Talk:Join, or Die

message: There is no source given for "During that era, there was a superstition that a snake which had been cut into pieces would come back to life if the pieces were put together before sunset.". It seems like an unlikely superstition in a society where it would be easy to try out. I suggest the sentence be documented or deleted.  rewinn 01:35, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

text: In the 18th century, a "drawing on paper" could not be multiply reproduced by mechanical methods.  It needed to be made into a woodcut, copper engraving, etc.  It wasn't until the late 19th century that an artist could produce a (monochrome) artwork by any method, and have that be automatically reproduced in the printing process without having to go through an engraver first...

thread_title:  Unite or Dead reference.  

message: On March 12th 2019 the article contained this sentence: "Also known as the French and Indian War, the Seven Years' War was a war (and choice) for the colonies against Britain, France, and their native allies." This sentence has many problems. Some of it is factually wrong. Some of it is meaningless. When a war is "for" something, what follows the "for" is the objective of one of the belligerents: the War For Independence, etc. Wars are not "for" one of the parties. Furthermore, the colonies were not one side with Britain, France, and their native allies on the other side. Honestly. Who wrote that? The colonies fought in this war simply because at the time they were part of the United Kingdom (a.k.a. "Britain"). Britain and France were NOT on the same side. Finally, there is "war (and choice)" which a phrase utterly lacking in encyclopedic meaning. At some level, any war is a choice. At some other level, any war is coerced. It depends on how you define "choice". Under the assumption that it is imperative that one's population not be enslaved, one could regard a war as forced. But it could be argued that the same war is "chosen" because it could have been avoided by accepting the enslavement of the population. Since this is a gray area for ALL wars, the phrase "(and choice)" smacks of cheap editorializing. But if anything it wasn't a choice for the colonies since as part of the U.K. the colonies would fight in the U.K.'s wars until becoming independent.74.64.104.99 (talk) 04:41, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Sentence about French/Indian War is wrong 

message: Under the Legacy header, there is the following sentence:
"All throughout the game Fallout 4 these posters can be found in buildings with no real context."
The line "all throughout the game Fallout 4" reads poorly and the "no real context" is an unnecessary opinion.  Consider deleting the line or someone with knowledge of the game rewriting.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.244.55.33 (talk) 21:25, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
