Notability

[edit]

This article does not prove notability. The only citation give is to a journal that does not qualify as reliable under WP:RS. OlYellerTalktome 18:01, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I did some searches to try and prove notability. Here's what I have so far. Google Scholar: Lenore Margarethe Selenka-Heinemann (0), Margarethe Selenka (54). Google News (Archives): Margarethe Selenka (4).

In those searches, there are ~58 possible references. I'd say about 75% of the archive searches are to the Journal of Women's History and another 15% are in German. I've started a list below of English references to add to the list. There's certainly enough to prove notability but we just need to get the refs into the article so that we can verify the information in the article. I'll tag the article up and then come back to references. Not that I have anything against German but it's hard to use a source as a reference if you don't know what it's saying.

Patriotic pacifism By Sandi E. Cooper

Article Name Change

[edit]

Everything I find about "Lenore Margarethe Selenka-Heinemann" references her as "Margarethe Lenore Selenka" instead. Unless others object, I'll be moving it to "Margarethe Lenore Selenka" and leaving a redirect to that page from here and from "Lenore Margarethe Selenka-Heinemann."

Accuracy

[edit]

The followind sentences imply that Homo erectus (Java man being one) isn't considered today by anthropologists a direct ancestor for humans:

"Creationists see this as proof that modern humans lived at the same time as Java men, thus excluding the possibility that Java man can be a direct ancestor for humans. This is based on a misunderstanding since Homo erectus is today by anthropologists seen as human itself.[citation needed]"

But Wiki page on Homo erectus states otherwise:

"no consensus has been reached as to whether it is ancestral to H. sapiens or any later hominids." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Twist73 (talkcontribs) 15:02, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
