Satire[edit]

The note about the ship Amboyna being a reference to 'a notorious massacre' was changed to 'notorious execution' a while ago. This isn't really on: The source, and the linked article, both refer to the incident as a massacre, so this change is misleading; not to mention reflecting a POV at odds with both Gulliver and Swift. So I've changed it back to the way it was.
. If a more neutral tone is wanted, then 'notorious incident in which ten British traders were killed' is a possibility, but as the incident is regarded by the Brits as judicial murder, the term 'execution' is itself non-neutral. Moonraker12 (talk) 22:24, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
