[edit] Formal logic
(I apologize in advance: It's WAY too hot here right now, and my own formal logic experience is dusty, so this will just be whining without making things better myself.)
While I approve of LaTeX coding and all that, the current version of that section is basically gibberish to people who don't know formal logic or Latin (not saying that the version before that was that much better - the example could use work, and the Latin needed translation, too - but it at least was readable). Somebody might need to explain/translate "modus ponens" and maybe come up with a more readable example (maybe with explanations in side-by-side format?). Also, the "Socrates us mortal" thing needs a ref or expansion.
Again, apologies for not being more constructive here. X_x --Sid (talk) 22:23, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Forget something.
You people forget to add other forms of logic such as Hybrid Logic, Fuzzy Logic, Linear Logic, and epistemic logic. --Reason23 (talk) 01:23, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
- Christ-on-a-shit-bike we actually don't have anything specific on fuzzy logic. Will have to rectify that.

[edit] See 2 of those
--Reason23 (talk) 13:40, 31 December 2012 (UTC)I see Linear logic and Fuzzy logic but not hybrid logic or epistemic logic.
[edit] There's no such thing as Informal Logic.
The validity of an argument or proposition can only be broken down by the Formal method thus the study of informal logic is incompatible with it being a discipline unto itself over this entire fact. You're essentially applying formal logic into an informal setting which isn't synonymous with basing the virtues of informal structures to validate said argument.
Informal Logic is something ought to be more aligned towards fields of Psychology and Rhetoric/Orator rather than Philosophy.— Unsigned, by: Pentrazemine / talk / contribs 03:20, 23 February 2015
