology theory to be regarded as a theory in its own right.

Evaluate the article
(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

The article is a stub, and as such it does not have all the key aspects listed in the evaluation section. The article is only two paragraphs long. The lead section and content are contained in the first paragraph and are reasonably well articulated and neutral. The second paragraph contains a small amount of criticism regarding the possible over reliance on McLuhan's work referenced above. The sources and citations are adequate, but there are no images or additional media. The talk page is entirely blank, there are no discussions at all. There are four wiki-projects listed as relevant: Philosophy/Science/Contemporary, History of Science, Technology, and Sociology. --Dan History and Theory (talk) 23:30, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
