==Better name for "Outside context problem"==
[[User:MyRedDice]] deleted the "Outside context problem" column with the comment ''rm OCP - Iain Banks is not a scientist - out of place here''.

(contracted; show full)definition of progress has a valid basis, and I agree that we should take advantage of hindsight. I am just making the points that (a) some people might classify events differently than you (they might not even think that "progress" is a good thing, or they might think that all nonhuman species are worthless except as food, although these points of view are probably rare amongst Wikipedians), and (b) whatever definition we use, it should be stated. --[[User:Heron|Heron]] 17:33, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)


:''progress'' and ''regression'' are problematic here - very POV dependent. I would vote for elimination and combination into a more neutral '''Major Events'''. As an example, I've moved religion and majic to ''regression''. Does that bother anyone? ;)<br>-[[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] 00:24, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)⏎
