Not censored[edit]

Wikipedia is not censored, and I think that sexual act image would complete the article's coverage. So that's why I added the template in my past edit to this talkpage. Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 23:57, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Qwertyxp2000, WP:Not censored does not mean that we unnecessarily add sexual images. There is no need whatsoever for a sexual act image to be in this article, especially for the lead. Read WP:GRATUITOUS. The absence of a sexual act image does not at all decrease readers' understanding of the topic of love. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 15:23, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
As for this and this image currently in the article, their inclusion is fine, in my opinion. But are they needed? I would say no. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 15:39, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
I would seriously agree with the statement that the sex image isn't at all necessary. I suppose that they aren't even necessary to make it complete so I reckon it should be removed altogether. Not that I'm saying that it should be "obscene" to put in sexual acts in the article, but I suppose it just isn't vital nor necessary to complete the article. Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 21:23, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
Strangely, I noticed the Indian section of the article, but it seems that it does illustrate a "love" in terms of sexual love, but I deem it unnecessary for the completeness of the article. I even think this article can still be complete if the image weren't even included. What do you reckon about the inclusion of the image? Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 21:26, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
Wait... So you said their inclusion is fine but not needed. And WP:NOTCENSORED also means not add unnecessary sexual images. I don't see a necessity of applying this image if it isn't even the subject of the article. In my opinion, I think these images should be removed from this article and perhaps be put into a different more appropriate place, such as the sexual love article. Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 21:29, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
Qwertyxp2000, I was simply letting you know that sexual images do not automatically get protection from exclusion. The Human sexual activity article (what you call the Sexual love article) already has enough sexual images. Furthermore, since love can also be sexual love, the "sexual love" term should redirect to this article or to the Intimate relationship article, or even to the Romance (love) article. The India section states, in part, "Kama in Indian literature means 'desire, wish or longing'. In contemporary literature, kama refers usually to sexual desire. However, the term also refers to any sensory enjoyment, emotional attraction and aesthetic pleasure such as from arts, dance, music, painting, sculpture and nature." So that seems why that image was added. The image is not off-topic in that sense. I don't care if either image stays or goes. I made my initial above comment before looking at the two images. I was under the impression that you felt that people can just come in and add sexual images to the article and that those images get to stay because of WP:NOTCENSORED. So my initial commentary was to clear that up. As for this, there is no need to ping me to this page since this article/talk page is on my watchlist.

Love is not always "positive" and can be very painful, negative and a source of depression.[edit]

The opening sentence "Love encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states..." should read "Love encompasses a range of strong emotional and mental states..." — Preceding unsigned comment added by CoultonBerkinshaw (talkcontribs) 09:52, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

Could you provide some references/citations for this? The opening sentence is a ulitmate encompassing summary of the article. Love being painful, negative or source of depression is not mentioned anywhere in the article.--☾Loriendrew☽ (ring-ring) 23:40, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Request of Help[edit]

I was looking for some small help. I created an article Valentine's Day in Pakistan. While article subject orientation is related to Romance relationships and festival, but in some parts of the world it touches serious issues like violations of women's rights & Human rights At this stage looking for help in better chronological order within article, and continued copy edit help in times to come.

Thanks in advance.

Importance of love in our lives and difference between love and limerance[edit]

Love is not only "a strong attraction and emotional attachment" but also some kind of "oxygen" for our body and mind. The more connected you are, the healthier you will be both mentally and physically. The less love you have, the more depression you are likely to experience in your life. No matter if it is love to a spouse or a family member, to a pet or to a friend, love is an essential component of our well-being. Love to someone is different to the self-love. Being able to give the love to someone is different from loving yourself. the balance between these two make people feel good emotionally. It is also important to note that "a strong attraction and emotional attachment" has the limits - love that starts being delusive is not called love anymore but has a new name - limerence. Even though it can feel good, it rarely lasts for long periods of time. Daria2002ttf (talk) 22:58, 20 March 2020 (UTC) [1]

Under Persian view - second paragraph

Aziz Nasafi, a famous Muslim mystic from Central Asia and Iran, wrote the “Epistle on Love” (Risala fi’l ‘Ishq) in his work The Book of the Perfect Man (Kitab Insan al-Kamil). In the epistle he describes love as an emotion that is fostered in an individual for the beloved through four stages. These four stages are inclination (mayl), desire (iradat), affection (mahabbat) and love (‘ishq). He explains that these four stages lead the lover on a journey through which his love for his beloved progressively strengthens, until he becomes completely immersed in the beloved and the beloved becomes a part of him.

Under Islam (in Religious views) - last paragraph

Aziz Nasafi, a famous Muslim mystic from Central Asia and Iran, wrote the “Epistle on Love” (Risala fi’l Ishq) in his work, The Book of the Perfect Man (Kitab Insan al-Kamil). In the epistle he draws parallels between love and the remembrance of God. He explains that both love and remembrance have four stages. These four stages are inclination (mayl), desire (iradat), affection (mahabbat) and love (‘ishq). He explains that these four stages lead the lover on a journey through which his love for his beloved progressively strengthens, until he becomes completely immersed in the beloved and the beloved becomes a part of him. Similarly, a ‘rememberer’ (of God) progresses through the stages until God becomes predominant in his heart.

 Not done: - this is a general article about love, not for biographies of specific people - there is no Wikipedia articles on Aziz Nasafi - if he is notable (Wikipedia:Notability (people)) perhaps one could be created and his bio presented there - Epinoia (talk) 14:27, 15 November 2020 (UTC) - Epinoia (talk) 14:27, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
