This article is a POVFORK of Prehistoric Europe with material also forked from Celts. The article attracts edits about linguistic theories, migration theories etc, that are all treated in better articles, such as Yamnaya culture, Bronze Age Europe, etc., and the only thing distinguishing this from any of these is the term "Celt", but the article is about the time before the Celts, so it is not actually about that. Note that this nomination is not saying pre-celtic history is not notable. For the avoidance of doubt, it certainly is. The European bronze age and earlier are all very notable topics. The nomination is saying the treatment of the subject in this format, with this specific framing, is redundant (and perhaps contradicts better articles).

Redirect to Bronze Age Europe This is not really a standard term, and the article is rather confused. It was just slightly better in 2013. It is mostly about the arrival of Celtic languages, not what was there before. Johnbod (talk) 14:42, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
