Talk:Henri Mouhot

message: I just saw that 146.115.115.243 messed up the page so badly it was FUBAR, and also changed "Ongcor" into "Angkor Watt" -- thereby modifying what was supposed to be a direct quote from Henri Mouhot's own writings, and mixing up Angkor from Angkor Watt - 2 very different things! == BAD MOVE!! == 
Please refrain from modifyng this article if you don't know what you're doing.
--------------------------
Thanks for your added information and correction of the stupid Eurocentric formulation, 212.247.27.124! I've removed this passage, though:
:"While Henri is historically credited with "discovering" Angkor (as Columbus is with "discovering" America), local Cambodians had always known about the existence and location of Ankor -- it was never lost to them." 
It's a good point, but this talk page is the place for it, not the article itself. Bishonen | talk 23:17, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Much of the text of this article is identical to that of a copyrighted non-WP article, and the author thereof has complained that WP has violated his rights. http://www.zakkeith.com/articles,blogs,forums/Henri-Mouhot-Angkor.htm I am being polite but this approach is a blatant violation of WP standards.
I also find it curious that this article states, without citation, that "Father Bouillevaux published his accounts in 1857: "Travel in Indochina 1848–1846, The Annam and Cambodia"  Rather unique in the history of publishing that the first-menitoned year is later than the second-mentioned.  Given that the book was published in 1857, one might deduce that the second-mentioned year ought be 1856 rather than 1846. Perhaps I am wrong on this but the internet is now so crowded with sites that have lifted the WP text that the seeming error is now ubiquitous on the net. I cannot yet find a reference to this book by any year.
