Aboriginal Australians

This page suggests that Aboriginal Australians commited high rates of infanticide, however this was mostly reported on as a reasoning for the stolen generation and was not anywhere near as common as many old sources suggest. Modern sources such as [1] say that "What was, in all likelihood, an exceptional and incidental practice amongst Aboriginal people, rather than a matter of common custom, was raised up by the interaction of European and Aboriginal fears of the other into a morally and racially defining trope that marked whole communities as ‘infanticidal’, and as people whose common rights could be morally suspended." – Unsigned comment, made some time before 12:49, 15 May 2022

Disruptive editing regarding Romania

Hi IP editor, what's your issue with the text especially in regard to Romania which you continually try to delete? It's sourced and, as far as I can see, absolutely fine. But if you think there's something wrong with it, let's discuss it here. Gawaon (talk) 09:20, 18 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bioethics views on Infanticide

Do you think recent views of bioethicists, including the argument for its morality in certain cases put forth by Alberto Giubilini and Francesco Minerva, or Peter Singer's views should be included in the article? 103.252.53.57 (talk) 08:04, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, they should. We just need sources that talk about their views, and then we can summarize those sources, per WP:V. Should probably go in a new section, maybe "Ethics", or "Views of Bio-ethicists"? ---Avatar317(talk) 23:11, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Self published sources

"Child skeletons with the marks of sacrifice have been found also in Egypt dating 950–720 BCE." is from a self published source i.e. lulu.com. It has not been added to the Egyptian section where the reader could see that it is contradicted by academic sources and I request that it be removed. 92.40.192.78 (talk) 18:25, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
