NPOV issue on Yuya

Look, I agree with you 100% that Yuya is Joseph, I even got a vision of a gold and blue sarchophagus then a balding man looking up in an Egyptian city, the next day I bought Osman's book, looked inside and found the same man as Yuya. I wasn't expecting that, I thought it was some sort of spirit guide. I know they are one and the same. But you have to abide by WP:NPOV like I am. We have to show both sides without picking either. If you want to help, find citable evidence from a reputable souce. Books would be preferrable, but you can also try some reputable websites like the Associated Press or CNN or I would imagine even New Scientist.

Abraham

The masoretic age of worls is 5766 years, corresponding to 2006-5766 = 3760 BCE. 1948 years after creation is 3760 - 1948 or 1812 BCE. -- Avi 01:20, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Warnings

2006

June

On 01-June, you blanked John Kiftmeyer. Blanking pages is generally considered a bad idea. I've restored the redirect, but changed the target to Al Sobrante (John Kiffmeyer). If this was the result of a broken edit, you may wish to make the correct edits. If you believe the redirect should be deleted, please follow the redirect portion of the deletion procedures. If you believe an article should be written instead of the redirect, please write a stub. If you have questions, please let me know. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 23:17, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

What the crap!?

I've never heard of you, I don't know what you're talking about, I never edit anonymously, and I am NOT that IP adress. Now, listen closly, you don't go onto someone else's page and go yelling at them like that without ascertaining their identity. So go find out who your problem really is and bother him! Hrmph! Thanatosimii 00:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Upon inspecting both your logs to see where you're bickering, the revisions that he's been making he should be making regardless. Ohman stuff doesn't belong in the intro of these articles, since it's really quite a bad thesis from a linguistic point of view. It's a good faith cut and he hasn't broken 3rr. You could stand to read Wikipedia:Vandalism#What_vandalism_is_not and Wikipedia:Civility. Thanatosimii 01:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Whatever, if you say so, still sorry for the bothering.mikey 01:27, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, no harm done. Cheers! Thanatosimii 02:36, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Yuya and Tuya.

Tuya was arguably an egyptian, but legitimate arguements have been made that she was of the same stock as her husband. Yuya himself was almost certainly a mitannian. I am aware of your affinity for the notion that he was Joseph, but a mitannian origin, given the fact that he was commander of horses, and given the diplomatic ties with mitanni at this time, is almost certantly the case, at least so speak all the egyptologists. Thanatosimii 22:37, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I didn't even know that they thought Tuya may have been Mitannian (haha).mikey 22:42, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Tuya's identification is one that my professor once taught about. I would assume that it's generally on the basis that if there were a mitannian who were hired by Egypt, he would have had to become skilled before egypt would hire him, in which time he would have married his own wife. But, I'm exactly sure. And this kind of stuff isn't on the internet, it's in academic journals, which are very hard to get one's hands on. Thanatosimii 17:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh, okay, thanks anyway.mikey 21:28, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Meryl Getline

I have turned your article on Meryl Getline into a serious article. I'm not 100% certain that Getline needs a Wikipedia article, but she certainly doesn't need an article containing unreferenced nonsense or libel - I think the article you created was vandalism, and if you continue to add such articles to Wikipedia, an admin will block your account. --Brianyoumans 04:54, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

• If you can find some good references on there being a lot of Meryl Getline dirty jokes around... well, that might be worthy of a mention in the article. But without anything else in the article... Also, I also found the Ellen Church article and rewrote it. "Whore of Babylon"? Huh? I don't find that very amusing. --Brianyoumans 05:11, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
• OK, now that you found a reference for the "whore of babylon"... I find it amusing. I rewrote that bit and put it under "trivia". I think 'some Christians' is a bit broad - I don't think theomatics is that popular, it is (my apologies if you practice it) a fringe sort of thing. If you don't like what I did, we can talk it over on the article's talk page. --Brianyoumans 18:56, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Lamechs

I started a discussion of your suggested split at the Lamech page. Please contribute.--Cúchullain ^t/c 03:16, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Osman stuff...

I understand your desire to make sure osman is fairly covered. I know we have different opinions of what "fair" is, however I can respect your desire for accuracy. I see you are aware of the recent removal of his content from most of the pages where it was put, however I would encourage you to take this to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ancient Egypt#Ahmed Osman instead of letting it escalate into an edit war. Don't worry, your edits are preserved in the history; they're not going anywhere. I just think it's better to talk this out. I've already invited the other user to the talk page to state his case and asked him to refrain from similar edits until a discussion has run it's course. Thanks. Thanatosimii 23:17, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Please see WP:NPOV#Undue weight. Also, take a look at WP:NPA: I'd like to discourage you from making personal offenses (as you have done a number of times, e.g. [1] [2]). Thanks. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 20:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

As you can see, there are quite a few people who oppose your views on Ahmed Osman. However, Wikipedia is not a democracy and it's possible that you're right, while other people, myself including, are wrong. The only way you change the minds of other people is by presenting your arguments, which you can do at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ancient Egypt#Ahmed Osman and at articles' talk pages. Beit Or 20:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, reverting other editors edits without discussing the matter (as well as describing their edits as "vandalism") only weakens your persuasiveness. If one of these editors complains that you are being disruptive, it will be hard to show from your edits over the last few days that you are contributing to Wikipedia in good faith. Please reconsider how you are handling this disagreement. -- llywrch 16:29, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

The flood and the ark

Hi, you've got a very positive and inspiring set of self-identifiers.

Noah's flood and ark should be removed from the psuedoscience list. Two Columbia University researchers uncovered evidence suggesting that there was such a flood and ark: (See Black Sea deluge theory.) See William Ryan and Walter Pitman's book, "Noah's Flood: The New Scientific Discoveries About The Event That Changed History," and review at http://www.amazon.com/Noahs-Flood-Scientific-Discoveries-Changed/dp/0684859203/sr=8-1/qid=1164760367/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-8813230-2373756?ie=UTF8&s=books Dogru144 00:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
