[edit] Delisted GA
This article did not go through the current GA nomination process. Looking at the article as is, it fails on criteria 2b of the GA quality standards. Although references are provided, the citation of sources is essential for verifiability. Most Good Articles use inline citations. I would recommend that this be fixed, to reexamine the article against the GA quality standards, and to submit the article through the nomination process. --RelHistBuff 13:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Silk Road
The Silk Road ran from China and Japan to the Middle East and beyond, to Africa. This idea needs documentation. --McTrixie 23:17, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- Sure, but in the Silk Road article, not here - the Silk Road routes did not cross the Sahara. Warofdreams talk 01:35, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yes. I am not yet well-read in how Silk Road and Trans-Saharan trade connected in present-day Middle East.--McTrixie 19:41, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
