dubious source

Searched 2 major libraries and the internet. No record of this source anywhere -- #73. Ferron, Alexander (July 1, 1993). "13th Generational Malaise". Eye Magazine. Remove? I'd say so. 49.192.44.178 (talk) 11:28, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WW3?

Why is WW3 under 4th Turning for Homeland Generation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meco1999 (talkcontribs) 16:09, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It was a Twitter thing for a while. It's just generic vandalism. No one with any authority has made an actual declaration of WWIII at this time. -- Sleyece (talk) 00:22, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No as a member of the class of the promless 2020, I believe that the best 4th turning description would be the War on Terror against Radical Sunnis and Shiite Militias. See Al Qaeda and Hezbollah for more information. You may also see the Assassination of Qasem Soleimani for more information. I do believe that Generation Z lasts, based on calculations for only 2002 to 2019 and that Generation Alpha is beginning however this fact is disputed.

Hello to you commenters back in 2019! From here in mid-2022, the world is gripped by a conflict between one of the biggest nuclear powers (led by a utter lunatic) with a proxy ally to the other biggest nuclear power (led by a neoliberal hawk). This is following four years of the US being led by a wannabe dictator (thankfully incompetent). If we back date the fourth turning to the precipitating event of the 2008 financial crash, then our current situation is 14 years into the crisis turning and predictions about the possibility of WWIII are not, I repeat "not", overblown. 50.46.37.28 (talk) 01:54, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
i hope your being sarcastic. no human would actually want to start ww3. 99.27.106.23 (talk) 22:04, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

People have been predicting WW3 since WW2, it takes no real effort, any crisis will do. The idea that generational archetypes define human history is fanciful at best. From a brief read of the article I would say it is pseudoscience. It can't be tested.--Cuthbert Bargepole (talk) 01:56, 1 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Way too many primary sources

Yeah, I checked the references because of the too many primary sources error and found out that at least a quarter of the sources were from Strauss and Howe. Please fix as soon as possible. 49.192.44.178 (talk) 11:31, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have done what I can for the references, such as they are, for the moment.
The flat text references have been updated to citation and sfn templates. I think I have found and reduced all duplicates. I have standardized and reordered where it seemed appropriate. The primary references; Strauss & Howe, Howe & Strauss, and all the Lifecourse Associates remain. I am not a content editor by nature. I remain a gnomic reference/citation specialist mainly fixing issues with what is already present.
I leave it to content specialists to improve, excise, replace, and make useful. —¿philoserf? (talk) 19:10, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strauss Howes Generational Theory is underrated

As a person born in 2004 i am really relieved to be part of the millennial generation, from personal experience i feel like the people born in 04 and earlier did not grow up with smartphones and other forms of technology that younger people did, so it makes total sense that the age range for millennials is 1982 to 2004 DrAsh45 (talk) 14:15, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
