The article Alexander the Great New Research: Are His Mummified Remains in Gortynia-Arkadia, Greece? has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

original research

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Bk314159 (Talk to me and find out what I've done) 18:30, 11 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Alexander the Great New Research: Are His Mummified Remains in Gortynia-Arkadia, Greece?, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Top Jim (talk) 18:39, 11 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Alexander the Great. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the three-revert rule states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains consensus among editors. If unsuccessful then do not edit war even if you believe you are right. Post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Fate after death

edit

Hi. Per your questions on my talkpage:

Why was there a revision on Alexander the Great under "fate after his death" section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dioseus86xm (talkcontribs) 20:54, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

and

== Alexander the Great == Why were the sections contributed by me with proper citations deleted? All information is verified.(Dioseus86xm (talk) 21:17, 11 October 2010 (UTC))

The section exists to accommodate well established historical facts. It is not meant to showcase speculation and unproven research. I addition to being unproven the quantity of information you are proposing to add to that article overpowers the section, thus it cannot be accommodated there. If you still insist on adding it you must engage in discussion on the article talkpage and try to gain consensus there, not on my talkpage. I have nothing more to add.
