I took a few quick passes through this article due to a few run-on sentences and overuse of commas. It's possible that Ketch's reputation has been shaded too strongly to the dark side. He might've been notably inaccurate with Monmouth but this does not necessarily mean he was sadistic. It would take a proper historian to clear that up. :) - Anon Y. Mouse 21:40, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- Run ons and overuse of commas? I don't know what you're talking about, as I, at least, find no such mistakes in the prior versions, and the reputation is all that is available to historians, which is what is operative for any modern reader; therefore, I do not see how there are 'problems' to be addressed that can be addressed without the discovery of additional primary sources. Also note that that previous sentence was properly punctuated. Long does not mean "run on." A run on is a specific grammatical mistake (use of a coordinating conjunction to join independent clauses without a comma). Utgard Loki 15:12, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Billy Childish was one of the members of Jack Ketch & the Crowmen, as evidenced by the inclusion of two Crowmen tracks on the retrospective album "25 years of being childish". But I've only seen the Crowmen credit on emusic.com (I can't link the URL; it needs to be searched from their site); not on amazon.com. Can anybody confirm that Childish was a member of that band? not-just-yeti 20:24, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
