Conrad Weiser portrait

Why include a "portrait" that is manifestly false? Weiser died in 1760, long before the top hat became fashionable. "The founder of the Weiser Family Association and a great scholar and author, Rev. Frederick S. Weiser, did not believe this image was in any way accurate and in fact, laughed heartily about the garb the figure is wearing in it. No authentic and verifiable image of Conrad Weiser exists and it seems that artists may have modeled their own drawings on the drawings of others who strove to depict an image of Conrad Weiser."

I have given this article a B rating because while it is a good start with significant biographical information, it is in desperate need of a few impovements. Number one problem is a lack of citation. I would also like to see the Service section divided up by his various services as an interpreter/emisary, magistrate, military service, etc. DrLang 03:09, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
