I propose that section Philosophical pessimism be moved to a new dedicated page Philosophical pessimism. Philosophical pessimism is a very specific tradition in philosophy as can be clearly seen in the section and from the books. This has no connection to psychology, technology, entropy, or even epistemological pessimism. As such, it would be good to create a dedicated page and link this page in the current article. This move would result in the same thing as with Cultural pessimism - a short description in the current article and a link to a much more detailed Philosophical pessimism page. Even Wikiquote has a dedicated page for that: Wikiquote:Philosophical pessimism. Please see the draft page I created for the new page - Draft:Philosophical_pessimism. We can already start editing that draft, together. I'm calling some editors who I believe would wish to comment: @Javierfv1212, Throughthemind, Gaeanautes, Spencerk, Lestrade, Omnipaedista, Sirhu, Tisane, Sinveil, Ihcoyc, and FitzColinGerald:.

An article that you have been involved with (Pessimism#Philosophical pessimism) has some content that is proposed to be moved to another article (Philosophical pessimism). If you are interested, please visit the discussion at Talk:Pessimism#Move section Philosophical Pessimism to its own page - a proposal. Thank you. Fantastiera (talk) 12:40, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
@Avast rumali, about your edit here [1], that website seems like a source that shouldn't be used on WP. I quote:
"123HelpMe.com has been helping students and professionals from around the world for more than 7 years. We comply with all consumer protection laws and voluntary guidelines -- no exceptions!

If the text originally comes from a WP:RS publication, you should cite that publication, not the website. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:04, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
I've added copyright tags as the Notes section contains significant amounts of copy-pasted copyright edits. I don't think they are uncontestable violations so I haven't removed them or required RevDels but I still wanted to point it out. Would value any feedback on it. Amadeus22 🙋 🔔 23:10, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
I'm putting here a suggestion to move Pessimism#Epistemological type to Philosophical pessimism, because it does not talk about psychological disposition, but rather it is a philosophical account of knowledge and its limits. As a start, Epistemological pessimism should be moved there. We could talk about the rest (Cultural, Technological and Environmental) later. I'm calling some editors who I believe would wish to comment: @Javierfv1212, Throughthemind, Gaeanautes, Spencerk, Lestrade, Omnipaedista, Sirhu, Tisane, Sinveil, Ihcoyc, FitzColinGerald, Nero's Fiddle, and Delukiel:.
