To write a good article it is necessary to have a good knowledge of the subject, which is gotten only by investing a lot of time and effort in study. Without that level of knowledge, anything written on a subject is guess work. For instance, of the articles on your list, the one that interest me is Vikings. In fact, because of my interest in knot patterns, I included quite few Viking (Norse) images in the image gallery here
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Knots_in...l_art#Norse_art

As you can see, there are sub-sections for Oseberg style, Borre style, Jelling style, etc. But, while classifying the images into the sub-sections, I realized I had a problem: I was dependent on the classification given with the image file. How do I know if the classification is correct? It could be wrong. In addition, I found some images that did not come with any information about the style they are classified in. How do I deal with those images? The only solution is to study the subject until I reach that point where I am sure I know what I am writing about. Until then I am left with the uneasy feeling that the information I have put into the gallery may be just more Wikipedia bullshit.
