Negrito

"arguably" is speculation. I fear this is the editor's opinion (which violates Wikipedia's NPOV policy) and not from a verifiable source. --Ghostexorcist 12:00, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Totally agree with you. But "arguably" is the same thing as "thought by some".
Then if the citation in the following sentence doesn't cover the sentence in question, it needs to be deleted altogether. I wasn't the person who originally added arguably in the lead. --Ghostexorcist 11:04, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The citation covers both sentences. "...arguably the most enigmatic people on our planet." is a direct quote from a scientific research paper on the genetic affinities of the Andamanese. You can follow the link for yourself if you like.
If it's a direct quote, why isn't it surrounded by parenthesis? The citation should be at the end of the first quote. And it should be stated that the info comes from a research paper. So, you could say, "One recent research paper states the negrito are 'arguably the most...'" --Ghostexorcist 10:08, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Again, the citation covers both sentences.
Again, if it is a "direct citation", as you stated, it needs to be put in parenthesis. If not, it is considered plagiarism. It doesn't matter if it covers both sentences. Direct quotes have to be immediately cited. --Ghostexorcist 18:22, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
