There are some very specific accusations against Hansen in this article that seem to come pretty close to being libelous without any sort of attribution. Big Egyptian Mummy (talk) 05:29, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The way the page is currently written is very bias , specifically where it states his opposition is false in their claims. Please review and update from a neutral perspective. 2600:387:B:9A2:0:0:0:51 (talk) 02:59, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Came here to say just this. It's extremely irresponsible such a biased article lacking in sources is allowed to stay up, plus the formatting is extremely bad. The sources that do exist make no sense, such as the claim he "had the support of entire communities" leading to an article about an american movie, and the maybe libelous claim that the communities and Guatemalan archeologists interviewed by NACLA are grifters.

I have commented out the "Debated Issues" section for now, because I agree it was not sourced properly and not written neutrally, and is not a heading as it stands that should be in a WP:BLP. It now requires discussion here as to what actually should be in the articlele about those topics. Melcous (talk) 21:49, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
