message: This article was tagged for "needing copyediting", and so I did just that. However this reverted many of my copy-edits. I have reverted these changes, but unfortunately, many others. I ask we work constructively and incrementally to solve these problems. --Otheus 11:35, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

message: # Evelyn, very good work! I see you are learning quickly!  
# You reinserted the "Chavin" idea in "Geography", but it really belongs in "History" -- a section I created from prior versions. I hope my edit fully incorporates what I removed from "geography". 
# There is no need (and it's probably bad) to make "wikilinks" like this to things that (1) have already been linked to, and (2) are not really related to the topic. For instance, I don't think it's really constructive to have links to "rivers" and "sea"; but it's probably fine to have it to "lagoons" and "glaciers" -- but not every time! :)

thread_title:  Progress 

message: My proofreading was going well until I got to the Geography section. I found the reference to "trough" a bit unclear. When I Googled for more information, I accidentally came upon the same geography material, word-for-word, but at someone else's site, http://www.movicorpsa.com/ancash.php. The site included a copyright protection notice. I'm new to Wikipedia editing but not new to editing in general. The direct copying of material from other sites looks like a big problem to me and one that could only be fixed by more research, attribution, and a complete re-write of the section. Sorry to say this. I hope I am wrong. Finetooth 20:16, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The article states that Ancash is pronounced /ˈaŋkaʃ/. I assume that this is the local, Peruvian Spanish way of pronouncing the name.
However, I am wondering... Peruvian Spanish, as almost all other varieties of Spanish, does not have a /ʃ/ sound, and from my experience with speakers of Spanish, I can say that most of them find it very hard to pronounce a /ʃ/. They tend to use /s/ instead. Does anyone know whether the normal pronunciation really uses the /ʃ/ sound? Yupanqui (talk) 13:14, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
