"Iapygians spoke a non-Italic language", but they "were akin to Oenotrians, an ancient Italic people". Since Italic peoples spoke Italic languages, there is something wrong in the article, I suppose..-- 3knolls (talk) 19:07, 2 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. This was an unsourced section from the old version of the article. Oenotrians were of Greek origin anyway. Alcaios (talk) 19:10, 2 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dear Βατο, could you move some parts of the /history/ section you have redacted in Messapic language to this article (perhaps those not directly related to the language), and/or help me improve the /history/ section in this article? Thank you. Regards, Alcaios (talk) 22:47, 2 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Alcaios, I will do it in the next few days, all the best. – Βατο (talk) 22:52, 2 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Their work is cited as a source in several articles concerning Iapygians, Messapians, Messapic language, etc.
It caused major parts of several pages to be seriously altered by unsubstantiated claims, linguistic and ethnic classifications that are not supported by the scholarly, nor is there any evidence for them in the ancient sources.
The result is that we have several articles filled with dubious claims that not necessarily align with history.
Something that should be definitely examined. M.Basileus (talk) 17:40, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
