Using Wikipedia to solicit

Latest comment: 13 years ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Wikipedia is not the place to solicit a legend/fictitious place was found, or a springboard for rumors Jim (talk) 09:22, 18 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Since 24 July 2011 (one month previous to this comment) someone has repeatedly attempted to add to this article unsourced material concerning a supposed rediscovery of Tayopa. Unfortunately, no verifiable source per WP:SOURCES has been cited, leading editors to repeatedly delete the material. If a verifiable source could be cited, an apparent rediscovery would make a valuable addition to the article, but without a citation, it does not belong here, and will be deleted.

May I ask just what do you need? You have 'access' to multiple pictures, maps, the entire history of it's search, and final discovery. Official documents from the Mexican government, the history of it's clandestine transport of precious metals from Tayopa to a bay just below Matamoros for transshipment to Rome via small mission way stations, and later it's involvement in the proposed Jesuit take over of North America with the collaboration of the Dutch, the actual reason for the Jesuit expulsion in 1767, not for evading taxes as is popularly proposed.

I might add that Maxmillan, along with the Belgium King, through Carlotta his daughter, was also involved during the period when the French ruled Mexico. A rail road line was projected from Guaymas to the Tayopa zone to move the metal, even though they hadn't actually found it yet. However there is little doubt that they would have found it, if the Mexican revolution hadn't occurred.

Tayopa has been well researched and found.

What else do you need? I am curious. my basic purpose is to advise potential seekers for Tayopa, that it has been found, and not to go to unnecessary expenses preparing to look for it. There are many other very attractive lost mines.

I am not looking for 'investors'. I have no need for them or any other capital, I have quite enough myself.

Mr. Curry... please stop trying to use Wikipedia to solicit your great "find". Wikipedia is not a message board, you have to actually support the data supplied in the article with reliable references and sources. Supplying links to a treasure hunting message board is NOT a reliable reference. Have your amazing finds published in a scholarly journal, or some other believable publication.

Tayopa ???????

Frankly Jim I am a bit mystified, You quote Dobie as a reliable source, yet his articles are replete with 'err ah', shall we say literary license, He 'never' was at Tayopa, but 'was' within 35 miles, yet, when I post data & photographs, which ARE easily verifiable, regardless of where they may presently be found, documents by the Mexican gov't,etc., etc., you not only do not check it, but you insinuate that I may be -- prevaricating??

Frankly, I do not need wiki for the reasons you seem to suggest, but to pass on the information for those that might be getting ready to got to the expense and trouble to go look for it. Also that region today is extremly dangerous, due to the activities of both the Sinaloa and Zeta drug Cartels. I suggest that you check on them and their present activities.

Side thingie, I also own la Escondida mine, considered as one of the richest Au, AG mines in Sonora, Mexico, so I am not promoting in any sense.

My reputation for my, as you said -- amazing - great -- find, is already established. For this, and for and other explorations in the Gobi, China, the Pacific basin, and a 'successful' 6 mo. exploration in the Yucatan looking for Mayan ruins, was the basis for my being duly 'Elected' into the Elite Explorers club, a very unique honor which must be earned.

Please see WP:SOURCES. These are the rules. If you can't follow, or consider yourself above, these rules of Wikipedia, there is nothing more to say. Plazak (talk) 18:05, 3 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
