Arnold Pannartz and Konrad Sweynheim
I reverted your edit because it was not written in a proper encyclopedic manner, but rather argumentatively, like a conference presentation--"So the following question presents itself: is it in fact possible to differentiate individual maps of the different editions?" In addition, the writing needs editing for fluency and idiom. Finally, the references aren't formatted properly, and no footnotes indicated what content was sourced to what article (I assume these are articles, and I hope they are published in a properly peer-reviewed article...). Thank you, Drmies (talk) 20:16, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I see the journal is reliable and legitimate, but misspelled: Quaerendo. Drmies (talk) 20:18, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Please don't go around doing the exact same thing you were doing before; I am getting the feeling you are plugging your own scholarship. Drmies (talk) 23:19, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Sweynheim, Ptolemy, Geography
Dear Mrs., Mr.,

I understand your reaction and policy.

I did a research about Ptolemy’s Cosmographia in many libraries in Europe and the USA together with Dr. Frans Laurentius ( a known researcher concerning watermarks) because I had questions and could not find the answers.

We published two articles about our research in Quaerendo a peer reviewed journal, one of the oldest about book science in the world. Quaerendo is published by Brill a well known publisher of scientific work. I added two print screens. One so you can see that Quaerendo is not misspelled. And another one, a comment, from Mary Pedley an editor from Imago Mundi a well known cartographic journal about our work.

I added some text on one webpage. If that is not the right format as you wrote me than I accept that you removed it.

The other thing I did was that I only added the references to the two articles on three pages all related to the subject (Sweynheim, Ptolemy and Geographia). So that people interested can find our research easier and perhaps answers to their questions.

It is up to you to replace these references or not.

I only tried to explain myself and our research a bit better to you.

Best regards,

de:Arnold Bucking
I have added a few sentences to the German article on Arnold Buckinck. Did I summarize your findings correctly? --HHill (talk) 11:38, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
