[edit] List of revenues
Direct quote from a primary historical source (Herodotus). Not suitable as an encyclopedic article as is, and I don't think the subject itself warrants an article, either. Delete -- Egil 06:47, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. This is Darius I of Persia. The list itself is of considerable historical interest, and a subsection about it at Darius's article would be useful. But I can't vote for merge because I don't think the list should be incorporated, just the lessons to be drawn from it. Sorry to be wishy-washy. Chick Bowen 23:26, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment Though unedited material in tabular format must rank high on the "NPOV" scale, Chick Bowen is right. An introductory paragraph is essential, but the application of this in information is broader than just Darius the King. It should appear in the entry Achaemenid dynasty, following the subsection "System of governing". --Wetman 12:46, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
