Page creation edit
The content of this article was split from the article on Nudity, as discussed here.--WriterArtistDC (talk) 11:22, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
Neanderthals edit
I have added the journal article by Hardy et. al. to the Works cited section in spite of its being placed in an edit summary, and will determine if there is anything worth adding. No single source warrants tagging existing content "dubious" when supported by reliable sources. WriterArtistDC (talk) 03:21, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hardy et. al. is an article on primary research indicating the ability of Neanderthals to make twisted fiber cord, a technology the author asserts also indicates Neanderthals were as intelligent as Homo Sapiens. There is nothing in this source about cold tolerance or garment-making which is what an anonymous editor called into question, so I have reverted those changes. I may also delete Hardy, since it has nothing to say about the topic of this article.--WriterArtistDC (talk) 19:59, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
Added sources edit
I have added four citations to the "Works cited" section but may not get to adding content immediately. They are on neoteny and bipedalism as factors in human hairlessness. The authors are: Brown, Dávid-Barrett, Ruxton and Somel. WriterArtistDC (talk) 23:52, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
