Latest change
In this change Gilabrand, (who is still topic-banned from the IP area) with a deceptive edit-line (="move down") not only moves the "archaeology"-section down, but also changes the headline from "Attempts at biblical identification" to "Biblical era". (Hmm, I really should take Gilabrand to AE for this).
I changed the headline back, this was reversed by User:Sir Joseph with edit-line "non reason to use this subject header, keep all headers uniform, as in this is the Biblical age, the next one is iron age, roman age, etc. The section says there is an attempt at identifying Lifta as,,,,,"
SJ: the difference between the other headlines (Iron Age, Roman and Byzantine periods etc) is of course that the evidence of those eras are undisputed. The so-called "Biblical era" is, to be blunt: pure speculation.
Please change it back, Huldra (talk) 22:05, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- Agreed, and changed back. nableezy - 22:12, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- I disagree, you're using a POV header title, which of course is not allowed. The section is the era, and it's the Biblical Era, the section has the information about that section, and it discusses that there is information about if Lifta is the same as other places discussed during the Biblical Era. But the header should be Biblical Era. Obviously, it won't get changed back because this is a numbers game, but you are wrong. Sir Joseph (talk) 22:21, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- You have not addressed the issue, namely that the info in the so-called "Biblical era" is just speculation. You make it sounds as if it undisputed. Huldra (talk) 22:32, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- Huldra, It could be disputed, but the era is the Biblical Era. The information inside the section already says that. The header is supposed to be non-POV. Sir Joseph (talk) 22:40, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- No, it is not the Biblical Era...it is the alleged Biblical Era. There is a difference. You are trying to make it into something undisputed, which it is not. Huldra (talk) 22:46, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- Since the section does not mention that there are those who disagree, this is undisputed. In any case, the word "Attempt" should not be part of the header, even if it were disputed, to keep the header short and simple. Debresser (talk) 22:58, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- "considered by some" != "undisputed"; I thought that was obvious. Well, this has taught me one thing: to take Gila straght to AE whenever she pulls such a stunt, Huldra (talk) 23:41, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
