Talk:Andrew Dalby

Written like a resumé
In addition to lacking citations, the tone of this article is problematic since the subject of the article has contributed to its content (and talk page). An article that strictly summarizes a career is okay, provided it is well sourced and neutral in point or view. I’m not convinced these criteria have been met. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:2A5F:EEFE:985B:9CBA:3CAA:5F0D (talk) 01:55, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Got Sock Puppet?
The guy, Andrew Dalby or Charles Davis Douglas, has written his own article. He is perhaps more notable for self aggrandizement than his notably out-of-print books. 24.91.228.116 14:49, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't do sockpuppetry. I edit under my own name. The minor edits I've made to this page (see the history) have been to add a couple of links and correct minor details. And rew D alby  21:36, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

What is this nastiness? Many valuable books go out of print, alas. Dalby's books are standard references for ancient food. --Macrakis (talk) 23:18, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
 * ... in any case, most of them are in print! And rew D alby  13:20, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I added
... two new publications available 2009. I hope that's appropriate. And rew D alby 11:35, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Merge proposal
I have removed the old merge proposal template. It was opposed on Talk:The World and Wikipedia and it does not seem to be actively pursued here. --Edcolins (talk) 17:23, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
