Indo-Aryan Peoples page corrected in Wikipedia

A while back in Wikipedia, the Indo-Aryan page was a bit concerning. Today though the page does say South Asia and Southeast Asia as the origins of Indo-Aryan languages, if thats of course what you wish to call it. Recently read was pages from the book "When God was a Woman" by Merlin Stone, which had an incredible mixture of theories of Indo-Aryan and Indo-European origins. It all would have been explained easier if a map of Asia and Southeast Asia was present. The Wikipedia page also now very vaguely points to an Australoid origin or more widely know as an "Austronesian Expansion". Polynesians seem to be both part of an Austronesian Expansion, and also a Mongoloid race "according to Wikipedia" at this time [Unsure who makes this stuff up]. There is even a photo of a "full-blooded Samoan" in the Mongoloid Race Wikipage. A photo identified by Louis R. Sullivan [identified unknown reason]. This post isn't meant to stir up anymore "King-of-the-mountain Theories", it's just a review of the online Wikipages which were read recently in curiosity. Keep in mind the date of this post, since the Wikipages are editable.
