I would like to make a correction about Armenia being culturally European. It is both geographically and culturally West Asian but geopolitically European. Almost every part of our Hayastani culture is similar if not the same as our West Asian Neighbors, Turkey, Iran and Azerbaijan. All differences of religion being put aside.

Prehistory

Revision as of 15:29, 26 March 2024 I don’t understand how the participant’s actions are justified Archives908. Trying to add to the Pregistory part, every time my edits are deleted by the participant Archives908. Yes, perhaps they are not very well written mentally, but this does not add the right to remove all the edits. Armen888 (talk) 15:54, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

here it is absolutely unclear why the edit was removed, I agree there are errors in the formulation of thoughts, but otherwise there are no errors 46.71.61.249 (talk) 16:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
"Not very well written mentally"....that is precisely why your edits are being reverted. You are copy and pasting information from the Armenia article on Armenian Wikipedia. It does not translate well. There are plenty of grammatical, phrasing, sentence structure, and punctuation concerns that fully warranted a reversal of your edits. Surely, it isn't my responsibility to fix everything. I've already recommended that you 1) slow down, 2) try editing on your sandbox, 3) put forth your suggestions here for review/feedback from more experienced editors, and 4) above all, proofread before publishing! 16:19, 26 March 2024 (UTC) Archives908 (talk) 16:19, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
A further idea is to consider expanding Prehistoric Armenia instead. The section and detail in that part of this article already seems too long, while Prehistoric Armenia is not far past its stub stage. Efforts that try and expand Prehistory at this very high level page are misdirected. CMD (talk) 16:31, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
yes you are right but 1) I don’t know who to contact for help about this article 2) I want to extend the information in the Prehistoric section and if you don’t mind I’ll add at least a few sentences to this part and 3) I’m not just copying and pasting, in my first edit was errors with links which I successfully corrected Armen888 (talk) 17:06, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
for example, it is written that people entered the territory of Armenia 1 million years ago, although studies say that the people arrived 2 million years ago Armen888 (talk) 17:08, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
and the photos that I change simply give a better overview of the area Armen888 (talk) 17:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
my edits have already been made in the draft, all that remains is to add them to the page, but I can shorten these sentences, because in articles from other countries in this section sometimes more is written in my edit Armen888 (talk) 17:11, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I made an edit that is significantly smaller than my draft, I hope it turned out okay this time Armen888 (talk) 17:55, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Your additions are not gramatically correct.
"Kura–Araxes culture major site is a Shengavit Settlement" - does not make sense.
"The Iron Age in Armenia begins in the 2nd millennium BC. Armenian Highlands rich in iron reserves(Syunik, Mush, Hınıs, etc.) became the main supplier of raw materials and took a dominant position in Middle Asia." - odd tense used, spacing issues.
"The first sub-phase of the Old Stone Age of the primitive society"- this isn't very clear.
This is the third time I have asked you to please put forth your suggestions on this talk page under a new subheading for feedback BEFORE you continue adding material. This way, it can be peer reviewed before publishing. Do you understand? Archives908 (talk) 18:05, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I understand what you are saying, I'm just trying to fill it in at least so that the image of Shengavit is separate from the shoe from the areni cave!, and humans get in to territory of Armenia 2 million years ago not 1 million Armen888 (talk) 18:23, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Remove that Armenia is a developing country. It is a real country and has been thousands of years. It is the oldest country. 67.150.0.75 (talk) 07:08, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

 Not done: "Developing" does not mean the country doesn't exist. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 07:14, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
"Developing" describes the state of a country's economy and industry. See Developing country. Largoplazo (talk) 09:53, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Article linked to name "Palestine"

edit

Surely, in Josephus' quote (at the very end of the "Etymology" chapter), even if the name "Palestine" is really used in the original, it should be linked to the article about the historical/geographical region, not to the one about the current political entity? 151.237.126.24 (talk) 10:20, 24 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, that link was quite an anachronism. I've replaced its target with Palestine (region). Largoplazo (talk) 12:21, 24 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
