I have worked on this as a manuscript at home and off-line to avoid hackers as I have also been involved in Politics locally. Dave, I do not have your email address but I do have one for Marshallsumter, so I will email him and hope that he can contact Dave. I want to publish this but I would like to send a copy to each. Marshallsumter has my email, too. I will be in touch soon via email

I notice that the contents of the Atlantis Location Hypothesis have been changed. In addition, My home Computer has been hacked and the PDF version has also been changed. Possibly within the last two years, I am not sure. Is it possible to recover the original version that was on Wikiversity from the time period in 2020 before the ABD legal action ensued?

Is there a way I can have a private place in Wikiversity draft accessible by only you or Marshallsumpter? Or, a way to find a similar editor on Word that it would be possible to restore it to the previous version before all of the editings occurred, especially my defense citation at the beginning citing examples of how so-called "fringe Science" was actually emerging science?

I am about at my wit's end with the editing when I am not allowed to post anything on wikipedia (do not deserve a capitalization) but they can come here and hack my work at will. Some of the things they posted on their site are more like a Saturday Morning child's cartoon than serious knowledge OR science. But I would not dare to correct their mistakes in science applications. After all, when my (and Marshall Sumter's) is published then they can say what they want. But they cannot shut me up now and it will be worse then. Even if the reviews are horrible people will want to read them out of curiosity. There is LOTS of current applicable science I have not yet touched upon.

I suppose that I can find a way to overcome the hackers at home and the malicious editing here, but at my age and with my health it's just not going to be worth the stress or the effort.

Honestly, it was easier to edit this in my spare time in the x-ray department where I did the preponderance of the work. Thanks you guys, I appreciate the help and the support from you BOTH over the years.

Let's move it to my private space, See if you can find the version right before the defenses of pseudoscience and Fringe Science were removed. Have Marshall Sumter e-mail me with the address. Then I'll look over it and see if we might get another PDF version.

Azores / Atlantis
Reː The Atlantis Location Hypothesis.

Dave Braunschweig Marshallsumpter

I wanted to modify Reference # 46 so that the original pdf file could be available through the Wayback machine so that it would be...

https://web.archive.org/web/20201231100246/http://www.marineboard.eu/file/8/download?token=Bn0b1Zhy

...but I am unfamiliar with how the edit function works. None of it looks the same now to me.

I am unclear on how the changes to the Atlantis Location Hypothesis might work. I realize that I have been absent from this project for quite a while. I am feeling better now. I've had reactions to medicines, several surgeries, kidney stone, bilateral cataract surgeries and I've lost about 60 lbs. I am still getting infusions of generic Remicade for Psoriatic arthritis and I feel and move a lot better now. I am not sure how to go about edition the Atlantis Location Hypothesis now. The last time I tried I think a Hacker got into it and I am not sure what he did to it. It looks all right now, though.

I's like to add some more to it regarding the "Little Ice Age" that should fit into it before the final destruction of Atlantis, which should fit at 12,000 years previously before the 11,700 date then the end of the last Ice age started the Holocene Epoch. But I cannot be sure how to edit the Hypothesis.

please advise. you may email me at jgarner812@gmail.com also. I will also check back here in a few days.

Dave Braunschwieg Marlshallsumpter

I think I have figured out what I was doing wrong. I replaced the original reference #46 with the Wayback machine download. I am going to try to get this done before I start my next project. I would like to put this into a book form like a story with this as the Atlantis Location Hypothesis included...somehow. I do not understand how the New policy about criticism works. I understand that it will stop malicious editing. In which case I would support it. Please advise. RAYLEIGH22 (discuss • contribs) 23:48, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

Azores / Atlantis
The Abstract of The Atlantis Location Hypothesis in Wikiversity has been changed to explain the contradictions of Wikipedia as follows. We can change it back if need be. Because of the resistance to new scientific ideas that appear in Wikiversity that are still in Wikipedia I feel that we owe the readers of Wikiversity an explanation of the perceived resistance to the Atlantis Location Hypothesis in Wikiversity. This has been going on for over 9 years.

The revised Abstract of The Atlantis Location Hypothesis in Wikiversity follows.

