Talk:Heterogeneous
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Name
Should the name of this article be heterogeneity? I'm not sure what the general guidelines are, but it seems more natural that the name of the article should be a noun when possible. Threepounds 07:21, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Yes. It should certainly match the article on homogeneity.--RichardVeryard 23:40, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Disambiguation
As with the article on homogeneity, there are lots of pages that link here, referring to various notions of heterogeneity that are not explicitly identified on this page. Many of them refer to people - cultural, demographic, ethnic heterogeneity - and come from such diverse disciplines as sociology, anthropology, politics and marketing. We probably need a series of articles to cover these various notions - but how many?--RichardVeryard 23:40, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Overlap of material with homogeneity
Suppose we decided we needed some material on homogeneity/heterogeneity in culture. Would we want an article on Cultural homogeneity and also an article on Cultural heterogeneity? I think it would generally be easier to write (and more useful to read) a single article covering both.--RichardVeryard 23:40, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
