Generation X
Actually, I made the same suggestion after the most recent consensus. '''I wanted to alert the administrators, and suggest we mention 1982, but write "usually no later than 1981, but sometimes as late as 1982 (or what you wrote: although some sources go as late as 1982)." I argued that it is more common to see 1981 as the end date for Generation X, as 1982 is commonly used as the start of Generation Y/Millennials''', but this discussion has gone on for months (and several discussion pages). I have been busy with work and family, but am working with a more experienced editor/administrator on how to tackle this issue. I propose an amendment to the sentence, but please do not change the wording without discussion, as Peregrine981 has pointed out that this discussion has been beaten to death. It would also be beneficial if you created a username and joined Wikipedia, as you will have more privileges than an anonymous user. If you know others that are interested in this discussion, please direct them to this page. However, because a consensus was reached regarding the wording of this article's introduction, it is best to mention such changes on this discussion page. Thanks for your input.

I posted the same message on the Generation X Talk page, but I was not sure you would check that page for a response. Please go to the link below to continue the discussion.

I see that we agree on the 1981 end date. If you take a look at the Archives (I think pages 2 onward) on the Generation X Talk page, I have listed several sources using 1981 as the end date for Generation X. You can take a look at my contributions. I think my recent edits have been very fair.

There is another editor (not anonymous) who agrees with me and you. I think my wording is fair because it includes both 1981 and 1982. If you'd like to continue the discussion, you know where to post. I think we will leave the wording alone for now, as my recent edit was reverted again. It is best to wait until we have more editors to support our claims, or wait for administrators to decide. I'd like to thank you for your participation in the discussion. Best of luck on Wikipedia.
