This article, begun on 9 March 2006, remains very much so a work in progress. I have no illusions that it is complete or properly written (e.g. NPOV), and no intentions of leaving it as is. Please feel free to edit my work or add to it, but please keep in mind that I intend to work on it further within the next few days and to expand and improve it greatly. Thank you.LordAmeth18:40, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have tagged the article with unsourced and NPOV. There is not a single source cited in this article, and it contains POV statements.Crockspot17:37, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
'Since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, archaeological looting has become a minor problem.' Then why does it merit an article?Smacks of US mitigation propaganda.Beingsshepherd (talk)04:08, 20 February 2013 (UTC)Beingsshepherd[reply]
When I came across this article, I tried to fix typos and improve readability, rephrasing and putting in paragraph breaks. It mostly appears to be a long summary of one book and the author's name was incorrect in 80 references. I am not sure that this page is really worthwhile.SuW (talk)23:39, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
At the end of the section "Protection of museums under Ba'athist Iraq" there is the sentence "As 2002 came to an end the media and government were only broadcasting the good done by the troops in not destroying cultural heritage themselves but not on the looting done by people in Iraq and the Americans duty to protect the antiquities.[24]" This sentence is incorrect. There were not any American troops in Iraq in 2002, however there were American troops in Iraq in 2003. I am not in a position to determine if that is a typo or an unreliable source, but felt the error should be noted and corrected by a user who is in a position to do so. --Guest 20:58, 22 December 2023 (UTC)— Precedingunsigned comment added by173.9.90.197 (talk)
