 * The above list was provided by a blocked editor. Is there any objection if I merge some of the items in this list with the items on the resource page for this Talk? (Some of them do not seem like emotions to me, exactly, or even at all. "Stigmatized," for example, refers to the action of something external; yes, someone can have an internal emotional reaction to that, but that reaction might be shame, fear, anger, panicked, etc. "Stigmatized" is not actually an emotion or feeling.) Many items in the resource list also seem to be mere synonyms for other items. Some of the names refer to emotional states varying, not in themselves, but by the external cause. I don't know how this list is to be used. Would there be a value in classifying together emotions that are closely related? Synonyms? --Abd 23:09, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
