Hi, I was interested by your point that "Not that long ago, brooch and ceramic typology was considered proof positive of ethnic distinctness and the settlements in Britain were linked to specific Continental geographical origins on this basis alone. Ancient DNA has definitively shown that some of the people buried with early Anglo-Saxon grave goods were of local British origins, making brooch and ceramic typology redundant as an indicator of ethnicity." at the AS settlement talk. Do you have a good ref for that? I'd like to add re the brooches to the "metalwork" section of Anglo-Saxon art. From a generous preview of Martin, Toby F., The Cruciform Brooch and Anglo-Saxon England, 2015, Boydell & Brewer Ltd, 2015, ISBN 1843839938, 9781843839934, google books, he rejects simplistic older views, but seems by no means ready to completely let go of an "Anglian" identity being part of the broochs' meaning. Is this book well thought-of, do you know? Thanks, Johnbod (talk) 22:52, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-05-05T22:52:00.000Z","author":"Johnbod","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Johnbod-2020-05-05T22:52:00.000Z-A-S_brooches_etc","replies":["c-Urselius-2020-05-06T09:59:00.000Z-Johnbod-2020-05-05T22:52:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Johnbod:Hi, I haven't seen the Martin book, but I think brooch typology is still relevant to cultural identity and cultural contacts. I don't have any particular sources for brooch typology being invalidated by ancient DNA work, but I think Schiffels, S. et al. (2016) makes the general point that material culture (grave goods) and genetics are unrelated in early Anglo-Saxon burials. I made the point about brooches because it has always struck me that the claims made for 'different minor variations in brooch form being used to trace back populations in Britain to very specific Continental populations' seemed specious in the light of other evidence - even before ancient DNA technology. The adventus was not a tribal incursion like those of the Burgundians, Vandals etc., it was much more of a 'private enterprise' of separate warbands, which sometimes co-operated with each other. That each warband and their associated peasants in areas that were later Anglian came originally from Angeln I think highly unlikely.

I noticed you reverted my entire edit on Lampião with the edit summary: Written in British English as per talk page. While I appreciate you for improving the page, the only thing I noticed I did wrong was changing neighbours to neighbors. Not sure if you noticed that I also corrected the incorrect parameter |Cause of death= used on the infobox (as it's showing in Category:Pages using infobox person with unknown parameters), removed overlinks on countries, and fixed the dashes. IAre those part of the "British English" as well? Cause if not I would like to restore those correct edits, please?

@Ulpionz:I am not the best person to ask. It depends on the age of the painting and copyright law in different jurisdictions, particularly the USA. If the painting is over 100 years old there would be little problem. Less than that, then there will probably be some copyright on the image. Being on public display, or in a publication, does not entitle use on Wikimedia. I would recommend asking for advice on Wikimedia itself, rather than Wikipedia, and look at the copyright disclaimers used on similar images on Wikimedia.

Hi, I altered the spelling of focussed in Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain as the article already had three instances of focused. I have checked online to see which is more common in the U.K. and it seems to be focused, which is listed first by Oxford, Cambridge and Collins dictionaries.

Wiktionary says: "The spellings focusses, focussing, focussed are more common in Commonwealth English than in American English, but in both varieties they are less common than the spellings focuses, focusing, focused", which suggests that focused is preferred in British English.

I still prefer focused, but as both are acceptable, could you amend either focus or focussed so the spelling is consistent?

Then say that that particular source says so. The use of the word decisive in a Wikipedia infobox is quite controversial and is only really used when there are no further major armed clashes in a war. 'Decisive' does not mean the same as 'a major victory' or a 'very one-sided battle', it means that it decided the outcome of a war. Doryleum stopped the German Crusaders from overrunning the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum, or taking Konya, but that was not the major aim of the Crusaders, their major aim was to get to Syria to bolster the Crusader States after the loss of Edessa. Doryleum did not stop the Crusaders from getting to Syria, it was not decisive in the way this word is used in Wikipedia. You could say somewhere in the article, not in that part of the infobox that gives the result, that "Doryleum was decisive in preserving the Sultanate of Rum". That would be fine.

A very small part of the Germans were able to reach Damascus, very few of the Damascus besiegers were German. This battle has already had quite an impact on the outcome. Also, can you change the Analysis of the fate of named participants suggest a casualty rate of 63% at most to See the Aftermath and estimation of crusader losses section. Because I have read about this battle from many sources, and they all say that the loss of the Germans is 18,000.

Please sign your comments. If there were no doubts about the casualty figures then Phillips, in 'Phillips, J. (2008) The Second Crusade: Extending the Frontiers of Christendom, Yale University Press', would not have gone to the trouble of trying to estimate casualties from contemporary records of named German Crusaders. Finding these records was not a trivial piece of historical research. Professional historians do not undertake such arduous work, if they do not have to. Nicolle does not mention any casualty figures at all. This is conclusive evidence that the figure you espouse is not considered to be accurate or definitive by a number of scholars who have written books specifically about the Second Crusade. Whatever your or my opinion is about this is totally irrelevant, because Wikipedia always has to reflect the available scholarship. If the scholarship is divided on any point, then both opinions have to be given equal weight in a Wkipedia article. This is non-negotiable. It is you who is trying to present a one-sided view, and it is I trying my hardest, against a storm of undeserved invective and lack of good faith, to reflect the balance of relevant scholarship. This can be taken to various forms of Wikipedia arbitration, if you wish.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can 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 you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. And please, instead of ignoring the regular "bold, revert, discuss" process, take part in the discussion at WT:MILHIST.

