[edit] Invasion theory
Unsourced since June of 2006. I tried to add some references but the only Google hits that turn up refer to Aryan invasion theory, or trivial passing references to invasionism. Most likely impossible to assert its importance and notability. Hazillow (talk) 17:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

- A google scholar search returns many useful hits. The article claims that the theory has fallen out of fashion, and that it did so in the 1960s. Thus there's unlikely to be much online refs for it. It's not a horrid article. Could it be tagged for some project (history? archaeology?) for a few weeks to see if someone can clean it up a bit. I know it's had the unsourced link on it for some time. this source seems useful?? Dan Beale-Cocks 18:45, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete the very term "invasion theory" itself is vague and undefined, as is the article. The fact is that there is no scholarly theory such as this, except perhaps in the article author's own head. It's not worth keeping. StudierMalMarburg (talk) 18:49, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, very definitely real and historical concept that desperately needs sourcing. --Dhartung | Talk 20:37, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Nomination withdrawn per Dan Beale-Cock's sources. I'll tag it for history. Hazillow (talk) 20:39, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
