- List of desk forms and types
cleanup date June 2009 Any list of desk forms and types encountered in the modern office or home, and in Antiques antique stores, is incomplete and contradictory given the variations in the naming of desks, as a simple lookup in two or three of the reference books below will demonstrate. Each article discusses the name variations and the most general article of all, desk , makes comparisons between several forms and places them in historical context. The division between desk form and desk type presented here is arbitrary, since there is no consensus as how to differentiate function, form, type and style in these matters, as the books in the reference section below show. A form here is something rather specific, while a type can be applied to any given form or all of them.

- List of valid argument forms
Valid argument forms are a subset of the many forms of argument that one can use. In order to evaluate these forms, the statements must first be put in logical form . Logical form replaces any sentences or ideas with letters to remove any bias from content and allow one to evaluate the argument without any bias due to what it talked about. ref name MIT Book cite book last May first Robert title Logical form its structure and derivation year 1993 publisher MIT Press location Cambridge, Mass ref The valid argument forms are the ones that are true every time so long as they fit the template for the argument as opposed to the list of invalid argument forms that may appear to be true but are not always the case. Being a valid argument does not necessarily mean the conclusion will be true. It is valid because if the premises are true, then the conclusion is guaranteed. It does not at any point state that the premises are true. This can be proven for any valid argument form in a truth table which shows that there is no situation in which there are all true premises and a false conclusion. ref name context and logical form cite journal last Stanley first Jason title Context and Logical Form journal Linguistics and Philosophy date 30 year 2000 month August volume 23 issue 4 ref Modus ponens One valid argument form is known as modus ponens , not to be mistaken with modus tollens which is another valid argument form that has a like sounding name and structure. Modus ponens sometimes abbreviated as MP says that if one thing is true, then another will be. It then states that the first is true.
