Tampering with references
[edit]Alexandermcnabb I am shocked. Not only have you tampered with references in the other page that we 2 were involved, with the excuse of "adding notes", you once again removed references from the table, leaving the article with only one reference. This is WP:Vandalism. Leo1pard (talk) 05:47, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
Leo1pard Don't be silly. The pages are all linked from this list, the references came from those pages in the first place and don't add any sense of verifiability or notability. They're unnecessary in the context of this list. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 06:05, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
Alexandermcnabb The reference that you kept does not have all the information in the page, so other references were necessary. Leo1pard (talk) 06:11, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
Leo1pard The sole reference is to the sole unlinked assertion in the article, that UAE human history dates back to 125,000 years ago. This has been seen as contentious in other contexts. All other eras, places etc are linked and perfectly verifiable from the links. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 06:31, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
