Multidisciplinary theory

The text under Multidisciplinary theory is nonsensical.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.139.18.42 (talk) 00:14, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So it was. It appears to have been written by the scholar whom it cites, Teun A. Van Dijk, who was also the first contributor to this article. How upsetting an article of such poor quality, containing so conspicuous a conflict of interest, survived with minimal improvements for fully ten years. This content is now deleted, and I hope to fully rewrite the article soon. Dan 09:34, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Propose page move to "Context (communication)"

May I propose that this page be moved to the title "Context (communication)", which would allow for the topic to be treated in terms of the more general perspective of communication, rather than the narrower perspective of language-mediated communication. Dan 04:39, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
