Why was book title removed from list of works by Dougweller? and this page protected so other don't edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Catalinacoast ( talk • contribs)
I came to here after Rosa lecture in Miami the audience asked why this information is not more known and one Rosa complaint is that wikipedia do not like his research and attacks it because it thinks the Italian story is correct one my edits removal asserts Rosa position that this site do not like him personally and reject all who support him. Catalinacoast ( talk) 05:05, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
And, coming in long after this thread ended, I noticed that all 13 of Catalinecoast's edits were on subjects Rosa writes about. Doug Weller talk 18:29, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Full Definition of historian 1 : a student or writer of history; especially : one who produces a scholarly synthesis 2 : a writer or compiler of a chronicle — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:691:5337:2882:23DF:E912:2A41 ( talk) 14:35, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
For those who have been attacking Manuel Rosa's work you should know that in 11 years not a single historian or university academic has been able to refutiate his claims of a fraudulent "Italian" Columbus. In fact, more and more academics are agreeing with him and after release of his latest book in Portugal, COLOMBO MiSTÉRIO RESOLVIDo, "Columbus Mystery Solved" the First International Congress on Columbus has been scheduled for Lisbon on March 8-10, 2018.... soon the history books will change and the "genoese" fraud will be erased. International Congress on Columbus — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.6.205.228 ( talk) 19:04, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
[6] ". Rosa is understandably defensive about having his work dismissed as a conspiracy theory, though what he advances is quite literally that: he argues that Columbus and others plotted to hide his true identity, to disseminate misinformation, and to deceive Spain for the benefit of Portugal. The author’s depiction of Columbus assuredly violates Occam’s razor, which doesn’t signify it can’t be true but does mean it isn’t terribly persuasive. “There is only one history of the world,” writes Rosa, “although there are countless ways for people to retell it.” With this nod to subjectivity, the author invites the reader to enjoy what is, in the end, a fun mystery surrounding one of history’s most prominent figures.
An enthralling, if ultimately unconvincing, hypothesis for the origins and motivations of Columbus." Doug Weller talk 20:24, 25 December 2017 (UTC)

...or does anybody else read this sentence
"He is an independent researcher and lecturer on the life of Christopher Columbus, who has published several controversial books [..]"
as saying that Columbus has published several controversial books? My feeling is that the comma after "Columbus" should go. Alternatively, we could start a new sentence "He has published [..]" -- Hob Gadling ( talk) 13:51, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
I have tried to edit to add the PhD information but this is all confusing to me on how these forms work maybe someone more experienced can fix it?
