Disclosure: I am founder of this pilgrimage trail which roughly re-creates the route of the first Crusades, within modern boundaries. I walked the 4,223-km route in 2006 through 11 countries and two continents, was interviewed extensively along the way and upon arrival back home. I wrote a book about the experience with stages and lat/long noted. I have maintained websites since then about the trail (recently updated) and have had a Facebook page nearly ten years to assist others. I have also made public presentations on the subject for 15 years and written many articles. There was a Wikipedia page for the book from 2010-2021 until it was recently deleted.

I’ve updated references, but find that many articles are no longer available/searchable on the Internet. Is it worthwhile to still list the articles, publications, interviews, tv appearances and dates under citations? If so, how should I do this (format)?

Thanks. Alpiner123 (talk) 11:49, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

@BuySomeApples if you get the chance, I'd love your help with the maps/images if you have the chance. I tried to follow your edits in Mr. Wilson's article but didn't quite pull it off. Star Mississippi 02:28, 15 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Fixing up the page edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

@Alpiner123 and Star Mississippi: To start with I'm gonna trim down the page a little (but not anything like the other page!) I'm just removing any citations which don't directly mention the Templar Trail to start with. There's a lot of sources which mention surrounding events, but don't directly connect them to the Templar Trail. Most of these have to go because Wikipedia doesn't allow WP:Original research or WP:Synthesis. A few sources on the historical background of Godfrey's Crusade are fine though, since reliable sources connect Godrfrey's route to the Templar Trail. I'm also rephrasing some sections to be more encyclopedic. BuySomeApples (talk) 21:42, 16 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Markings edit

As I understand the article this is NOT a marked trail, but a report of two private individuals who wrote a book about their enterprise. Is this correct? --Zenwort 13:09, 4 December 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zenwort (talk • contribs)
