BAM. Sandbox. Haven't played with one of these in quite some time. I remember when I was young and became frightened whenever the dull buzz of the 'sand bees' drew near.Psyc452-GGeorge (talk)


 * As Tryptofish suggests, it is rare for students to attain the motivation to be bold and edit/improve the main EP article. Colin, I recognize the editor goals of better articles, new-editor retention, and a desire to not have to clean up a giant mess. I can see why unthinkingly creating new articles is harmful and can create tangential articles with repetitious material. That being said, I believe that we can work something out that satisfies our student goals and yours as well. We aren't a massive editing force of chaos or the University of Toronto. Think of us more as a short-term SPA interested in EP. We originally had the goal of posting EP sub-articles but (quality issues aside for now) ran into issues like content forks/duplicating old material, notability, and deletion for those issues.Psyc452-GGeorge (talk) 03:40, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Non-Kin
Less on reciprocal altruism, more on other things. Moving away from Triver's which is all that's on the main EP page.
 * Evolutionary psychology of non-kin group interactions vs Reciprocal altruism

Language
The only duplication or close similarity is the Fox Gene. Some material now on EP page.
 * Evolutionary psychology of language vs Evolutionary linguistics

Personality
Proposed update to Big Five article: subheading of Evolutionary theory. Possible Addition to personality psychology
 * Evolutionary psychology of Personality essay containing some general Evolutionary psychology and Big Five personality traits

Cognition
Not much new stuff here. Definitely delete the "general purpose" stuff. You don't need to compare the standard/old way of thinking on the EP cognition page.
 * Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Evolutionary psychology of cognition
