Either nobody added one, or it got deleted. Check the history. Also, people will think more highly of you if you avoid asking dumb questions, especially questions that can be answered with 2 minutes of research.

Today is Friday July 1, 2022. The current GMT time is 7:41PM. A search from the U.S. on Google with the following parameters: site:wikipedia.org "Error Of Omission" Yields no English Wikipedia web pages! "Error Of Omission" -- is a subject frequently encountered in Philosophy... Now, maybe it's there in some other form... Maybe I am not searching hard enough... And yes, I know I could, in theory, create such a page, and "start the ball rolling"... But it seems to me that Wikipedia, with all of its great articles in Philosophy -- should have covered the subject in some form or other... I would vote (if I were voting) -- that "Error Of Omission" (in Philosophy) -- should have its own Wikipedia web page dedicated to the subject... Again, maybe I did not search hard enough... If someone knows of an English Wikipedia page dedicated to the philosophical concept of "Error Of Omission" -- then please post a link!