Dave Braunschweig Hi Dave,

I saw that there were some slight changes in the Atlantis Location Hypothesis address.

Is there any changing status of removing it from Draft? I found some pages associated with it that did not look familiar to me.

I lost your email or it doesn't seem to work so I wanted to ask about the Atlantis Hypothesis status.

Thanks

Marshallsumter, The map 2nd map under Further to the Azores Hypothesis >#* http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/paleo/ctl/images/iceage01.jpg  from the NOAA website is not working.

 * Marshallsumter,
 * Thank you.
 * Are you seeing an ice bridge from Europe to North America formed by Continental Ice and Sea Ice as I am? Or, am I misinterpreting the map Images?
 * RAYLEIGH22 (discuss • contribs) 23:57, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

There's an ice bridge on Lisiecki's map composed of Continental Ice and Sea Ice. The other map is somewhat unclear between Norway and Iceland. The latter map appears to show a continental shelf at or above sea level which is covered with Sea Ice on Lisiecki's map. As these continental shelves during the last Ice Age have not been heavily explored there may not be evidence of Continental Ice on them. Lisiecki may be assuming that Sea Ice was present as some sources put the sea level during the last Ice Age as higher than the edge of the continental shelves. --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 22:30, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

ːMarshallsumter,

I want to try to start editing the Atlantis Location Hypothesis again. I shall start slowly at first. The part I'd like to start adding is the Part where the impact of the asteroid/comet hits the Glacier and fragments of Ice form the Carolina Bays and the lakes in the Minnesota area. Of course, this research has already been done and I will use mostly Wikipedia and\or Wikiversity posts for references. Dr. Gasard(sic?) of the Azores Islands has either changed his earthquake sensor equipment to be more sensitive or the frequency and intensity of ocean floor earthquakes in the Azores have increased in frequency and/or intensity. As soon as I get the new Hypothesis information added I'd like to incorporate a more elaborate description/discussion from the section at the end back into the main body. The PDF version of the ALH (Atlantis Location Hypotheses) I feel could be offered in a publication form as a first edition. What are your thoughts about this. I would NOT want it available until sometime in the Summer of 2023. We should discuss it via our e-mail to see how and in what form it could be offered. Without the references it is quite short and not well evidenced/explained. So, I will be e-mailing you soon.



ABSTRACT
Wikipedia offers opinions about the Atlantis Location Hypothesis that are long-standing and that shun recent scientific knowledge gained from advances in Geology and Climate Change Science. Much has been written about Atlantis since Plato's Timaeus and Critias dialogues were written down over 2,400 years ago. Generally, this consensus that has been arrived at over the years relies upon perceived or imagined errors in the translation of Plato into modern language form that attempts to change the timelines of Plato in his original writings. Over the years timelines derived from the Bible has contradicted Plato's original timeline. For his text to survive those timelines had to be explained in a manner that would satisfy the religious authorities of the historical period in which they came up. Later, Gradualism also caused problems. Gradualism was a scientific explanation for the Earth that explained the timelines being discovered by science that went back millions and billions of years. Religious authorities who relied upon miracles and the 6 day creation of the Earth in addition to other catastrophic events described in the Bible became termed Catastrophism. Catastrophism is also causing resistance to this Atlantis Location Hypothesis in Wikipedia because mainstream science tends to Gradualism.

This Atlantis Location Hypothesis takes Plato's two works as documents of history because it has never been proven conclusively that they are not. From this record the search for Atlantis the island in the Atlantic Ocean just as Plato described is initiated and a hypothesis with evidence is submitted. Using scientific methods, research and principles we are establishing Atlantis in the Atlantic Ocean using these principles during the time Plato said it was there approximately 12,000 years ago. The modern sciences of today and very recent scientific climate and sea level change principles will help to establish the geography lesson of Plato. Of course, his justification is not the point here. The point is that the written and the oral records of humanity such as we have from Plato are important and will lead to revelations today that have been creatively suggested by inquisitive minds and then doubted by some of the best scientists and historians of the last 2,400 years or more.

