Revision and suggestion for further revision

I reduced the length of the section Disenchantment as Myth. This section focuses on one recent book, and previously took up roughly 1/4 of the overall entry on Disenchantment. I have not made the following change, but perhaps the section on Disenchantment as Myth should be retitled "Criticisms of Disenchantment" and further edited to include reference to some of the many other works critical of the thesis of disenchantment, rather than focusing solely on one recent treatment. For instance, the broader entry references works by Berger, Berman, and Jenkins, which are also critical of disenchantment, and which could be included in a section on criticisms. Thank you.

Globalize

Considered adding a {{globalize}}, however the article is currently just an explanation of Weber's term. Anyways leaving a comment to potentially prompt future editors to broaden the scope of this article. Tule-hog (talk) 17:18, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

Requested move 10 April 2025

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved. Slightly strange that one of the support votes doesn't really support the move, it's just a procedural support, but without any opposition and the target being the prior status quo, there's no reason not to move this. No prejudice against further RMs if someone wants to explore other options. This might just be one of those terms similar to Enclosure though, whose common dictionary meaning doesn't warrant an encyclopedic article, leaving us with a primary topic that isn't what "first comes to your mind"  — Amakuru (talk) 10:17, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

Disenchantment (social science) → Disenchantment – This article was recently moved without consensus and represents the primary topic for this term. The only one that exceeds it in page views is a television show that has existed for less than ten years. It should be noted that the move obscured the overall number of page views for the term. Furthermore, almost all Google Scholar search results relate to Max Weber's term. It clearly has long-term significance over all of the other uses of the word. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 19:12, 10 April 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 00:20, 18 April 2025 (UTC)

• Comment: This certainly doesn't fit what most people would think "Disenchantment" refers to, but apparently that's the title the article has had for a long time until a recent "bold" move. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 01:42, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
• Support. The undiscussed move should be reverted, but I don't think this is the primary topic for the term. It needs further discussion. Redirect to Disenchantment to Enchantment maybe? -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:06, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
