It should be "Proctor"; I've fixed this. BTW, there are a number of Crucible-related articles that could use the spoiler warning if you feel so inclined. — Deh 19:20, 7 Oct 2004 (UTC)
There is dispute about the "correct" spelling of the name. The majority of the primary source documents spelled the name "Procter" not "Proctor," although the latter spelling has become the default modern spelling of the name, as used by Miller.It really depends on whether this article is supposed to be about the actual person or the fictional character based loosely on her.

I changed some wording here and there, and corrected some spelling errors. Hopefully will be back later to add content. — Clocktowerkiss 20:25, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Verifiability & Accuracy

I'd really like to see more citations of sources in this article. I know there's a list of references at the bottom, for instance, I'd like to know exactly where the references to Ann (Holland) Bassett Burt's witchcraft case from 1669 came from. Ogram 01:55, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Problems with this article

The article seems to focus too much on the general events of the Salem With-Hunt Trials rather than the events and information that relate to Elizabeth Proctor herself. Ought to clean it up. Saphius (talk) 03:28, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
