• 19:0419:04, 8 November 2024 diff hist +14 Hammam Reverted good faith edits by everyone else: In yet another attempt at compromise, can we at least leave it now, omiting 'inaccurate' but leaving 'by Westerners'? Though I still believe it is increasingly resented in the wider Islamic world that Turkey "appears" to be appropriating its culture.
• 14:0614:06, 8 November 2024 diff hist +27 Hammam Undid revision 1256136485 by 88.255.254.103 (talk) I have again reverted to what I believed was a compromise wording. This inaccuracy is backed up by the Peteet reference. I don't understand why this statement of fact cannot be accepted? It specifically reinforces the concept of the hammam as part of the culture of the whole Islamic world; it is NOT specifically Turkish. Tags: Undo Reverted

• 15:4615:46, 16 October 2024 diff hist −26 Turkish Baths, Lincoln Place By all means report me. I think vandalising is not a polite word for correcting an error. I believe that Wikipedia would require a source to indicate that it was private when the existing reference specifically says 'opened yesterday for the entrance of the public'[. I would be happy to add a definition of Victorian Turkish baths to the lead but I assumed that the link fulfilled that purpose. Tag: Reverted

I've retained your "often", so it's no longer a ''sine qua non''. Are you disagreeing with the scholarly reference? I would have thought that the present wording takes care of everyone's concerns and is an extremely carefully worded compromise, as is encouraged by Wikipedia. Tag: Undo
