NPOV?

[edit]

"Shamash (the Babylonian sun god) is most likely a distorted myth based on Shamsiel."

Considering the Babylonian myth of the sun god Shamash predates the Judaic myth of the angel Shamsiel, would it not be more accurate to say that Shamsiel was the distorted myth based on Shamash? Or is the article attempting to suggest the actual existence of the angel Shamsiel, on which Shamash is based? I'm pretty sure that wouldn't belong on Wikipedia. --70.121.26.115 00:50, 27 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I'm moving this section to the talk page for a bit of discussion. There are a couple of issues to discuss.

1) Can you please provide a proper citation for this reference. I am not the only editor that has brought up copyright concerns. In that citation can you please provide a page number for the specific section you are quoting for this support?

2) Can you edit your submission for proper grammar, including capitalizations? Also please review a bit to ensure it is written in an encylopedic manner.

3) Can you offer a bit to support that this source meets WP:RS requirements?

Here is the relevant text:

and Shapash (the Canaanite sun goddess)... [1]

Thanks,

I wanted to bump this a bit for review over the next week or two. I think A. Parrot answered point 3, so I think we can mark that off. I couldn't find an entry for either Shamsiel or Shapash, so I'm not sure what the editor was referencing for this addition. Squatch347 (talk) 16:27, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

From the edit log: https://imgur.com/UXHzDRm I think this satisfies the requirements listed above. @Falconfly:, can you update the citation with the page number you got that from and the proper wikipedia citation for the source? Thanks! Squatch347 (talk) 18:42, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