11 July 2018 RAYLEIGH22 (discuss • contribs) 03:04, 12 July 2018 (UTC) I archived the Wikipedia Azores talk page section to the the Wikiversity Atlantis talk page. You can trim that specific archived talkpage if you want. I didn't know what you had in mind. Sidelight12 Talk 04:34, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

not sure who I am talking to here, but the part about the mountain range sinking into the supervolcano caldera at Yellowstone sure makes Atlantis sinking take on a whole different light.
I believe that the original statement that I referred was made by Dr. Jake Lowenstern of the USGS.

Right now there is so much research going on regarding I really don't know where to start. That and the whole wikiversity Azores/Atlantis/supervolcano site needs reorganized.

So I need to start looking around, which I have done. And no, you are not going to get a lot of vulcanologists to discuss Atlantis in the Azores although this argument has raised a lot of eyebrows in that community.

I am proud that it started wikipedia in 2009. Even though it had to be moved doing a Google search using keywords azores,atlantis,supervolcano never fails to pull up the site 1st at the top of the list.

I still would like a link to the wikiversity site from the Atlantis location site in wikipedia, that is where it started and the argument in favor of Atlantis in the Azores grows strength steadily.

Just look at this list of volcanos around the Azores. Rest assured, from the earthquake activity in the area and the supervolcano caldera and mantle plume none of these volcanoes in the Azores are technically dormant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_volcanoes_in_Portugal

Thanks for all of your help. Thank Doug, too, for me. I don't seem to be able to communicate well here yet, but I am sure that will come in time.

RAYLEIGH22 (discuss • contribs) 02:09, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

In addition, with all of the sites talking about Plato and Atlantis and Plato making up the story of Atlantis, I don't blame you all for moving my discussion. It was protection as well for both sites. There will come a day when even if Atlantis is not in the Azores rest assurred that a sunken landmass is...

Wikipedia Edits
Dave.

I placed the following on Wikipedia Azores Location

M. Ewing wrote that beach sand from prehistoric times was brought up in two deep sea cores, one from 3 km and the other from 5.5 km. These two cores came from an area over 1000 km from the coast on the Mid-Atlantic-Ridge. There were two layers in one core of sand which dated according to sedimentation rates at 20,000 to 100,000 years and in the other at 225,000 to 325,000 years.

R.W.Kobe found numerous diatoms from freshwater on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge from several cores that were taken over 900 km distance from the coast of Equatorial West Africa. He claimed that this was evidence that the area in question was islands 10 – 12,000 years ago. The diatoms that he found he said were deposited as sediment in fresh water lakes which were later inundated under 3km of sea water. He states that this was a more plausible explanation than the claim that turbidity currents had moved the diatoms 930 km along the sea bottom and then lifted them up over 1000 km and deposited them on a the top of a submerged hill.

B.C. Heezen et. al. reports that at 37 degrees North the Atlantis seamount located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge is flat topped at a depth of around 180 fathoms and has a current-rippled sand and or cobbles. Around a ton of limestone cobbles were brought up from the summit a sample of which gave a radio-carbon date of 12,000+/- 900 years. B.C. Heezen and colleagues states that that the limestone was lithified in a location above the water and that his is evidence that the seamount had once been an island but was submerged in the last 12,000 years

IS there anything that is technically NOT allowable about this post? IT was removed.

Can it be placed back? This was NOT a disruptive edit. I am being harassed.

Thanks.


 * First, do not repeat that edit again, or you will be blocked on Wikipedia for revert warring. Instead, use the Talk page to discuss your proposed additions and their reasons for removing them. Note that the reason given for one of the reverts was original research. You would need to move effectively document that what you are adding is not original research. This may be difficult, since they know you are doing your own original research. If you are unable to resolve your differences through discussion, there is a Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee you may refer to. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 03:39, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Your Wikipedia activity
I just noticed your Wikipedia activity on the topic of Atlantis. You are okay for now if you don't stir things up any more. What you were doing was clueless as to how Wikipedia works, and the warnings you got there were common, even though you did not understand the situation. That is quite normal, Wikipedia process can be arcane, and not necessarily what someone without experience with Wikipedia conflict would expect. And that community can have very little patience, and especially does not like long explanations, people have been blocked merely for making them.

