Hi, you do not really "join" the Teahouse. You can use it at any time to ask any questions you may have about editing Wikipedia, and our "hosts" will reply and try to help. GoldRomean (talk) 20:52, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that in an edit summary at

as a sourcing guideline. This isn't really a good idea. It is actually an essay, written by a contributor in regard to a specific issue we've been having over sources concerning the history of the Indian subcontinent. It isn't intended to cover sourcing more generally.

Having said that, you may well be making a valid point about the source. We probably shouldn't be citing Cicero for the specific statement being cited, as per Wikipedia:Reliable sources (the general guideline) articles need to be based around modern scholarship, rather than the primary source.
