the only argument for keeping this seems to be that it is next in alphabetic succession to the one which is next in alphabetic succession to
Generation X, which is the only real one. Remove the foolish template and that problem goes away. Gen. X is notable, Gen. Y is made up by poeple with magazine

If the objection is the name, I don't care if it's called something else. Call it 'The generation after generation y' if you wish, or 'the generation from 1997' onwards. Other generations sometimes have disputed names - 'Silent' generation or 'Air raid' generation? But as a generation, these children

It was used in (and the title of) this article which I found with

Frankly I don't see why we need this now. "Generation Y" as it's sometimes called hasn't even had time to define themselves as a generation yet. How could "Generation Z" with no individual member any more then 5 years old have any definite characteristics? Generations define themselves, not the

It's waaaaay too early for this article to have any basis in reality other than in the hypothetical. As the article itself mentioned, even the name "Generation Z" is controversial because members of this generation are still far too young to have developed any peculiar generation-specific
193:- I agree with the above that we need it defined as the succeeding generation. "Generation Z" will suffice as a 'holding' name for some years until a proper name can be assigned. The points made in the article about this being the post 9-11 generation were valid.
179:- I agree with others that it is far too early to begin writing an article about this geenration, however I do feel it is important simply to have it defined as the succeeding generation to Gen Y. This way it won't be a red link on other pages. Just my two cents.

265:
No generation is listed as having ended at 11.15am on 28 Jan. Whereas the
Generation Y page does list Generation Y as having ended around 1997/2000 (as generations do after about 20 years). Therefore, since babies are still being born, a new generation must

You seem to be under a fundamental misconception about what
Knowledge (XXG) is: it's not here to document the emergent, it's about documenting what is already significant. Re-create this in twenty years if it becomes signifciant by this name. -

I'm not sure it does. Generation Y is controversial and/or unsuitable in many circles as the name for the
Gereration of the 80's and 90's. Why would Z, which is even more made up, POV, and fanciful name be

I'd try again in 20 years or so when we know more about this generation's culture, and hopefully by that time we'll have found a much, much better name than "Generation Z", too. ;)
