Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)
| Since I clarified that the original discussion was not an RfC and was also getting off-topic (sorry, Gurkubondinn), here we are. The discussion yielded an unclear result, so I figured I would just move ahead with a clearer RfC. Hopefully consensus will be clearer. Courtesy-tagging original discussion participants: @Gnomingstuff @SuperPianoMan9167 @Katzrockso @NicheSports @LWG @Fermiboson @Thryduulf @InfernoHues @Chipmunkdavis Should WP:NOLLM be updated to explicitly permit or explicitly prohibit the use of AI/LLMs to create/format Wikitext (hereafter referred to as "WT")? Option 1 — No change to NOLLM. Option 2 - Add some form of explicit exception to PERMIT the use of AI to format WT, with the caveat that the user is responsible for ensuring it is non-disruptive and publishes without error. Option 3 — Add some form of explicit prohibition to PREVENT the use of AI to format WT.This RfC also invites discussion as to the wording of an exception or prohibition — MWFwiki (talk) 22:12, 19 September 2026 (UTC) |

But it appears that most ancient Greek geographers did not include the core territories of the kingdom of Macedonia in their descriptions of Greece. They usually drew the borderline of Hellas in the strict sense from the Ambracian Gulf to Mount Olympus and the Thessalian Tempe Valley.

Phileas, a geographer who lived in the sixth-fifth century BC, identifies the northern frontier of Hellas with the Peneius, a river that springs from the Pindus Mountains and flows south from Olympus through the Tempe valley, and with the Homolium, one of the mountains south of the Tempe valley. Since Olympus formed the most southern part of Macedonia, the Macedonians did not inhabit Hellas, which can only be explained by the fact that they were not considered Hellenes:... Herodotus, too, situates Macedonia outside Hellas since he calls the valley of the Peneius Hellas' northern entrance way:....
