This is more a hagiography than a wikipedia article
This article is in urgent need of revision, sentences such as, ""his intellect was logical in the highest degree; he was clear and precise, an enemy of loose reasoning, and quick to refute prevailing fallacies" should be reserved for eulogies and not wikipedia entries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.68.171.229 (talk) 06:41, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
James Mill did not support the Catechism; although this article neglects to mention it. But Category:Atheists has much stronger requirements: what did he disbelieve, and how do we know? Septentrionalis 20:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
It could be mentioned that Mill's "Analysis" is available online at "Internet Archive". Regarding his importance Franz Brentano's critique of Mill could be mentioned.

- Analysis at Internet Archive has been added. But the article still largely reproduces the Encyclopedia Britannica article of 1911. Like Britannica, its body cheerfully omits his death. Errantius (talk) 00:27, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Associationalism or associationism
Under "School" in the infobox there is an entry for Associationalism. It seems likely to me that this should read Associationism; he is mentioned as a prominent proponent on the latter page but not mentioned at all in the former; from skimming the former page, that movement also seems later than Mill. I will be substituting Associationism in the infobox; if someone more expert in the field than I am (not at all) detects this to be an error, feel free to revert, of course.
