Talk:Osceola

message: You need to check the statistics.  200,000 looks off for the number of troops deployed - especially given the time and the size of the Army.  The entire Army of the time was considerably less than 100,000 as I recall.
*I changed the size of the U.S. army to 40,000, based on what the Seminole Wars page has as the total.  I think that's the best number to put there until a more accurate one is found (assuming there is one).  MorrisGregorian 04:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

message: All information I have indicates Osceola was born in Georgia,  1804, along the Tallapoosa River.  Of course, borders may have changed since that time.  And I'm not familiar with the area.  Does the recent edit indicating that the birthplace is in present day Alabama ring true to anyone?  I am reverting until a source can be presented.  WBardwin 05:12, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

message: According to New International Encyclopedia, his wife was reclaimed as a slave in 1835.  He became belligerent in 1835 following the seizure of his wife.  He died in 1838, thus he could not have led any warriors during the conflict with the Caucasians which ended in 1842 or thereabouts.  GhostofSuperslum 14:01, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I took that paragraph out. As I've spent quite a bit of time on the Seminole Wars and Second Seminole War articles, I have a good collection of facts supported by reputable sources, and I'll try to work on this article when I get a chance. -- Donald Albury 02:22, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi, could someone in the know add a phonetic transcription of the name? Is it something like [asi'olə] or [ə'ʃolə] or perhaps [a'ʃolə]? --babbage (talk) 19:57, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That might be a bit hard to do. Yourdictionary.com gives äs′ē-ō′lə, the American Heritage Dictionary gives ǒsē-ōlə or ōsē-ōlə and rootswebgives osEO´lu. Good luck in translating them into IPA. And I suspect that all of those pronunciations differ significantly from the original Creek. -- Donald Albury 21:25, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I changed the cause of death section when I found "quinsy" as a well-established (based on the diary of the attending physician) cause on the Quinsy page. I looked at the citation given there on Google books and also at the citation for "malaria" as a cause of death and think "quinsy" is better founded, but I left the "malaria" citation in place, to cover all bases.--Ereunetes (talk) 20:12, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Hello Fellow Wikipedia Editors
I cleaned up the many 'citation needed' notations and modified the titles under the Wikipedia style notice concerning ' indiscriminate collection of information|trivial, minor, or unrelated references to popular culture.' 
Also, I improved the article by making it clear the list was related media, as is the standard for Wikipedia editing. This helped to enhance the editing community's established practice of improving articles
Rather than reorganize the entire list of Osceola's appearances in media, in order to explain the subject's impact on popular culture I changed the titles to reflect a list of related media. This kept the research already provided without creating an entire section which connected all of the disconnected links in the previous version.
I removed the Wikipedia style notice  since the problem seems fixed.
