Talk:Francis Atterbury

POV

 * "Atterbury took leave of those whom he loved with a dignity and tenderness worthy of a better man, to the last protesting his innocence with a singular disingenuousness."

I think the language here is less than objective, to say the least.Fearwig 03:11, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Never mind, it's Britannica. My mistake. Fearwig 03:12, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * We should still emend it if it's not in a direct quote format, though. — Llywelyn II   02:11, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Also agree, the prose in the sections Leadership of High Church Party, Jacobitism, Arrest and Imprisonment could be more objectively presented, and looks suspiciously 'lifted' verbatim from the source cited. I have moderated one statement with the phrase "allegedly" concerning his description of the Hanoverian presence in Britain.Cloptonson (talk) 08:22, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Atterbury, Francis from the 9th edition of the Britannica has more, if the 11th didn't just copy it. (In which case, we should be citing it instead of the 1911 volume.) — Llywelyn II   02:11, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
