Your most recent edit on this page removed the name Daniel Defoe and replaced it with "A person". Although current scholarship may indicate that Defoe did not write the text, the quotation from Bey DOES mention Defoe's name. The quotation should be allowed to stand intact with a note (as already included) mentioning that Defoe was not the actual author. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:18, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, my mistake, wasn't paying close enough attention. We still ought to tweak the wording to reflect that Bey is wrong, though. Vincent pearse (talk) 19:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Defying Ocean's End

On your recent post to the Defying Ocean's End page, I had originally thought the same thing as I had read the book you refer to several years before Defying Ocean's End emerged. However, it turns out that the two names are a coincidence. The name actually comes from a prior Conservation International agenda-building conference entitled "Defying Nature's End". That conference focused entirely on terrestrial biodiversity. So, when they decided to put together a similar process for the ocean, the name was switched to "Defying Ocean's End". I am going to undo your post, but feel free to put something in along the lines of 'similar themes'. WildernessForever (talk) 07:53, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ahoy, Captain! I've just noticed, it looks like this edit of yours was based on an old version of the page, the result being that it also undid a few edits. Just thought you'd want to know. —AlphaMikeOmega (talk) 18:38, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
