Talk:Chinese civilization/Archive 17

message: I think in the animated map that shows all the Chinese Dynasties, there needs to be a map that shows the area of control by the ROC from 1911-1945. T-1000 23:39, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: It turns out that Korea wasn't directly incorporated into Yuan Dynasty. It was a tributary state with its own internal administration. So the part of the map showing Yuan Dynasty needs correction. Gantuya eng 10:55, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I think the prehistory is misleading. It states that Humans may have been in china for over 2 million years. Homo-erectus may have been there, but modern humans? Modern Humans (Homo-Sapiens) aren't even 500k years old. Need to restate that line saying evidence of Homo-erectus.Pat-rech78 17:14, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't understand why it is so hard for all of you to just say "some scholars say this, while other scholars say this." Wikipedia is about representing all POVs, not siding with the one you have a higher opinion of or think is more favorable.
Besides, I really want to edit this page. Lol.

thread_title: Does this argument really warrant the entire page to be blocked?

message: On a separate note, I've just changed the caption on the map - more unwieldy but more NPOV. In particular, it:
* makes clear why these two "states" are depicted on the map: because they use the word 'China' in their names;
* clarifies that these are the de facto boundaires: neither side's "legal" boundary corresponds with that depicted.
* adds a key to the colours - some readers might otherwise be confused as to which is the official name of "China" and which is "Taiwan". --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 22:29, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

"In fact, the word Christmas is not used at all and Charles makes mention of creating a "fertility goddess" in the snow, possibly a reference to Frey, the Scandinavian Fertility God and a deity associated with peace and prosperity during winter solstice."
Multiple issues with the use of Frey.  Why make a goddess in reference to a god?  Why a snow goddess?  Is there a link to Frey's association with the winter solstice (the Wikipedia page for it is silent on the matter)?  Why would the proto-scientist suggest this?
