I don't think this article could say anything that couldn't be said in psychodynamics--Anonymaus (talk) 11:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe, but I hate it when Wikipedia confuses topics that have different meanings. Psychodynamics is the phenomenon, psychodynamic psychology is the study of the phenomenon, and psychodynamic psychiatry is the application of the study of the phonomenon to mental illness. One of the worst examples of such confusion leading to a very confusing outcome is Evolution which takes its topic as 'the theory of evolution', and then only considers one such theory. Evolution is the phenomenon, and there are, and have been, many theories. Once a topic is condensed like that, then editors argue for the exclusion of other theories on the grounds that they are not THE current theory. End result - there is nothing remotely resembling a satisfactory page on Evolution, the phenomenon. --Memestream (talk) 23:05, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
