Talk:William McIntosh/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article (copied from a website with permission) is well intentioned but relies on outmoded sources and focuses on relatively trivial aspects of the life of a very significant and controversial Indian leader of the early 1800s. The article misidentifies McIntosh's father (confusing him with a younger cousin bearing the same name). It foregrounds a patronizing pidgin quotation from one of McIntosh's widows, attributed to the Cherokee Advocate. Well, you get the idea.

I've started drafting an alternate version here and would welcome comments or changes. I've only been able to devote limited attention to this so far. Some comments on the talk page for the current article may be useful. -- Rob C (Alarob) 23:27, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