As you know, you are welcome to develop educational resources on almost any topic on Wikiversity, and that includes Atlantis. If there is conflict, there are ways of resolving it here that only fail if users refuse or fail to be cooperative. A top-level resource, if anyone insists, should be rigorously neutral, and anything controversial can be shoved to attributed subpages. That will resolve almost all conflicts. It is not necessary to establish that an attributed opinion or point of view is "correct," and argument over that can be disruptive. Be polite, be respectful, be cooperative, and you should be fine on Wikiversity, leaving you with a high degree of freedom.

To be more specific, you filed a Request for Arbitration on Wikipedia. An arbitrator, quite kindly, deleted that. Looking at it, my immediate impression is "this user is an outsider and has no idea what he is doing." For example, you did not edit the section header as instructed, and you eliminated the final header "=" that caused the header to fail. You were taking a small editing dispute, without exhausting normal dispute resolution procedure, to the Committee. They dislike that, intensely. And you did not preview your edit carefully, even though it was going before the very busy Arbitration Committee, the top-level process on Wikipedia.

Users who don't know what they are doing who file arbitration requests commonly end up blocked, sometimes banned. That would not, in itself, stop you from working on Wikiversity, but if you can avoid a Wikipedia block, other possibilities remain open for you. As an example, you might be able to suggest to a user on an article talk page, perhaps asking a question, that they can look at or participate in or discuss the topic on Wikiversity. That would ordinarily be allowed there. "Do not discuss the issue raised there," unless it can be extremely brief. As to putting a sister wiki link on an article page, that is theoretically possible, but is also often opposed (and that this opposition is possibly improper doesn't help. If you push it, you can be sanctioned, and you have no credibility there, being a Single Purpose Account. I recommend that you stay entirely away from editing Wikipedia articles on Atlantis, or related topics, and on Talk pages, that you limit yourself, if you edit at all, to very brief notes, no long explanations of anything. Wikipedia is not interested in and does not support discussion of topics.

Good luck, and if you have any questions, you are welcome to ask. --Abd (discuss • contribs) 17:40, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Atlantis Location Hypothesis
From .

Dave,

I don't know your status at Wikiversity is currently. I was going to contact Allison Davenport and tell her of the story of the Atlantis Location Hypothesis and of the current suppression of the project. I'm not sure if I want to go to Sweeden, as money is an issue, but it would be in her area of free access to new ideas, etc. But first I want to know if it will injure you or your standing in any way. That would be something that I would not do. So, I guess I am seeking your opinion on this action before I do it. I am composing the email now on my private e-mail account jgarner812@gmail.com and if you want you can contact me there any time. OR, just message me in Wikipedia.

Thanks

 * Please do not edit someone else's archive. Archived discussions are historical and should not be extended. Just create a new thread.
 * Publishing content at Wikiversity is not a right. Wikiversity is a community, and anything posted here is posted only with either the implicit support of the community, or without the explicit objection of the community.
 * Atlantis Location hypothesis is fringe research and has caused disruption in the past. That disruption has led to explicit objections regarding this research. As repeated at and, you are required to address these community concerns before continuing your research.
 * Rather than addressing the concerns, you have disregarded multiple talk page norms, expanded on your passion for the topic, attempted to extend the research, and made it clear that you were done editing at Wikiversity and were moving on to another venue.
 * Now, rather than either moving on or following guidance described on several occasions on multiple pages, you wish to claim suppression and seek support from the WMF. I suppose you are welcome to do so if you wish, but I've never had any interactions with the WMF that required an in-person consultation, and I've never had any interactions with the WMF that didn't consider community consensus.
 * I am concerned that community-based development is not the best venue for this research. I am equally concerned that you have been unable to demonstrate a willingness to work with the community and follow community norms to support this research.
 * You need to make a decision. If you can work within the norms of this community and seek community support, you need to do so, following the advice and guidance you have already received. If not, you need to move on to a different venue. Any other approach will likely result in the community helping to make the decision for you.

I am going to start on it and spend as much time on it as I can. I have had all kinds of medical problems but I feel like I can resume it now and start putting it into book form.
