message: The 'Death and Legacy' section (which is cited) claims a reign of 60 years. The Infobox reign range 1493-1527 (not cited) suggests 34 years. In it's Ecuador section, Brittanica gives the dates of reign 1493-1525. 1493 is when his father died Topa Inca Yupanqui died. The sentence which cites '60 years' also claims that he died at the age of 80; if he was born in 1464/1468 that gives a death year circa 1544/1548. Clearly a couple more -authoritative- sources might be able to resolve the obviously BIG error(s) here somewhere (or the absolute numbers should be removed). Twang (talk) 10:54, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

message: This article needs a bit more help than I can give it. I have *zero* actual subject matter expertise; I simply was trying to make the article more readable. Not everyone is as learned as the people who wrote this in the first place. One phrase (as quoted in the previous Header) is impenetrable. "Atawallpa was to inherit the Kingdom of Quito, by the will of his father Wayna Qhapaq, _and later Inca Emperor after defeating his brother, the Inca Emperor Waskar in the Inca Civil War_, where Waskar Inka attempted to conquer the Kingdom of Quito after 7 years of peace." Who did what to whom, when and why? What does "by the will of" mean in context? There are several other things that made little sense. Chief among them is the lonely, disconnected line, "Wayna knew of the Spanish arrival off the coast of his empire as early as 1515." What the bleep does that mean in context? That he knew and did nothing notable? That he knew and welcomed what turned out to be a deadly threat? That he knew and planned to prevent their ascension? Anyway, please feel free to revert anything that does not reflect a real understanding of the meaning. There was a LOT of guesswork and Goggle searches to try and understand what the original (and excellent) authors wrote. Last1in (talk) 21:21, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
