Comments[edit]

Cut and paste[edit]

This article has all the hallmarks of a cut and paste job. The question is: where from ? -- Derek Ross | Talk

I agree. Any idea where it is from? --Timc 03:30, 6 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Seems to be from http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Pisidian%20antioch If I understood correctly there are no compyright problems, but correct me if I'm wrong. I started adding internal links to the article, but run out of time and patience. I'll continue later if the job is still unfinished. --Chino 10:14, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I don't think it's from there. Note the tiny text near the bottom which says...

This article was derived fully or in part from an article on Wikipedia.org - the free encyclopedia created and edited by online user community.

...and proves that encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com got it from us. -- Derek Ross | Talk 23:27, 2004 Nov 4 (UTC)

But it still looks like a cut'n paste. Well, if we can't find any copyright holder we might as well keep it. --Chino 09:57, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Who wrote this?

This article was studied and prepared by me, Director of Yalvac Museum. And freeecyclopedia used my article, after I wrote it. I aimed to prepare a compact, easy-understandable hand-guide for visitors in my first year in Antioch. And you right, it is partly a copy-paste work. I used many topics from S. Mitchell's book which is the only correct scientific work for the site. But the concept of explaining the site is mine. Best.

Too long?[edit]

One editor has commented that the article is too long. It is 18 printed pages. Maybe the descriptions of the individual buildings could be tersely summarized and forked? Student7 00:28, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
