[edit] Itrw

This page was one of the contributions of User:rktect, and was regretfully missed in the cleanup process after the Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Rktect, where he was banned indefinitely from all articles which relate to weights and measures. For questions wrt the validity of the content of this article, please read the text of the arbritation. There is nothing of value here, anything relevant to Egyptian measures should be in Ancient Egyptian units of measurement (which requires a thorough cleanup, but that is another matter). Yes, there exists a unit of measure like this, but the conventional spelling in English texts is atur. Egil 16:38, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

• Merge what is valid and isn't already in Ancient Egyptian units of measurement. Itrw appears to be an archaic term, per about 700 google results for Itrw measurement. Many of these results are either Wikipedia (the article itself and its mention in Ancient Egyptian units of measurements), mirrors of the Wikipedia results, or completely unrelated blogs and/or businesses. After reading the RfAr, I'm quite sure that the reason I cannot find any online source (even an unreliable one) to back up half of the claims in the article is that they're fabricated or original research. I looked for confirming sources under the term "atur" as well. Srose (talk) 16:57, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Maybe there's something worth merging but I trust Egil's judgement on this one. Dlyons493 Talk 18:08, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
