Should we do something about this?

I was the original author of this page, and as such I resoundingly say yes this is a problem that we should fix. Whether out of habit, or laziness, or because it's how people assumed it was supposed to be, our articles are a lot of boring lists. — It's dot com 05:11, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

We should definitely aim to fix this. It's been a problem for a long time, regardless of how the trend got started. — Lapper (talk) 05:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

If so, what should we do?

I think we should begin by removing as many of the clichés as we can. Next, we should expand the introductions to give some actual depth (and possibly even anaylsis, if it can be done without speculation) to the articles. — It's dot com 05:11, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

I think we need to do those two things at the same time, since as you said, sometimes it's the only introductory sentence. Also, I don't know if we should stretch as far as analysis, because we're going to have a tough time keeping that objective. — Lapper (talk) 05:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
