The main link that I can see is relevant is spatial scale which makes a comment about statistical uses of scale for social and environmental analysis, for example. I think explaining the use of scale in MUSAIASEM would lead to a better outcome; integrating the links into a sentence or paragraph discussion of the use of scale theory. This would give more context and be easier to understand rather than simply linking all the areas that it has been claimed to be used in. More generally, I haven't yet had time to read the currently cited articles but it does seem that like without more detail on the formal definition used there, it is hard to separate this term from say Point of view (philosophy) or the statistical sense of data scaling (as mentioned above with spatial scale, in the sense of a mathematical space).

Regarding Scale and Big/Large/Deep theories: It seems that these theories use and apply this sense of scale in their analysis, particularly a very wide and general scale. That being said, it seems to need more citations for it, even if they are the same ones used by the other articles to link back to here. Otherwise it seems the connection between the articles is rather tenuous and hard to comprehend. Techhead7890 (talk) 19:48, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
