Talk:Minutemen

Sint Eustatius
The paragraph mentioning Sint Eustatius is very hard to follow and its tone is not encyclopedic.


 * It implies that the Minutemen were a monolithic organization, well acquainted with world politics and involved in international trade.
 * That governors were appointed in 1689 seems out of context.
 * The sentence "The people of an island controlled by the Dutch, Sint Eustatius, decided they had had enough with the British being the major power and having its hand grasping over the entire world" does not belong in an encyclopedia. Closer to the facts would be this sentence from the entry for the island Sint Eustatius: "Since the island sold arms and ammunition to anyone willing to pay, it was one of the few places from which the rebellious British Thirteen Colonies of North America could obtain weaponry." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sint_Eustatius#.22First_Salute.22 Cwrwgar (talk) 10:56, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done for now: I see whole sections that have zero inline citations. If they are sourced from any sources already listed, it should be easy-peasy to add cites. Sam Sailor Talk! 11:17, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
