There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 08:30, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thank you for removing vandalism from Indus Valley Civilisation. We appreciate this, but unfortunately your edit was not successful in restoring the article to its pre-vandalised state. For future reference, it is better to deal with vandalism by checking the article's page history to determine how it appeared before it was vandalised. You can then restore the whole article, or the relevant part of it, to an appropriate earlier version. If you simply delete the visible vandalism then any content removed or overwritten by the vandal is lost. See How to deal with vandalism for details. Thank you. - Sumanuil. _{(talk to me)} 06:16, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It needs a 2nd person to go forward. Not sure if Bish or I will, if you do it will carry on. Up to you. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 12:47, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: I think the discussion has not finished yet at the talkpage; and some problems can also be solved by further editing. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 12:52, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt it will finish unless someone else continues, as it's moved to the DRN. Of course. if that is closed because no one else participates... Doug Weller talk 13:34, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't support it, nor do most historical linguists, but according to the Anatolian hypothesis, the spread of agricultural languages has quite a bit to do with the PIE homeland... AnonMoos (talk) 18:20, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AnonMoos: hm, yes, you're right. Nevertheless, the usual pov-pushing for an Iranian homeland. Bart Ehrman put it nice: "Most people don't want to know what happened, they want to know what to believe." Regards, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 19:47, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, JJ, thanks for weighing in at DRN. About this edit of yours on article talk: you know a ping doesn't work without a new post, on a new line, with a new sig, right? Mind you, it probably doesn't matter in this case. I've already seen it, and I should think the other two are watching the page. Bishonen | tålk 18:42, 8 September 2024 (UTC).[reply]

I'm old-school on WP:INDENT, when I remember to be, any way. Here [2] you change my reply to Dimadick, indented as such, to be indented as a reply to you. I don't like that. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:01, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gråbergs Gråa Sång: okay; I thought it was a typo. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 09:02, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
