Accepted

[edit]

I accepted this draft, but am tempted to stubify it. The topic appears real, well sourced, but the draft went beyond the scope of the topic, content-forking other topics. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:20, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Name?

[edit]

"self constancy" only gets 7,450 googles while "self consistency" gets 613,000 googles. Should we change what title we have this article at? RJFJR (talk) 16:58, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • No. Self consistency is a different, older, very common term that refers to a behaviour, of people, and of theories. “Self constancy” is a nuanced internal psychological phenomena. That’s my reading, anyway. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:29, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Consistency in dates

[edit]

In the second sentence of the article, it says the theory was developed by Prescott Leckey in the 1920s, but in the following section, it says the term was first coined by Heinz Hartmann in 1952. Is there a subtlety here w/r/t theory vs. terminology, or is it just a mistake? B. Ellinies (talk) 22:15, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
