[edit] Art in Ancient Greece

Article is no longer a featured article.

Here I am going to go against my general feeling that problems should be listed on the article talk page first before here. I don't think any quick fixes will solve this any time soon. No references, entire portions of the subject with nothing but links to other articles, Image with no source information. - Taxman 05:18, Nov 5, 2004 (UTC)

  • As the original author of the article, I support its removal since it has been badly hacked about since I wrote it and is now a mess, which is one of the reasons I have largely withdrawn from Wikipedia editing. On your other points however: (1) I took the photos myself and they are tagged accordingly. (2) Since when do encyclopaedia articles need references? An encyclopadia is a reference.

    • I'm sorry you feel that way, collaborative editing can obviously bring out great articles. I am certainly not listing it here because I want it removed, but instead because I would like it improved to the level of other featured articles. The first image does not have any source tagging info. As to references they are now a basic requirement of featured articles. It is important that the information in wikipedia is verifiable, so the best sources in the subject should ideally be consulted and cited. - Taxman 14:03, Nov 5, 2004 (UTC)
  • Remove, until someone adds text to the blank sections summarising the "main articles". -- ALoan (Talk) 12:20, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Remove, agree with User:ALoan. --[[User:OldakQuill|Oldak Quill]] 00:39, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
