Incomplete

[edit]

Hi! I want to help complete the article and have started here: User:Wikirictor/sandbox2 If somebody likes to contribute, please do so. I also tried to maintain a neutral style. I created an infobox with, what i think are the subject's crucial episodes, all of whom need to be in here.Wikirictor (talk) 12:53, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Wikirictor: Thanks for your edits, but the article has templates {{EngvarB}} (which means the article uses British spelling) and {{Use dmy dates}} (which means dates must use formats like "4 February 2017"), but you added text which uses American spelling and mdy dates ("February 4, 2017"). Per WP:ENGVAR, articles must use consistent English variation and date formatting, but otherwise your edits are very useful. I have edited to make it consistent.

@Hanif Al Husaini: Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for your great help. Keep it up, please. All the best Wikirictor 15:05, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Islam in Southeast Asia section

[edit]

I would be grateful for some help. I am still not certain how serious and valuable many of the sources are. The existing text needs to be reduced to the essential facts. There is nothing on Islam in the Philippines yet. All the best Wikirictor 08:05, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Use of post-classical

[edit]

The term "post-classical" is controversial not mainstream. It's a recent invention by American professors authoring K-12 textbooks for publishers selling books to the public school system with mandates to be politically correct (equal) on issues of ethnicity. I challenge anyone here to find mainstream history sources that use this term for Southeast Asian history, who are not themselves World History practitioners. The article post-classical history is mostly the effort of a single Wikipedia editor using a lot of these world history textbooks. Wikipedia shouldn't be shoehorned into a minority POV as if it were mainstream. What do the world's best experts on this topic call it? I don't mean American K-12 textbook authors, or "Atlas" publishers, or certain California professors, but the experts on Asia at Harvard, Princeton, Oxford, etc.. -- GreenC 16:14, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
