There was no such thing as the "the Republic of South Carolina" -- that was a misunderstanding by amateur historians over 200 years later. South Carolina was a state, sent voting delegates to the Continental Congress, sent troops to the Continental Army, and was considered by everyone to be a full part of the United States of America. People who seem to think there was such a "Republic" need to get a source. Rjensen 11:33, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with in-line citation[edit]

I added a citation at the end of the second paragraph. It shows on the "edit this page" view, but does not appear below as a citation.--Parkwells (talk) 22:01, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

American Revolution[edit]

I think the American Revolution was a very very sad day for millions of people. 2600:380:E8A9:9760:F1FB:42A1:241C:F097 (talk) 00:46, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Point of view[edit]

The article has almost no reference. The two encyclopedias are inevitably biased. A couple of specifics: - it refers to "the Americans". The loyalists were Americans too. - The section entitled General Clinton's Mistakes describes three mistakes. These are someone’s opinion. No source is identified.

It has been flagged as needing inline citations for five years. At the end of 2023 it has only five, the same five as in 2018.

Since the material is covered elsewhere, perhaps the article should be deleted. Humphrey Tribble (talk) 14:56, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
