But what is The Venus Project?
I came to this page having seen the phrase, and after reading this article I'm still barely any wiser as to what it actually *is*. That needs to be explained concisely in the lead and/or at the start of the relevant section. 86.184.245.71 (talk) 01:55, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
- 86.184.245.71, explaining what it is is impossible except as "Whatever Jaque Fresco says it is". The Venus Project is what Fresco does. It is he, and he is it. Technically speaking, it's just the name of his company. --OpenFuture (talk) 17:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- It's explained here https://www.thevenusproject.com/faq/what-is-the-venus-project/
- Basically, it's the result of applying the scientific method to our social system. Problems are worked out and resolved scientifically, as opposed to electing politicians to make decisions. Imagine taking the same engineers that develop smartphones and having them develop a society. The resulting society could function properly, at least most of the time, and suit the needs of most people. Compare that with today's society that evolves slowly and primarily suits those at the top. Universal Basic Outcome (talk) 18:06, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
Edit request : Minor Grammatical Edit in Venus Project
Hi all. Forgive me, first time using the "talk" page. I assume I am breaking protocols by the style of my post here, but just want to bring this to your attention...
I am reading through this Wikipedia page as an article, and when I get to the "Venus Project and later career" section, his partner Roxanne Meadows is introduced rather abruptly. She has never been mentioned up til this point, and thus I believe a basic grammatical introduction is a good idea. Something along the lines of:
"Fresco, with his partner Roxanne Meadows, supported the project..."
That's all!
I recognise she is introduced in a captioned image on the left, but if reading the Wiki page like I was in an article style, it's probably not considered until after the section has been completed.
I hope this helps!
Thanks for the amazing work everyone! Keep it up. :)
