14 January 2024
- 02:0502:05, 14 January 2024 diff hist −67 Kaaba →Architecture and interior: 1. The uncited size of the interior ("13m") exceeds the cited size of the exterior ("12m"). Impossible. Plus the page's own diagram contradicts the text (see https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/ba/Kaaba-plan.svg/1920px-Kaaba-plan.svg.png >. Finally, absent citation, it is not helpful to include this note.
24 November 2023
- 23:2123:21, 24 November 2023 diff hist −503 People's Republic of Kampuchea Added header to more logical break position and removed yet another unfactual statement that is clearly not supported by the cited source. Bad scholarship
23 November 2023
- 23:5623:56, 23 November 2023 diff hist −711 People's Republic of Kampuchea →Civil war: Removed two unfactual paragraphs: neither of the two sources cited sources support the claims. Worse, I note that these paragraphs have been here since 2013. Bad scholarship
22 October 2023
- 23:4723:47, 22 October 2023 diff hist +2,223 Apep Verified and updated all references to Geraldine Pinch's "Handbook of Egyptian Mythology".
15 October 2023
- 23:5123:51, 15 October 2023 diff hist +45 Prometheus Bound →Translations: Added better full text links: previous 1833 version was incomplete and missing page 1; current 1850 version contains useful annotations that explains the connection between the two different versions
28 August 2023
- 23:3723:37, 28 August 2023 diff hist −13 Inert gas asphyxiation →Euthanasia of animals: fixed DOI
- 20:4920:49, 28 August 2023 diff hist −69 Inert gas asphyxiation replaced dead link
28 July 2023
- 02:2502:25, 28 July 2023 diff hist −17 André Gide →Sexuality: re-writing this hugely sensitive topic in more neutral and less inflammatory terms: we should be cautious when re-writing history in today's moral terms, but specifically in this case it appears more of a case of prostitution than victimization
29 May 2023
- 20:2820:28, 29 May 2023 diff hist 0 Vitruvian Man Undid revision 1157612903 by Eux2010 (talk) Restoring this because I clicked on wrong revision radio button. Tags: Undo Reverted
- 20:2420:24, 29 May 2023 diff hist +247 Vitruvian Man Undid revision 1153081602 by Aza24 (talk) A viewable source is always preferable for those who wish to know more, and an original source is better than a secondary one. Tags: Undo Reverted
- 20:0720:07, 29 May 2023 diff hist 0 Vitruvian Man Undid revision 1155397139 by Aza24 (talk) A viewable source is always preferable for those who wish to know more, and an original source is better than a secondary one. Tags: Undo Reverted
14 May 2023
- 00:5300:53, 14 May 2023 diff hist +449 André Gide →Sexuality: Added viewable source for citation, as well as evidence that this section has historically been omitted. (ie, citation mileage may vary).
7 May 2023
- 23:1323:13, 7 May 2023 diff hist +517 Plato Restoring one detail about Plato's life (viz., the fact that Plato -- possibly one of the most famous people in all of history -- was sold into slavery!) that was removed in January 2023 -- while it certainly belongs in the Life of Plato page, it is an incredibly essential detail about an individual's life. It is not just "random biography" -- it is a life-changing course of events, and it deserves to be included here.

- 04:0804:08, 22 April 2023 diff hist +7,600 Garbhagriha Finished editing the rest of the article, and added many more sources.

- 00:2100:21, 9 April 2023 diff hist +228 History of measurement →Forerunners of the metric system: Added Clavius and Napier to list of people generally credited with introducing modern decimal point (Previous editor claimed that introduction of decimal point is attributed to Pitiscus but the actual source listed claimed two entirely different people )
- 00:1300:13, 9 April 2023 diff hist 0 History of measurement →Forerunners of the metric system: Moved the citation to the correct place in the paragraph that the source supports (cited page says nothing about Pitiscus or 1595))

4 April 2023
- 23:1923:19, 4 April 2023 diff hist +76 Chinese units of measurement →Length: Fixed incorrect values from Schinz source: Schinz did not list the values previously stated, and since no alternate source was provided, I inserted the correctly listed values. Can be cross-referenced here: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=qhcRYkz-I3YC&pg=PA69&lpg=PA69&dq=%22they+provided+the+basis+for+reconstructing%22&source=bl&ots=YbDxnkNn4h&sig=ACfU3U2S_acfmIyw-eKRfPVCiUS97zEbBw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiHk8zV_Y_-AhWM9zgGHWvtBrQQ6AF6BAgJEAM#v=snippet&q=428.58&f=false

- 07:2307:23, 4 April 2023 diff hist +241 Chinese units of measurement →Length: Added range of dynasties from corresponding Wikipedia pages for ease of readability (ie, readers unfamiliar with Chinese history could not even guess the time periods)
