First, it's not clear to me that this article is needed; the "verifiability theory of meaning" is the verification principle. The article starts by saying that the former is only derived from the latter, but goes on (correctly) to treat them as the same.

Secondly, it needs a lot of work in any case. Aside from copy-editing issues, it contains much rather vague gesturing at what unnamed people have suggested, argued, etc., in unnamed places. I've removed a couple of extreme cases, but more needs to be done.

Ah, I've just discovered that it's a Wikipedia article, which was turned into a redirect to Verificationist. --Peter J. King  Talk  09:15, 9 April 2007 (CDT)
