 * This is an exciting and fruitful topic. It is a theory of cognition that aims to explain how humans are creative and in general how meaning is generated. I've added close to 50 links in the Talk:Conceptual_blending/Resources section. These links taken together provide enough of a definitive base to write an accurate and comprehensive encyclopedic article. -- Gyan 22:16, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)-
 * I'm calling for volunteers to help me with this article. I've setup a Draft space, for article discussion. I shall put up an outline soon to get things started. -- Gyan 22:16, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)-

 * Google returns a very scant amount of information - this will be hard to research. On the flip side, this means that wikipedia could be the source for info on this rather interesting subject.  Would be good for the "Did you know..." section of the main page. PlatinumX

 * Seems a decent size article already, but you never know. Burgundavia 10:11, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC)

 * Theatre encompasses the whole topic. This refers to a specific kind of theatre, the most common one. Comedy and Tragedy are also types of theatre. Burgundavia 08:39, Jun 30, 2004 (UTC)

 * It's a large template that is mostly not filled in. Different editors (myself included) have tried taking this article under our wing to make it fly, and found it far too vast for our knowledge to cover.  It really needs many many eyes and minds to build out the various sections and make it something to be proud of. Jwrosenzweig 23:19, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Gracious - that is ambitious! Isn't one article going to get a bit long and unwieldy?  Perhaps it would be better to have a general article, not much longer than that there already, with links to specific articles on each sub-genre? -- ALoan (Talk) 13:55, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * I don't know what to say -- we should have a 30 K article on each of the Sections there, really. [[User:Sverdrup|❝Sverdrup❞ ]] 13:57, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * My point, really, is that it may be more effective to concentrate on one of the sub-genres (particularly one that does not exist) rather than the whole history of literature. However, full marks for vision. -- ALoan (Talk) 10:48, 2 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * There are already articles on Literature, Poetry, Theatre, Fiction and any number of national literatures and literary forms. I think this should be a short overview with a lot of links. Now, if anybody feels like tackling the Literature page, that's another matter. Bmills 14:23, 2 Jul 2004 (UTC)
