Talk:Massacre of 1391

 * I would argue that correcting this article is of the highest importance to both projects -- Spain and Jewish history -- because it is a product of inaccurate, simplistic antisemetic narratives that have historically stimulated misunderstanding and hatred and continue to do so today. An article so glib and inaccurate on such an important subect should not be on Wikipedia. Frederikajanes (talk) 11:52, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

The source n°3 used in the page:

Lea, Henry Charles (January 1896). "Ferrand Martinez and the Massacres of 1391". The American Historical Review. 1 (2): 209–219. doi:10.2307/1833647. JSTOR 1833647

is not reliable. As the author of it, Henry Charles Lea, is known to have mixed his own biases into his historical publications. "Although some criticized him for anti-Catholic bias" "His study of the Inquisition was also criticized for anti-Spanish bias, which Julián Juderías in 1914 termed the 'leyenda negra' (a/k/a Black legend)"

What actions would be better to take here? Remove all the mentions from the questionable source, or try to contextualize it?
