This is the usual COMEDY !!! As Wikipedia administrators don't want to
OPENLY SHOW THEIR INTOLERANCE and AFFECTION for CENSORSHIP, they are
using this kind of comedy. But I bet everything you want that the
result is already known : THE DELETION!..


seems a normal thing when one remarks that typing "Proto-Ionians" on
Google or Yahoo, there are c. 1,000 references.

Actually, Google only gives 676 reerences, rather less than 1000, and of
the first 30 in that list:
        - 1 is an article by Faucounau
        - 5 are copies Wikipedia articles at other sites
        - 18 are threads where you have mention Faucounau's theory
        - 1 is somebody mentioning "Proto-Ionians" with no connection to
          you (I'm being nice an assuming that you don't nymshift)
        - 1 is a books.google.com result where I can't find the phrase
        - 1 is a domaintools.com advert link on an unrelated page
        - 2 are seemingly outdated links not posessing the phrase
        - 1 article on a Greek yahoo list, and I don't read Greek

Maybe... But what I have noticed is that more and more papers and
journals (mostly in French) are now talking about the "proto-Ionian
Theory" as being very plausible...


Happily, a "Wiki-administrator", named "Henrik", with NO KNOWLEDGE in
Archaeology or Linguistics
                           and that some suspect to be the natural son
of late Dr Goebbels, was there. He has proposed the suppression of

Argumentum ad hominem, Grapheus. Shame on you. It doesn't matter whom
this Henrik's parents are.

Oh YES ! It matters... Would it be to explain his NATURAL INCLINATION
to CENSORSHIP...


                                He has proposed the suppression of
this article. His motive ? He dislike the word "Proto-Ionians".

Prove that Henrik dislikes the word. Can you make that claim more than
mere assertion?

Of course !.. Henrik has BLOCKED the following sentence, which
explains the origin of the word :

"(Proto-Ionians are a people such designated by J. Faucounau) TO
AVOID, as he wrote, THE WORD "PELASGIANS", THAT HE CONSIDERS AS
AMBIGUOUS."

Why Henrik has BLOCKED this sentence ?.. ONLY to be able to pretend
that "Proto-Ionians" do exist only in the imagination of ONE
author !... Of course ! The others use the word "Pelasgians"
instead !!!!

So works WIKIPEDIA...

Seems like a decent system to me, and you're not exactly known for NPOV
editing habits on Wikipedia. I am not competent in archaeology or Greek
history to judge Faucounau's work, however the fact that he is described
as an "amateur linguist" by what appears to be your edits on Wikipedia
does raise a valid concern in my mind about Faucounau's credentials.

He has SURELY more credentials than the "WIKI-administrators" who have
decided to delete the article about his theory !...
