The first sentence under the "History of the Polynesian People" section of the Wikipedia Polynesia article violates the very objection for which my editing for it was rejected. It makes broad sweeping claims with no documentation. But even if documentation were provided, the claims in that sentence are guilty of the very judgement the article used against an opposing theory, that is, they are "wrong;" a term the article used about Thor's work. What it said about Thor's work says more about the author himself, than about Thor's work.

This section should be deleted if Wikipedia desires to gain scholarly acceptance. Otherwise it is undermining the scholarship of Wikipedia-- those of my "rank and file," level of education and research scholarship, will be forced to rate Wikipedia as an unacceptable and unreliable source of information. I say this as one who has spent a half dozen years living in Polynesia, besides being somewhat of a specialist in certain areas of linguistics, archeology, and origins of cultures and peoples. My Ph.D. was in ancient studies and I am a retired university professor. If I were not retired, I might be tempted to provide a scholarly article to submit to Wikipedia, to counter balance the tangent of this section of the Polynesia article.
