Talk:Example

Draft of broad-concept article

This page has been tagged {{broad-concept article}}. I'd be willing to chip in, but I have a few points to bring up:

1. There's already a draft named "Draft:Example", but it's an example of a draft, not a draft of an article named "Example". So instead, I suppose drafting should take place at a different draft name like, say, "Example (1)" or in someone's userspace sandbox.
   • For reference, {{DraftChecker}} says: * There is a draft named Example. There's also a banner when editing the page thanks to {{Draft at}}.
2. What are some comparable broad-concept articles?
   • The best I can think of are Particular, Abstract and concrete, Abstraction, Idea, Model, Concept, Design, and Paradigm
   • Meanwhile, these are disambiguations: Demonstration, Exemplar, Meaning, Detail, Context, Thing, Generality, and Trope
3. What should the article look like and what sources should it draw from?
   • To start, I notice the above deal with metaphysics, linguistics, and a bit of ontology, and philosophy in general of course
4. Coincidentally, I'm also drafting Exempli gratia, if anyone's interested in contributing to that

FYI @Duckmather (since you added the tag)