I have reverted for the moment, but the editor in question is persistent. He uses tentative or hedged statements in the literature and exaggerates them for his own agenda. However the Haak paper, in Nature, which started this whole genetics of the Yamnaya does state that they had a majority of dark eye alleles and had skin that was lighter than the majority of WHG, but darker than that of most modern Europeans.

Hello, you reverted my edit on the Turkish general "Monolugh". The Alexiad records "μονόλυκος" as a Turkish general, which literally transliterates to "Monolykos". I do not see a good reason to transliterate the Greek μονόλυκος to Manalugh, as it has no meaning in this form and doesn't stick to the original text. The Greek word may be a calque from an old totemic Turkish name, a bastardization of a Turkic name that sounded similar to "Monolykos", or a title for Gumushtegin, the son of Shahanshah Danishmend. To add to the latter theory, the title is perhaps the same demonizing title Demosthenes applied to Alexander centuries before, not unthinkable in the atticizing texts of Anna Komnene. ~ Gibby01 (talk) 20:22, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230118202200","author":"Gibby01","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Gibby01-20230118202200-on_Monolykos","replies":["c-Urselius-20230119103000-Gibby01-20230118202200"]}}-->

@Gibby01: Hi, there is an established history of Byzantine Greek writers Hellenising foreign names, Urselius for Roussel (Roussel de Bailleul) for example. This is known to extend to Turkic names, Prosouch for Borsuq etc. Perhaps Sewter had information supporting Manalugh being the original form of the name? However, all this is irrelevant for Wikipedia purposes, as a published work trumps all opinion expressed by editors. In the translation of the Alexiad, Sewter uses the name 'Manalugh' and, unless there is good quality published matter available that challenges his usage, it has to stand. If this were the Greek language Wikipedia it would be, arguably, a different matter. I have just checked, and The Cambridge Medieval History uses the name 'Manalugh'; that is a fairly definitive sanction for it.

(Apologies, on the first line I meant to write "Manalugh" instead of "Monolugh" of course.)

There is indeed a tradition of Hellenizing Turkic names, but I haven't found any evidence that this is the case with Monolykos. I haven't been able to get a copy of Sewter's work, but I doubt he explains himself as Kaldellis doesn't either. I am simply suggesting we stick to the source material.

Here's similar paper you can find online that uses a baseless transliteration:

Monoluğ: (99+) Winter in the Land of Rum: Komnenian Defenses Against the Turks in Western Anatolia | Humberto DeLuigi - Academia.edu

Some books and papers use the wrong ending "-es" as in "Monolykes" for the Greek μονόλυκος, causing confusion, in my opinion because of lack of good standardization:

A Chronology of the Byzantine Empire - T. Venning, J. Harris - Google Boeken

The Formation of Turkey: The Seljukid Sultanate of Rum: Eleventh to ... - Claude Cahen - Google Boeken

This paper mentions the possibility of a Greek name or title:

"Kaldellis in his translation calls him 'Manalough.' I stick to the Byzantine version of the name, because I am not sure that 'Manalugh' is correct reconstruction of the Turkic name. See Alexiad, tr. Sewter-Frankopan,"

@Gibby01: Standardising nomenclature and usage is a bit beyond the remit of Wikipedia editors. Sewter is the definitive English translation of the Alexiad, as such he forms a 'secondary source' and secondary sources are greatly preferred in Wikipedia over primary sources - such as the original Greek version. This is because the interpretation of primary sources by editors can lead to distortions, agenda pushing etc. 'Manalugh', and minor spelling deviations from this, is sufficiently supported by secondary sources to remain the preferred usage on Wikipedia. However, if you wish to add the original Greek, its Latin alphabet equivalent and its putative meaning as a footnote to the first occurrence of the name, in any article, that would be fine. It is the replacement that cannot be supported by Wikipedia usage and rules.

I see no evidence of any ad hominem attack.

Hi Urselius - You explained your edit (diff) with: "Autism is not classed as a mental or psychological disorder or illness. It is a neurodevelopmental condition with largely genetic origins, no known psychological factor shown to cause autism."

It actually is classed as a mental illness (disorder, disease), as evidenced by its inclusion in the International Classification of Diseases and the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

However, I am personally fine with "developmental disorder" so I did nothing about your edit. But others might object so I wanted you to know their likely reasoning.

It has been argued that, as autism has a neurological basis, it is thus not a mental disorder in the way psychosis and paranoia are. The former results from atypical neural anatomy, while the latter two are the products of typical neural anatomy behaving in an atypical manner.

"Almost all mental disorders have neurodevelopmental origins, manifesting genetic influences, growth trajectories, and multiple domains of environmental influences that interact with development"

"[RDoC] is intended to provide a structure that places equal weight on behavioral functions and upon neural circuits and their constituent elements - that is, to be an integrative model rather than one based primarily on either behavior or neuroscience."

That is a narrowly neurological viewpoint, many psychiatrists and psychologists would not agree with it. If it were the whole truth, talking therapies would not work in any circumstances and lots of clinicians would be out of a job.

I was actually trying to argue the same point. What I like about Cuthbert's articles is that he tries to help readers understand that the RDoC research agenda includes psychosocial factors, and that we cannot fully understand mental health disorders if we focus exclusively on the neurobiological level of analysis. Our own (Wikipedia's) article on RDoC calls it a "biologically-based" approach, which is misleading. Anyway, it seems you and I are on the same page.
