I'm afraid this conversation has now completely wandered off-topic.
This forum is for the announcement of new work and general "real life" news relating to the Voynich.
It has, however, developed into a philosophical discussion upon referencing the work of others. Personally, I think the world of academia has sufficient rules on how to reference other's works without it being rehashed here, and feel it is outside the scope of this forum.
Diane made it clear in her first post that anyone wishing to comment upon the references she used for her article should contact her off-forum at her email address, and did not invite further discussion here. This post was perfectly correct and suitable for this forum.
The rest of this discussion should be elsewhere - I would suggest a thread in the "Off-Topic" forum if anyone has any general musings on the topic.
