Regarding
/History - wouldn't the ancient stuff be better under a
Mesopotamia entry? Britannica divides her history up under modern borders, and it is one of the most unbelievably frustrating parts of that encyclopedia. I think it would be nice to have wikipedia avoid the same.
I think the beauty of Wiki is that we can do both. A Mesopotamia entry does not conflict or take away from an Iraq entry. I don't however feel attached to either approach.
