message: HI Aldux, Kubigula, once again, please present the counter-views presented by  Bosworth, Hammond, Lane Fox to neutralize the views of Dr W. W. Tarn and other scholars, so that the Wikipedia readers may know of the alternative views on Cleophis. Until then, I am going to remove the partiality tag.

thread_title: kamboj image

message: This article has been heavily edited by a known POV-pusher of pseudo-history who is fond of piling on citations in order to distract people from their synthesis and other forms of original research. It is par for the course that some of the sources do not even exist. A big clean-up, in particular of any statement concerning the Kamboj/Kamboja, will be needed. - Sitush (talk) 17:36, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that a significant clean-up is needed.  The article is hard to follow and reads like some kind of thesis paper.--Mojo Hand (talk) 21:02, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sourcing 

message: I rewrote the lead because it failed to tell us when Cleophis lived or why she is of interest except that her son was a war leader- since most war leaders have mothers and they don't all get their own pages, something more is needed. Also the bulk of the lead consisted of explaining who her people were and where they lived and, like almost all of this page, was pretty much cut-pasted from  http://everything.explained.today/Cleophis/ so I cut most of the background information and tried to write a lead that tells us who she is and why we are reading about her. Hope this meets with approval. SereneRain (talk) 03:03, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Alexander's War With the Assacani 

message: I'm pretty much deleting the whole article because it reads like an anti-Alexandrian attack add, almost all of it is given to a detailed rebuttal of the rumor that Cleophis and Alexander had a child, and it is mostly copy-pasted from http://everything.explained.today/Cleophis/. I'm replacing it with a succinct description of who Cleophis was, what she did and what some later writers said she did. 
I'm aware that I'm putting my foot in it by erasing a whole article like this- I've never done anything like it before. If what I did is inappropriate in any way I understand and will treat it as a learning experience. SereneRain (talk) 03:35, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
