Hey

Can you help me create the Nathan Damigo page? I’m not really sure how Misplaced Pages code works, and I’m afraid it will be deleted by the time I create something. Thanks for helping to defend me by the way.

Can we remove the sentence about Psalm 90:10 from the Centenarian article?

Hi, I see that you have left in the part in the Centenarian article about Psalm 90:10 mentioning a life expectancy of seventy to eighty years. That might have very well been the case, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to use a religious text as a source. Because different religions have given different life expectancies in their respective sacred texts. For example, the Vedas give a life expectancy of 100 years, and the Hadiths in the Quran give a life expectancy of 60 to 70 years. Even if the Psalm bit was left in, the article would seem like a pro-Judaism article because it does not acknowledge the Vedas nor the Hadiths in the Quran. So Misplaced Pages probably should not use religious texts as sources for this type of subject matter because neutrality is a better option when the truth is uncertain.

First, you deleted well sourced material and left a nonsense section, which isn't constructive. Second, this section is simply a survey of different sources on human lifespan in ancient times. If you have other sources, they could be included if there is consensus. --I am One of Many (talk) 02:53, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

But what does Psalm 90:10 have to do with centenarians? Shouldn’t it be in the life expectancy or longevity article instead? Yellow Sunstreaker (talk) 05:46, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
