Aftermath section[edit]

The sentence telling of the torture and execution of Giles's brother is supported by three citations; I deleted two unsourced sentences that cast doubt on whether that torture and execution ever took place. If reliable sources cast doubt on the historicity of the event, we should not only cite those sources but also revise the sentence about the torture/execution to clarify that it's reported in contemporary accounts, rather than simply presenting it in syntax that implies it really took place. 206.208.104.20 (talk) 17:56, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
