message: I would like to point at some expressions that are too lofty in my opinion and sound a little bit like in a fairy tale: 
- "...until their death or ransom years later." >that doesn't describe a historical fact but emphasizes the imagined suffering of the people and is a subjective interpretation about the future treatment of the slaves
- "However, this proved to be a serious lack of understanding of the mindset of the English colonists and their backers overseas." > The lack of understanding and the mindset cannot be proven by any historical evidence but are a subjective psychological interpretation of both the thoughts of the Indians and the mental attitude (mindset) of the colonists 
I think that these passages show too much emotional underpinning toward the historical situation.
The easiest way in my opinion is to erase the cited passages because they both don't describe historical facts and are subjective non-proven interpretations. I hope my own phrasing in this comment is not too rude (and comprehensible) since I am no native speaker. Best  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.190.87.197 (talk) 04:36, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

message: This event is listed at List of events named massacre (formerly simply "List of massacres') as "Jamestown Massacre".  That list has undergone a revision of inclusion criteria, and now demands multiple reliable sources to substantiate that the word "Massacre" is used by as part of an accepted name for the event.  Unfortunately, I can not find any in a quick google search.  So I am posting here to ask for your assistance, since it is likely that the editors to this page will be familiar with the sources.  Please note that a source that mearly discribes the event as being a massacre is not enough.  It has to substantiate the NAME "Jamestown Massacre" or some close variant thereof.  
I also note that this article does not give a citation to verify the alternate name.  It should.

message: Two calculators I have consulted say that March 22 was a Tuesday, so I'm guessing that Good Friday could not have been March 22 as the article states, but possibly March 25. http://www.ely.anglican.org/cgi-bin/easter says that under the Julian Calendar, Good Friday was April 19. By the Gregorian calendar: March 25. Wouldn't April 19 be the most likely date? I note also that an extinct website has plenty of info http://web.archive.org/web/20070403133147/http://www.jamestowne.org/massacre.htm Alpheus (talk) 02:59, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi there,
On 15 October 2008, the "IP" 206.174.72.185 replaced in the legend of a picture Theodore de Bry by Matthaeus Merian, with the comment :
::Theodore de Bry was not artist of drawing; he wasn't even alive. Matthaeus_Merian is artist
In most of the other "interwiki'es" it is still Theodore de Bry and not Matthaeus Merian. Can someone control this ? 
I will try to post a "talk" in most of the other "interwikies".
Thanks

message: Changed name from Indian Massacre of 1622 toPowhatan attackof 1622 as this accords with the majorityof RS. I find no mention in the literature or popular culture of Indian Massacre of 1622, but do find Powhatan attach and Jamestown Massacre. Jamestown massacre is not descriptive because most of the attacks and deaths took place elsewhere's in the James River community. Indian massacre is ambiguous the title could mean an attack on or in the country  of India,or a massacre of Native Americans. The word Indian is considered by many to be racist or at least pejorative.Oldperson (talk) 14:43, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
