Currently, the Wikipedia article of Muay Thai has a banner on top which says: “This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced materials may be challenged or removed. (may 2013).” This banner was made almost two years ago and yet this Wikipedia article of Muay Thai has not been edited regarding the citations. For example, under the topic of History, some of the information posted in their is cited but, most of the information under the subtopic of 19th century is not cited and also under the subtopic of Modernization as well as the subtopic of Folklore. Which leads me to believe that most of the information under History is irrelevant or it just needs citation to verify the information posted under that topic. For my revision, I plan on to add verifiable sources to back up the information that are relevant to the topic. Also to research more on the modernization of Muay Thai and update the folklore and update more on the modernization of Muay Thai.
