Article needs to discuss Dewey's crucial leadership role in the Secular Humanist movement - particularly his involvement with Humanist Manifest Number One.--DrWSO 00:43, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Of Irish Descent?
editI would have to locate the reference but I believe the Dewey's are of Irish descent, though I don't think like William James of Scots-Irish descent. Does anyone have information on this or I might be able to find it and add it? I'm thinking it might not be important to mention in the article in the way of genealogy of the migration of the Dewey's (if there is one), but just along the lines of wikipedia categories which are found at the bottom of each article. -- Teetotaler 18 January, 2015
His trip to Japan was very interesting
editHe considered the people to be polite, but was also critical of the nation's political structure and called for better foreign intervention. It was basically an early example of having what was considered to be a good and pro-democracy society question authority.[1]68.47.64.121 (talk) 14:18, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
The “overriding theme of Disney”
editI assume this is a mistake and the sentence was meant to reference Dewey, not Disney. 141.140.253.14 (talk) 18:37, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
Article issues and classification
edit- This article has several issues.
- Unsourced sentences and paragraphs,
- Multiple single-sentence paragraphs, some unsourced, some with 25 or fewer words.
- Unsourced quotes. This "may" seem argumentative but the presentation of the "Logic and method" section shows there is a lack of text–source integrity.
- An overabundance of Primary sources.
- Further reading- 35 links!
- There are seven entries in the "External links". Three seems to be an acceptable number and of course, everyone has their favorite to add for four. The problem is that none is needed for article promotion.
- ELpoints #3) states:
Links in the "External links" section should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links.
- LINKFARM states:
There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to the external links section of an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia. On articles about topics with many fansites, for example, including a link to one major fansite may be appropriate.
- WP:ELMIN:
Minimize the number of links
