:I think Paul Graham is an established expert on programming, but psychology stuff? I think it's fine to use the diagram in a Wikipedia policy page, but not in his biography. The Guardian source is a bit small to make it warrant an entire section. I am still in favor of removing it here.

* (also in response to [[Talk:Paul_Graham_(programmer)#Graham's_hierarchy_of_disagreement?|thread above]]) The threshold for simply including a given topic in an article is not as high as [[WP:N]]'s threshold, which is for said topic to have its own article -- and not everything about a subject has to be about the main thing(s) for which the subject is notable if we have RS.
 
:That said, since the concern is notability, here is another RS: [https://bigthink.com/personal-growth/how-to-disagree-well-7-of-the-best-and-worst-ways-to-argue/ How to disagree well: 7 of the best and worst ways to argue], from [[Big Think]].  IMO that (and the rest) are sufficient RS for our purposes; note that [[Media Bias/Fact Check]] gives it the highest possible rating. [https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/big-think/] &nbsp Thus I !vote to '''include section''', adding above RS.
 
:And [[WP:IAR|not for nothing]], having it here helps both readers and editors, thereby making for a better Wikipedia. Perhaps though, per [[WP:UNDUE]], the section could be pruned. --[[User:Middle 8|Middle 8]] <sup>[[User:Middle 8/Privacy|privacy]]</sup> • <sub>([[Special:Contributions/Middle_8|s]])[[User talk:Middle 8|talk]]</sub> 04:49, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
