Proposed merge from sheeple
[edit]- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- To merge Sheeple into Herd behavior. Klbrain (talk) 06:57, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
Proposing to merge sheeple into this article. It's a pejorative neologism referring to the same subject. Per WP:NOPAGE it seems relatively straightforward. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:03, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Support as proposer — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:03, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Support. When we remove the original research and primary sources [4], [5] and [7] it will not lend undue weight to this article. wumbolo ^^^ 08:33, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Support the merger. --Jeonghyeonseo (talk) 10:59, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
Wiki wrong, no such thing as herd instinct or leader or crowd psyx etc. One can lead oneself, crowd etc or not doesn't matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lyhendq (talk • contribs) 07:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
Sheeple Suggested edit
[edit]Linking some discussion relevant here: I can't seem to edit this but I noticed while reading Finnegans Wake (published 1939) that he used the term "sheeples" - I decided to check if he was credited for first use. He doesn't appear to be. Perhaps it's an arguable case but I do think it is notable to note. FinnegansWiki (talk) 09:04, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
No Singular Form?
[edit]From the article...
The word is pluralia tantum, which means it does not have a singular form.
From me...
There is the term, sheeperson.
There also being a plural form of that term, sheepersons.

What's the difference between herd bahaior and conformation?
[edit]There's also an article conformation. I don't know what's the main difference between this article and that? Zzzwik (talk) 07:25, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
