There is more needed on the romantic elements section
The article should mention that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.199.163.158 ( talk) 02:37, 11 February 2007 (UTC).
This page is caked with unnecessary adjectives and words. The gradesaver page sums up the story way more efficiently. We're looking for a summary and analysis of the story, not something to impress us. 70.80.66.195 01:24, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
This reads like an English assignment, not an encyclopedia article. 209.250.164.233 ( talk) 19:24, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

The Setting part of this article misstates several things. The street itself is not "blind," the street IS A BLIND. A blind is a cul de sac. -- PureRED - Kyle Floyd ( talk) 03:08, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
What's possibly most important concerning the exchange between the narrator and the stall girl is that the stall-girl was English. The English in that period were rather disliked (to put it softly) by the Irish during this time period; when he sees his two idealizations - the Outside World (represented by Araby) and Sexuality - being associated with the English, he becomes disgusted. But then, as he leaves, he finally recognizes the false idealizations, which prompts the epiphany: "he was a creature driven and derided by vanity".
In other words, I don't think that he's miffed that the stall girl mostly ignored him, especially when he's very curt with her when she does talk to him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.231.113.128 ( talk) 08:15, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
The author seems to analyze the story with original research in the Plot section. The Analysis ought to be in another section with context from other sources. The nature of the writing violates the neutrality of the article. 2602:30A:C042:C130:54A9:B61E:839D:88A6 ( talk) 17:46, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
