[edit] Re: Twenty-eighth dynasty of Egypt
I'm puzzled why you think your version of this article is better than mine. As I understand the Wikipedia Manual of Style, the first sentence of an article should always be the topic sentence, providing a brief summary of the topic. While my version does not quite meet this standard, yet it makes the effort to do so. In your version, all this opening sentence does is toss a confusing collection of names at the reader, which only makes the point that this dynasty is just another piece of a larger period. It fails to explain how that piece is different from every other piece in that period. -- llywrch 23:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
- You have reverted my edits on this article without even bothering to respond to my concerns I set forth above. I am disappointed, ignoring attempts to discuss edits on Wikipedia is not contructive behavior. I'm at a loss at how to continue to assume good faith towards your contributions. Any suggestions? -- llywrch 23:15, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
