From: "David Goodman" <dgoodmanny(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: English Wikipedia <wikien-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> To: "English Wikipedia" <wikien-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Subject: Re: [WikiEN-l] An infobox achievement Date: Sun, 20 May 2007 15:44:01 -0400 The infobox for [[Johannes Gutenberg]] once said "inventor of printing" & once said "goldsmith". it now says "inventor, engraver, and printer." One of those working on the page is certain Gutenberg undoubtedly merely adapted earlier Chinese & Korean inventions, & another is convinced the Asian inventions were undoubtedly irrelevant. (There is scholarly support for both positions, & a number of others.) The current version is a compromise that took months to negotiate, even after the wording for the article was negotiated.
