Please don't go! We need to keep our our good historians, and try to get more. I know from personal experience that it has been difficult to get good additions to historical entries -- but those of us that love history just work on what we can when we can. Wikipedia is too important of a concept not to have very good historical articles. Please keep contributing, leave more of the discussion to the newer wikipedians -- like myself. I will continue to try my best to defend good submissions. [[maveric149]]

Your attitude is perfectly understandable, Michael--just don't go yet. JHK has had similar complaints, and I think this is a very important problem. We've got to figure out what to do about it. I'm thinking about it increasingly lately. --[[LMS]] (writing from the road--Gallup, New Mexico!)

Nope -- can't let you go. I refuse. You're absolutely right, though. I asked once (in a couple of places) why it is that people who won't argue with the Philosophers or mathemeticians (or MDs) seem to think that those of us who have spent years studying history and how to research and write it are fair game. I'd like to know, and wouldn't mind some more vocal support. J Hofmann Kemp
