i dont think its a stub —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.131.247.53 (talk • contribs) 22:51, November 27, 2005.

I agree with the anonymous commenter above; Skipwith is not so important as to merit more info. The current entry is sufficient-- frankly I question whether he would even have an entry were it not for his colorful name. Jonathan Versen 19:59, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Pardon me, but the man was an early United States diplomat, a close associate of Thomas Jefferson (who appointed him to his post in Paris) and Benjamin Franklin (with whom he served in Paris); and the Governor of an independent republic, though admittedly only for the scant 90 days of its existence. I'd stay that, far from being fully fleshed out as a stub, this figure may well be one of the more interesting, unheralded figures in early U.S. history. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bbadinov@mac.com (talk • contribs) 21:36, August 14, 2006 .
