I undid user [[User:Dilidor|Dilidor]]'s reversion of my recent edits. The grounds he gave for his revert were that my edits were "original research"; however they were properly cited to sources. They improved the article by making the meaning of the name "Narragansett" more explicit, and giving more detail on archaeological site "R.I. 110", which was named in the previous version but its location not given, nor any reference provided.[[User:Wwallacee|Wwallacee]] ([[User talk:Wwallacee|talk]]) 11:03, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

:The purpose of an encyclopedia is to outline what scholars have published in their research—''not'' to do your own research. You have indeed cited original sources such as Roger Williams, and you do quote from older historical treatments from the 1800s, but you use those sources to draw your own conclusions rather than tell the reader what Roger Williams concluded. Your theories are interesting, but you need to be able to credit them to a published source, not put them forth here and then point to Williams to support ''your'' conclusions. —[[User:Dilidor|Dilidor]] ([[User talk:Dilidor|talk]]) 09:52, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Narragansett people/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The Narragansett page says that the Naragansett sided with Wampanoag against the English while the Pequot sided with the Puritans. The Pequot page says the opposite, that the Narragansett sided with the English against the Pequot, without mentioning the Wampanoag in an alliance with either. The two articles in discussing King Philip's War should not call the Puritans "the English" at that point. At this hour I can't research into who sided with who, but I intend to.

Recent revert

I undid user Dilidor's reversion of my recent edits. The grounds he gave for his revert were that my edits were "original research"; however they were properly cited to sources. They improved the article by making the meaning of the name "Narragansett" more explicit, and giving more detail on archaeological site "R.I. 110", which was named in the previous version but its location not given, nor any reference provided.Wwallacee (talk) 11:03, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
