Construction Dates

Shouldn't it be noted somewhere in here that the construction dates are currently being disputed? I understand that not all the voices in this debate may be considered legitimate (Graham Hancock), but there are some serious scholars who are on the side of the debate looking at alternative dating. It is also still a debate, so I'm not saying that the accepted (currently accepted) debates should be altered, but I think it's disingenuous to not at least include that there is a debate on these dates. I am not aware of a separate page devoted to this, if there is one, but I didn't see a link or anything for it on this page, and it seems like it would be an important topic or sub-topic to discuss here. I'm also not an expert on Egyptology, so I want to make it clear that I'm not here to debate the dates myself, only to mention that there is a current dispute over them. 5thwallRenaissance (talk) 14:15, 13 March 2020 (UTC) Alexander Greco 3/13/2020

@5thwallRenaissance: who are the scholars? Sources? Doug Weller talk 16:23, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

Recent citations need fixing

In particular, it is Miroslav Verner, not Mislov Verner. They should also have been full citations containing at least author, work, publisher and year of publication. User:Thanos5150, as you consider me a dishonest cowardly hack[1] I wouldn't dream of tampering with your edits, but I hope you will fix them. It would be a good idea to make sure that all the references to the same source are amalgamated. You might want to read Help:Referencing for beginners, despite it's title it's still an excellent source for anyone and its videos make life easier. This article will never regain its Good Article status without the citations being fixed. Doug Weller talk 09:52, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
