[edit] Archaeology articles

Hi, sorry it's taken me a while to get back to you. I don't have a lot of time available for WP at the moment. I think it's great what you have been doing, and thanks for the personal contact. My thoughts are that one of us should create the article for Methods and principles in archaeology to go with the Category:Methods and principles in archaeology. I agree with you that Archaeological science is actually a sub-category, and it would be great to have excavation techniques and features organised, possibly also forming another sub-category. Another problem in the archaeology articles is lack of images and lack of references, so all such improvement would be welcomed by the community. Don't worry about quality of English. One thing that I have found is that if someone makes a start on an article, and gets some good structure and content into it, there are lots of editors who will come along later and improve the grammar, spelling and links! I should have some time in a week or so, and might be able to have a go at Methods and principles in archaeology then. Welcome again. Viv Hamilton 17:40, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dating methodology (archaeology)

I just did some editing of Dating methodology (archaeology) and I see all the previous work was yours. Well done. (There are still one or two rather densely-written sentences but I've left it for someone else.) Nurg 05:42, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I've collected all dating methods into one category Category:Dating methods Viv Hamilton 15:27, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dating methods category

To be honest I found the number of articles in the methods and principles category a bit daunting - a question of not being able to see the wood for the trees - hence the subcategory. There were a few articles like Harris matrix, context, sequence etc., which are principles of the way one works, but also fundamental to dating, I thought I'd erred on the side of leaving those in methods and principles, but clearly at least one slipped through. There are bound to be a few of them that we later decide need recategorising. I will try to find time to have a go at the outline of the methods and principles article!
