[edit] Let's be careful out there

Clovis, good buddy, let's not completely wipe out entire sections of Olmec Alternative Origin Speculations without discussion -- indeed without even edit notes. In particular, it appears to me that you are trashing the Olmecs as African school. We need to be respectful. Madman (talk) 03:10, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] America's Stonehenge

Ah, here's someone to take up the cudgel against the New Age crowd! Let's see what the reaction is ... - DavidWBrooks (talk) 22:30, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Turkey Molehill

He there. Would you mind having a look at my latest edit of the Turkey Mountain article and tell me what you think about it? Trigaranus (talk) 04:28, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Cheers. Couldn't resist, childish SoB that I am: I had to create a userbox as a tribute. This hopefully doesn't reveal any bias on my part. Trigaranus (talk) 23:54, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Citing opinions

Hi. I noticed you've twice removed a neutrality disputed tag from Pyramids of Guimar. I notice you're a relative novice here, so a friendly piece of advice - if you disagree with a cleanup tag, this isn't the best way to deal with it, as it'll just be put back - experienced editors only tend to add cleanup tags if they are actually needed. In this case, the issue is that there is an opinion "that Heyerdahl is controversial" which is not backed up with any evidence, so in order for the word controversial to remain, there needs to be some evidence that he is controversial (note that it's only a "neutrality disputed" tag, nothing more, so don't assume that anyone disagrees with it just because of tagging - it just needs sourcing). Hope that helps. I'll hold off from re-inserting it - if you're not able to find a source let me know and I'll add it back in, to flag the problem up to other editors in the hope that others can help. All the best SP-KP (talk) 09:29, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I can't believe this. Someone thinks maybe Heyerdahl is not controversial? How can that be?Doug Weller (talk) 21:56, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Megaliths

Need some advice on dealing with editor with ownership problems who insists that there is a European megalithic culture, won't provide references etc -- see Talk:Megaliths thanks--Doug Weller (talk) 18:39, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Newark Decalogue Stone /Newark Holy Stones

Hi -- these seem obvious candidates for merger, but I'm not sure how to go about it and what to call the merged article. Any suggestions? ThanksDoug Weller (talk) 16:28, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Agree with you on Bernadine Dohrn

"armed resistance" is at least as POV as "terrorism". Thanks for thinking of "violent action", which is neutral and to the point.[1] - Wikidemo (talk) 20:45, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Walam Olum

What did you revert my changes on the Walam olum? Marburg72 (talk) 20:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
