Hewsen is not notable, no reliable sources.He is co-founder and president of the Society for the Study of Caucasia. which is not notable. Gazifikator 15:19, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Why such a prominent scholar is not notable? --Grandmaster 04:42, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Because he just isn't. I study Caucasian history extensively and I've never heard his work, research, or name mentioned in any type of article, book, document, etc.

And where is he a leading authority, scholar, or professor of South Caucasian History, as I have mentioned before I have never heard his name in anything, except from an Azerbaijani ultra-nationalist wikipedian vandalist.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.174.192.171 (talk • contribs) 14:22, 22 October 2007

Please do not attack Wikipedians! I have rolled back your changes because they were useful in providing context. Publishing an atlas and having published many academic articles is sufficient for him to be considered an expert. I have removed the word "leading" as that has yet to be established with multiple sources. As your recent contribs indicate you have an agenda, I strongly suggest that you slow down and use the talk before you change articles. John Vandenberg 07:04, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Can Someone Please Verify This Statement

"Of Armenian heritage"

I checked the link which this statement was sourced to but I found nothing to verify it. I did a pretty thorough and comprehensive read-through of the link, but sometimes people miss things(it's human) so if anyone can help out I'd highly appreciate it. Thanks in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.238.146 (talk) 01:19, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

"...This viewpoint on the whole has been shared by the American (of Armenian origin) researcher R.H.Hewsen..."[1]. The question is wheither that source is sufficient and reliable to hold as a prove for that statement. --Vacio (talk) 11:15, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Racism and Discrimination

Why shall we write the family name variant with -ian in bold letter? His Armenian origin or family name Armenian variant is mentioned already. Please, stop this manifestation of discrimination by ethnic origin. I corrected corresponding edits, -- Zara-arush (talk) 18:52, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Robert H. Hewsen/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Gazifikator: If you have studied South Caucasian history and have never heard of Robert H. Hewsen then you are poorly acquainted with Armenian Studies in the West. Hewsen has been publishing and lecturing in Armenian Studies for fifty years. He has taught Armenian History at six major universities in the United States and abroad, and has published nearly 200 articles, most of them in learned journals.He has translated the seventh-century Armenian "Geography" of Anania Shirakatsi into English (Wiesbaden, 1992) as well as publishing another major work "Armenia a Historical Atlas" (University of Chicago Press, 2001,341 pages, 277 color maps), which not only surpasses any such atlas previously published in Armenian Studies but also surpasses any historical atlas published in any of the former Soviet republics. This atlas has recently been reprinted and is still in print after seven years.
