[edit] My Picture
- Why is the top portion of my picture brown-black and the lower portion blue-black, with a couple of stripes through the center?
- WB2 05:51, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
-
- Color issue's not obvious to me. Stripes are faint but may be inherent in original scan? Chris Rodgers 06:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
-
-
- You can quite clearly see, that when you go to the image itself, it is cut off exactly at the place where a strip of clear tape appears to go horizontally across the image.
-
-
- This "tape" is not a part of the original image, and I have no way of knowing where the image will cut off after it uploads to your server.
-
-
- That's something someone would only know after it got there given: that any one in particular image varies greatly in size.
-
-
- Also, below this area, the image appears cloudy – as if someone from your end had done something to the image in transit or after it got there.

The introductory assisted in the foundation of Boston, Massachusetts is rather misleading, since Cotton arrived there in 1633, three years after the city had been founded. --Janneman 17:10, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 30 Sept. 2009 edit
Can somebody tell me what the anonymous edit on the 30th was all about? It almost looks like they were trying to delete one of the footnotes, but took out random bits of the first paragraph instead. I did a manual revert from 26 Sept., but if there's a valid reason, please fill us in. --Enwilson (talk) 22:30, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
I corrected two errors of fact (the English Civil War did NOT happen in 1788!) and (the description of the gravestone with Cotton's name on it suggests incorrect information: we don't know where his original stone or gravesite are, since the original building of King's Chapel I was plunked down on top of the earliest part of the old burying ground, probably courtesy of the much-disliked Royal Gov. Andros. I also "re-Englished' the term "paper battle" to the original term, "Pamphlet war," which is used to describe exchanges of published invective by contemporaneous controversialists). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dellaroux (talk • contribs) 03:32, 13 October 2009 (UTC) Dellaroux (talk) 03:37, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
This doesn't look right; I don't have time to look it up right now, but the dates don't make sense and it looks like someone playing with a Wolfman image as an anachronistic inclusion: ...."like his writing of the criticism of the lycanthropy of Tedford's Lycanthropious Diaramos (1587)...?? If true, it doesn't make much sense in relationship to the Westminister Catechism meetings... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dellaroux (talk • contribs) 03:36, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
OK, this also might be wrongly placed here: "The Brownist congregational movement within the Church of England had by this stage, in effect at least, become a separate church." Brownists are indeed associated with the Separatists; however, Cotton was a Puritan (different kettles of fish until later in the 1600s) and in fact was at first called the "vicar" of the First Church of Boston, a title which reflects the Puritans' greater tendency to retain certain traces of Anglicanism (like the rector/vicar titles for administrative church clergy) vs. the Calvinist four-fold ministery: "preacher/teacher/ruling elder/deacon" as outlined in the Institutiones'Italic text I'd remove the line but again hesitate to do so without more time to confirm my sense of this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dellaroux (talk • contribs) 03:48, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
