Edit summaries, please

Hello Raggz- A couple of general editing suggestions for you to consider:

• Please make a habit of providing an edit summary when you make a change to an article. Doing so makes it easier for your colleagues here to understand the intention of your edit.
• Plus, it will be easier for you and your co-editors to collaborate on articles if, instead of making multiple consecutive edits in rapid succession on an article, you use the "Show preview" button to view your changes incrementally before finally saving the page once you're satisfied with your edits. This keeps the page history of the article less cluttered.

Thanks in advance for considering these suggestions. Eric 20:38, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Good ideas. The summaries are easy to do, the second harder because I often don't know exactly what to say. ~~

Ictus / Vectis

Hello! Thanks for your edit to Isle of Wight. I was checking your new reference but I couldn't find any details of the Ictus/Vectis issue that you mention in it. Also, I wondered if you were thinking of Ictis which is not quite the same thing? Can you find a more specific reference, or guide me to another source maybe? Thanks!

== Thank you for improving my edit. I will look at Ictus/Vectis.

There was a tin road from the Rhine to Anatolia where it was needed to make bronze. There is good a citation for a regular tin sea route to the Rhine and also a for trade route from the Isle of Wight to the amber roadand to the Med. The wheat came from the Anatolia area. Do you think that this is too speculative? Raggz (talk) 02:20, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

That is evidence for trade between what is now the South of England and those areas, but what's needed to support your edit is evidence that Ictis/Ictus is actually the Isle of Wight. At the moment the Ictis article is not supportive, although the Island is shown as one (fairly weak) candidate amongst many. Maybe this would be more appropriate for a mention in History of the Isle of Wight where there is more room for a nuanced explanation of this essentially unresolvable subject?
