Seven Principles

edit

I didn't see much on the seven principles and wanted to add a section briefly summarizing them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rush1775 (talkcontribs) 06:13, 10 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

I did my best on the summaries and struggled with trying to get the formatting to be uniform. I also know this source is from his book, but I thought at least give the man his chance to get his word in for the article on his book. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rush1775 (talkcontribs) 06:36, 10 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, but this level of detail is inappropriate for a Wikipedia article. See WP:NONFICTION. Stonkaments (talk) 15:25, 10 March 2021 (UTC)Reply


I added more detail under the Overview section, defining the four horsemen, as well as listing and explaining the things Gottman explains are things that he looks for in predicting divorce. I also added the book "The Seven Principles for Making a Marriage Work" to the sources, because I felt it was inappropriate to have an article about the book without having cited it.

As mentioned above, this level of detail is inappropriate for a Wikipedia article. Please see WP:NONFICTION. For an encyclopedia, it's important to focus on what secondary sources say about the book, not what the book itself says. Stonkaments (talk) 17:13, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
