Another editor besides me reverted your edit, so I feel I should explain the grounds upon which it was done. You claim the Battle of Marathon did not take place in 490 BC, but this source appears to be reputable enough along with other corresponding sources that also claim that the battle took place at that time. In addition, you claim that there is no such thing as an Ionian Revolt, but it has quite an extensive article dedicated to it. If you have other sources and wish to dispute this, the talk page on Battle of Marathon is the best place to establish consensus. Until then, it is not quite a good idea to continually remove that part of the article, as it will in all likelihood eventually block you from further editing. The above links should help you, and if you wish to discuss this further simply reply here. Good luck. Recon Etc (talk) 00:42, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
