Ursuline Convent Riots
I found quite a bit of information on this piece of early American history which I hadn't ever heard of. I'm particularly interested in people's thoughts about what kind of images people might find appropriate for the article. (There are several available from the Catholic University Archives, which I might get permission to use under GFDL.) -- MatthewDBA 21:15, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
 * It's a nicely-written article. There were several assertions in the "Background" and "Rebecca Reed" that could do with backing up with references. (Such as the statement that "Some authors... have speculated that discussion of the manuscript may have contributed ... riots.") The number of categories is perhaps bordering on the excessive, and some could be pruned as redundant. As for pictures, I'd expect for that period it would all be artwork anyway. So perhaps an image of the convent and possibly something portraying the riots? It might also be helpful to include a map of the area showing the riot locations, if that's possible. Thank you. &mdash; RJH 16:14, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! That's exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. I did prune back the categories (didn't realize there would be so many auto-added), and I added some references for the two sections you're mentioning. I think I have a sketch of the convent before and after the riots; I'll check with Catholic University about any usage restrictions. I'll also see what I can do about a map; I know there are some Wikipedia map resources but I'm not really familiar with them; I'll look into that. &mdash; MatthewDBA 12:40, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
