Thank you for the Talk page info at Draft:Christianization of the Roman Empire as diffusion of innovation. However did you even find it? You seem way more experienced and knowledgeable than I, and if you don't mind helping out a bit more, I have some other questions. Diffusion of innovation is a section title, and when I went to work on the draft it came up with the full title and (section) next to it. Then the next time, it didn't. I don't understand, and I am wondering if I need to change the title, and how to do that. Also, this is a total rewrite of another article Christianization of the Roman Empire. It got lots of objections, and I am wondering about changing its title to represent that it is a historiographical view. This draft is a rewrite of CRE from this other perspective, should CRE just be deleted instead? I would love it if you wanted to participate here! Input from an editor of your quality would be valued and appreciated! Thanx again. Jenhawk777 (talk) 17:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you remember, I already made changes to the original article a few months ago. I am just interested in the topic. You can rename the draft through simply pressing the move button and adding a new title. Dimadick (talk) 18:02, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Did I offend you in some way? If I did I am genuinely sorry. I do tend to have strong opinions on this subject. I try to always keep it civil, and if I failed to do that, please forgive me. Others have strong feelings as well and have certainly frustrated me by repeatedly voicing opinion rather than sources, but I'm guessing that probably wasn't you. It's possible my frustration spread to those who didn't deserve it, so if it did, I am heartily sorry. I probably deserve it, but please don't hold whatever I did or said against me anyway. Jenhawk777 (talk) 02:53, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No I was not expressing anger, and you are unusually courteous for a Wikipedian. I was just explaining that the draft can be easily renamed. I will see what I can do about copyediting. Dimadick (talk) 04:57, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you - I think! Not too unusual I hope. Let it reflect that you are worth the effort rather than that I have some unusual virtue - I assume you think it's a virtue! Nevermind! I am losing ground here... Thank you for the help given so far and any future assistance you may feel led to provide. I do know that collaboration always produces a better result.Jenhawk777 (talk) 05:42, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've sent all the thank you's the system will allow, and it isn't a drop in the bucket! Bless you! Thank you in multiples! 17:34, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi Dimadick. Thanks for creating Category:Late Neolithic. I think we might need to separate the "Late Neolithic" in SW Asia from the "Late Neolithic" of Europe though, since these are unrelated entities separated by a few thousand years. And more broadly the subdivisions of the Neolithic are region-specific (e.g. the Pre-Pottery Neolithic exists only in SW Asia; the Eneolithic exists only in Central and Eastern Europe) so if we're going to subcategorise Category:Neolithic by period there should be some indication of the geographical scope of each category. I probably created the possibility for confusion when I moved Pottery Neolithic (about the SW Asian period) to Late Neolithic based on it being the more common name, not considering that it is also much more generic. Any ideas on how to proceed? – Joe (talk) 09:35, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For the time being, I am simply locating the articles that have texts concerning the Late Neolithic/Pottery Neolithic. The geographic scope can be covered in subcategories, provided that there is some kind of supporting text for them. Dimadick (talk) 09:38, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But this is creating a category that mixes totally unrelated articles like Dagenham idol (an artefact from England from c. 2250 BCE), Çayönü (a site in Turkey abandoned by c. 6800 BCE), and Yueshi culture (a culture in China dated to the 2nd millennium BCE). Even if we had subcategories for the regional periods, they shouldn't be categorised under Category:Late Neolithic, because they don't share a defining characteristic, just an overlap in terminology. – Joe (talk) 09:56, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As with the Neolithic itself, it covers a phase in the technological/cultural development of various regions. Not a direct lineage between cultures, nor a terminology limited to a single region. Most of these articles had not even been categorized as Neolithic sites or artifacts, not even marked as archaeological locations. Dimadick (talk) 10:01, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It really doesn't, but okay, you do you. Any categorisation is better than no categorisation, I suppose. – Joe (talk) 10:21, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
