Although I've added much more content, it is not appearing on the page. Can someone please explain why the edits entered are not appearing?

[edit] Alexander Turnball Library

The reference to teaching at the Alexander Turnball Library needs checking. The Library does not carry out any teaching. Alan Liefting 19:36, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality

Serious work needed on neutrality. What reliable published sources support the main thrust of the article: that Alfred Crosby has been eclipsed by Jared Diamond? If there aren't any, this is well into original research as "unpublished analysis or synthesis of published material that appears to advance a position". Tearlach 22:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

I have removed much of that editorial comment in favor of actual discussion of Crosby. I have left the neutrality dispute tag in place, but would welcome another editor reviewing the current revision and removing it at their discretion. --SuperNova |T|C| 08:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Comments regarding Jared Diamond in this article at this time appear to be neutral and pertinent. Will remove neutrality tag. --Csonnich 03:23, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
