The closer has been gone for ages. It was redirected 5 years ago. I figured there is enough for an article. In good faith, I stubbed it. I hope that is okay. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:54, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Adding image of unfinished painting to article

What do you think? We could crop it? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:44, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Both sources that are used to say that the teeth came from slaves say "May have" and "possibly", yet the article states it as fact that they are from slaves.

Both sources that are used to say that the teeth came from slaves say "May have" and "possibly", they do not state it as fact that the teeth are from slaves. Yet the article states it as fact that they are from slaves, which is completely misleading as the article is currently written. Changing the article to state that they MAY HAVE or POSSIBLY came from slaves as the sources themselves state is a fair change. 2600:1700:1EC1:30C0:48E5:5DCC:F5CF:21D3 (talk)

What is this referring to?

“If Washington had been purchasing the teeth for himself, there would have been no need for this information;" This is in the dentures section. What is "this information?" What is this quote referring to? This is not explained. This quote is put in there without any information about what it's referring to. 2600:1700:BC01:9B0:2D74:B65B:B337:13ED (talk) 18:39, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
