Title[edit]
Can a source be cited for the title, "War of the League of the Indies"? Srnec (talk) 17:39, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
Removing sources[edit]
Hello @Javext, we are not using Primary sources for articles, especially for history related ones. And could you elaborate by meaning "analysed by secondary sources"? Imperial[AFCND] 16:49, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- I believe there is only 1 source that could be classified as primary which is:
- - Lemos, Jorge de (1585). História dos
- Cercos de Malaca &. Lisbon: Biblioteca
- Nacional.
- (Perhaps this one too but I am not sure; Pereira, António Pinto 1617. História da Índia, ao Tempo Que a Governou o Vice-Rei D. Luiz de Ataíde I 1986 reprint ed. Lisbon: Imprensa Nacional Casa da Moeda.)
- But you removed more. What I meant was that the secondary sources provided analyze the primary sources regarding this conflict.
- @Wareno Since you are the creator of this article, could you please check this and provide us with more information? Javext (talk) 19:27, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Yep that would be better. Some of the sources fall under WP: AGEMATTERS. That was one of the reasons for the removal of those sources, as I gave in edit summary. Especially in Indian history where WP:RAJ is present, we are using modern sources to cite history. Imperial[AFCND] 04:42, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Javext would you mind if I revert to my version? Or atleast cite the content in the infobox. WP:CALC would work, but consider using modern sources. I hope we all are aware about the exaggerations of Primary sources. Imperial[AFCND] 10:00, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- @ImperialAficionado Hello, I did not see this message in my notification box, I apologize.
- So, could you explain how all the sources you removed besides "Lemos, Jorge de (1585). História dos
- Cercos de Malaca &. Lisbon: Biblioteca Nacional." are classified as Primary? Thanks Javext (talk) 20:31, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Javext hello. Almost all the sources, not from the last century falls under WP:RAJ, WP: AGEMATTERS and would not be considered as reliable for citing historic narratives. It would be constructive if we provide newer sources. Imperial[AFCND] 19:13, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
