User talk:Superb Bird-of-paradise/Blue Jade

I like the organization and the content. Please note that I've done a small amount of cleanup on the bibliographic references. There are other bibliography styles, but I think this works for now. When you've put this entry in Wikipedia mainspace, it will be good to put links to it from other relevant entries. Hoopes (talk) 22:37, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That said, you neglected to use or cite an essential source, the most significant scholarly, peer-reviewed article on this issue: Seitz, R., G.E. Harlow, V.B. Sisson, K.E. Taube (2001) ‘Olmec Blue’ and Formative Jade Sources: New Discoveries in Guatemala. Antiquity 75(290): 687-688. Hoopes (talk) 19:48, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You also do not cite (nor appear to have used) the most relevant book on this topic: Lange, F.W., ed. Precolumbian Jade: New Geological and Cultural Interpretations. Salt Lake City: University of Utah Press. Hoopes (talk) 19:51, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
