KV33?

[edit]

This appears to be a discription of TT33, rather than KV33, which is a small tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Markh (talk) 20:48, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the material you have removed is clearly about TT33, but shouldn't that material be moved to a (seemingly new) page for that tomb rather than just removing it from here? (Are there in fact any articles on the Theban Tombs (TT) specifically?) I only mention it because what was added seemed to be good and well-sourced info, and it would be a shame to chuck it completely. Captmondo (talk) 16:48, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In answer to my own early question, there are info on selected Theban Tombs, see: Category:Theban Tombs. There's also a page for this tomb, though it uses a naming convention not found for the other Theban Tombs, which is why I couldn't easily find it. Since there is an article for it, non-duplicate material of the deleted text from this article ought to go there. Captmondo (talk) 17:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I moved much the content from here to the TT33 article - which was named as there is another TT33 article. I have just moved Tomb TT33 to TT33 (Tomb), to make it a little easier to find. Markh (talk) 08:54, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your assistance Mark et al, for transferring the article material to its correct heading. I was surprized and somewhat piqued to see that I'd done a quick write-up pulled from another article without actually researching its true tomb designator. That's what happens when you have wannabe writers working outside of their comfort zones.... ;-) --HarryZilber (talk) 21:45, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. Would-be editors are a dime a dozen here (maybe cheaper) but actual contributors of good, well-sourced, content are less so. Which is why I didn't want this material to be summarily deleted.
Besides, everybody's got to start *somewhere*. Cheers! Captmondo (talk) 12:45, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia's motto (or at least one of them) is "Be bold", so no harm done, it expanded the actual TT33 article, so nothing was wasted Markh (talk) 21:08, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
