About Giggette

For your information, I've asked for help there.

Questioned

Excuse me, is this map File:Aztecexpansion.png yours?, authorship?, because it says "enwiki/Maunus". --Giggette (talk) 18:02, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is in the public domain. I made it many years ago based on Ross Hassigs book Aztec Warfare. It is not particularly accurate and can certainly do with an improvement. ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 19:39, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So why are you trying to support Giggette's POV, after saying you support my removal? I don't understand. Do you think that Isthmus of Tehuantepec should be included in Aztec empire, and what more reliable source than Berdan & Smith works supports it? El Comandante (talk) 21:45, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am not trying to supprt her POV, but I am suggesting that the map is not so terrible that it is better to have no map at all. A better map is better, but any map will have some degree of distortion of the actual very complex situation.·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 21:50, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

But the problem isn't that there is no more reliable map. The one created by Sémhur, based on Yavidaxiu's map, based on Arqueología Mexicana, is a reliable map (i.e. supported by various reliable sources). El Comandante (talk) 21:57, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please cite the exact page of the map(s) you used from Aztec Warfare? I can't find any global map of the Aztec empire, just maps of Aztec rulers' campaigns' route like this one, without states' boundaries. El Comandante (talk) 13:37, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't one. It is a composite of the different campaign maps. When I made that the standards for sourcing on wikipedia were very different from what they are now. It probably would be considered original research today.·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 13:52, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please comment on Talk:Thought_identification

Re: John Norseen and Lockheed Martin

I'm beside myself trying to update information that I believe to be very relevent. It looks to me like several users who "hang out" at "ANI:Fringe" are working together to remove well sourced, valid, on topic material which shows the state of military research into thought identification. Outside comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Damonthesis (talk) 19:48, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
