Concept

The idea of the work ethic has been used before. The only thing new is the title. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk / contribs)} 18:01, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know if there is another article descibing this particular phenomenon? I have modified the lead that it is only the term that is new. PhotographyEdits (talk) 07:42, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Forgot to tag you, so hereby: @Urban Versis 32. PhotographyEdits (talk) 07:43, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@PhotographyEdits, I couldn't find another article describing this ethic, therefore I think it should still be an article for now. I'll do some more research and see if I can find a similar article. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk / contribs)} 23:07, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The IP user below suggested the article Work-to-rule, therefore I added it to the "See Also" section and updated the Labor template with this article and included it on this article, as seen on the Work-to-rule article. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk / contribs)} 01:29, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Urban Versis 32 I think that is a great suggestion. I'm not even sure if these are different concepts. If so, this article would be a WP:POVFORK. Might be suitable for a merge. PhotographyEdits (talk) 07:27, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@PhotographyEdits Maybe, but the phenomenons occurred at different time periods. I would suggest a merge discussion, especially because this article may not be considered WP:NOTABLE by some. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk / contribs)} 18:25, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the notability is an issue here, but sure, I'll open a merge discussion. PhotographyEdits (talk) 18:29, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@PhotographyEdits Ok, thanks. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk / contribs)} 00:13, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the merge template to the article Throughthemind (talk) 07:58, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Work To Time

Merger discussion

I've added merge discussion templates for potentially merging this article into Work-to-rule, which redirect here. Throughthemind (talk) 08:01, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support: These are the same topic, just different names. The only thing is what to actually call the article. I would say "work-to-rule" is more long-lasting and so we should go with that.~BappleBusiness^[talk] 02:58, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support – This is, as the article says, just a phrase which came from a viral TikTok video; the person in the video is likely someone who believes they've discovered something revolutionary. It's the same philosophy as work-to-rule and should never have been given its own article. Although, rather than merging the article with work-to-rule this article should be deleted and redirected to work-to-rule as this article gives no meaningful information which is not already on the work-to-rule article, other than it was used by one person in a TikTok video in 2022 (not really noteworthy). – Dyolf87 (talk) 04:56, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Dyolf87 It might have originated from one TikTok video, but it was widely discussed in the media afterwards. I don't think that the WP:GNG is the relevant policy during this discussion. PhotographyEdits (talk) 11:23, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose this merge. Initially I agreed, but it seems to be a different subject from work-to-rule. This thread explained it clearly for me. Unlike work-to-rule, this is not a protest against employers, but a more general move towards a better work life balance. The subjects are related, but there is a difference that I think warrants a separate article. PhotographyEdits (talk) 10:58, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support. "Quiet quitting" would make more sense as a subsection of the work-to-rule article, possibly describing it as a generalisation or adaptation of the tactic to establish a healthier workplace culture/work-life balance. wwklnd (talk) 15:18, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support. "Quiet quitting" has been described as a rhetorical frame that "mischaracterizes doing the tasks you are paid for with the idea of quitting your job." Kilpatrick, Anna (19 August 2022). "What is 'quiet quitting,' and how it may be a misnomer for setting boundaries at work". NPR. Retrieved 27 August 2022.

The fact that the strategy has resurfaced with a new name does not change the fact that it continues to be used as a form of protest in my opinion. The evolution of the name and how it is discussed should all be captured in a single article, not as separate terms. Thiebes (talk) 05:16, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
