Hi, please do not add speculative categories to articles as you have repeatedly done in Xiongnu. There is no evidence that they were of "turkic origin". There is just one speculative theory (among several competing ones) that they might theoretically have spoken a pre-turkic language. "Pre-turkic" (not actual "turkic") because the real origin of the turkic family of languages, the Gökturks, only came into existence quite some time later. --Latebird (talk) 08:26, 1 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-01T08:26:00.000Z","author":"Latebird","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Latebird-2010-09-01T08:26:00.000Z-Xiongnu","replies":["c-Philg88-2010-09-01T09:01:00.000Z-Latebird-2010-09-01T08:26:00.000Z"]}}-->
If you had checked your facts you would find that I have not added any categories to this article. All I did by reverting your edit(s) (for which you do not have a concensus), was in line with the WP policy of not deleting information without justification. I'm afraid that until you have a concensus otherwise the category remains.

Actually, the requirement is the other way round. If you want contested information to remain in an article, then it is up to you to show that it belongs there (eg. by citing reliable sources). The category in question contradicts the sourced text content of the article, so there is a very good reason to remove it. In such a situation I don't need an artificial "consensus", but I can just follow WP:V. If you want to add it again, please first discuss your reasons on the talk page.

On 2 September 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Battle of Graveney Marsh, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Why do I use English and not Chinese? As I have told you politely several times, this is the English version of Wikipedia and that is the mother tongue of the majority of users. Please read the relevant policies on concensus amongst editors - you cannot undertake carte blanche changes without agreement between a number of editors, especially when they would have an impact on hundreds of articles and the integrity of Wikipedia as a whole. You copying the template that I placed on your talk page to mine is to say the least disingenuous. Sorry, but these are the rules.

As I suspected, he suggests using a fresh sandbox for articles to be moved into the mainspace. (Also, it is fine to use an old one, provided that the last thing that it was used for was an article that got moved. Moving to mainspace clears the history.)
I often use sandboxes for storage. If I do make an article in one, I usually cut and paste. That's why it was fully of old history.

Hi Philg88, this is Zar2gar1. Thanks for helping out while I've been editing the Shang dynasty page. I've started working on reorganizing the talk page, and I'm about to start overhauling the sections. Most of the comments will fit cleanly in one of the sections, but I will probably have to divide up some of my comments (the ones with lists). I know that maintaining context is important so I was going to make a note that my divided comments were originally one post. One of your replies addresses two separate topics that I brought up in one comment, and I thought I should ask how you would want that comment handled before I change the page.

You are welcome :) I assume that the comments you refer to are those in the Early & Late Shang section:
As for the capitals, Chinese WP just says that Pangu moved the capital to 殷 and that its other locations are not known. I wonder what the original source of the data here was?. A reflection of the relationship between Xia, Shang and Zhou would be useful as this is a commonly referenced in Chinese with 夏商周 so maybe change the section heading.
I've copied the first comment to a section that is more relevant to the topic which I think solves the problem.

I do not have time to waste listening to your "demands" and I do not "need" to do anything. If you wish to remove a perfectly valid cross cultural comparison that is referenced then carry on.

It has nothing to do with the validity of cross cultural comparisons. It has everything to do with original research and laziness. There are all sorts of similarities that exist in the world, and all sorts of similarities that some editor is going to think is interesting. If we applied the standard you proposed every article could overflow with comparisons someone thinks is interesting. That is why reasonable sources are required and items without sources deemed original research.
I honestly don't understand how you can think a reference is so important, but not important enough to take some time out of your busy schedule to do some due diligence.

I went through the history and found that the editor who first inserted the paragraph referencing the alleged Hindu parallels, in September 2005, is a now-inactive IP user, so there’s not likely any help to be had from that quarter. However, some Web searching (after digging through a zillion hits that were just copies of the article in question!) turned up some evidence that the Odysseus : Penelope :: Nala : Damayanti notion is not without scholarly backing, in Splitting the difference: gender and myth in ancient Greece and India by Wendy Doniger, ISBN-13 978-0226156415, browsable at amazon.com, pp.157ff in particular. That ought to cover the first sentence; I’ll see what I can find on the trial-by-bow business.

For Rama & Odysseus: in Harry Fokkens et al., “Bracers or bracelets? About the functionality and meaning of Bell Beaker wrist-guards”, Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society 74, 2008, University of Leiden, p.122.
“Odysseus himself was the only one who was able to strain his bow … he beat his competitors and regained his wife after his long absence due to the Trojan War. We can discover the same theme … for example in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata ….
“In these epics the bow is a recurrent motif, often intertwined with human values such as bravery, strength, and accuracy. Sometimes the central figure has a godlike identity. Like Odysseus, the Indian prince Rama proved his strength and skill by being able to lift and strain the bow, which originally belonged to Shiva, and eventually to break it, something none of the gods had been able to do, not even with their powers combined. By passing this test Rama gained the hand of Sita, daughter of king Janaka (Narayan 1972). In addition to the thematic similarity regarding the straining of the bow and (re)gaining a wife … both King Rama and Odysseus received the bow from a ‘special person’, who could be either a dear friend or a mighty god. This theme can also be traced in many other stories that include bows.”
I’m sure more citations could be found; less scholarly references to this parallel (among others between the Odyssey and the Ramayana) are all over the Web.

Howdy. I'd be glad to help, but I don't know what GFC is. All I have here is the Cambridge History of Ancient China which I am slowly feeding in. I don't have any administrative rights or fancy tools. But I will do whatever I can.

Thanks for the quick response :) GFC is a form of control on Internet usage imposed by a certain country in which we both have an interest that prevents image uploads amongst other irritating things. All I need is to be able to email you the images and for you to upload them to commons. You can email me from my user page so that you don't need to give out your email publicly.

Hi. Thank you for adding the information about China, Korea, etc. on this page. Do you by any chance have a source for this? Whether a source is already used on a page or not, you can still add it to another section of the article. If you ahve trouble finding a source, I can help you find one or two that would support the statement. Please let me know.

Not quite sure what you mean. I added the stuff about China to the article and included a source.

Okay, I will check that out later. I am not questioning the information. I just thought the sentence was missing a source at the end. I appreciate the interesting fact added.
