{{merge|Alcibiades}}

from article page - I just split the two:

  1. Give room to the discussion of the Socratic dialogues about Alcibiades, separately from Alcibiades' bio, that is already quite extended, and can still be extended further.
  2. Categorise the Alcibiades article as a "dialogue" somehow doesn't make much sense.

Removed comparison[edit]

I removed the text that read: "Contrary to the leisurely atmosphere of the Symposium dialogue, the Alcibiades dialogues are placed towards the end of Socrates' life, and refer to his trial."— Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.17.122.155 (talkcontribs) Neither dialogue refers to Socrates' trial and neither is set toward the end of Socrates' life. The dramatic date of both may be placed in or near 432 BCE, when Alcibiades was almost 20.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Isocrates (talkcontribs) Also, I question the relevance of the comparison between the Alcibiades dialogues on the one hand with the Symposium and Phaedrus on the other, and whether it makes any sense to suggest that the former "level up with" the latter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.17.122.155 (talkcontribs)
