[edit] Bias?

Though the first sentence clearly explains that the title "massacre" was bestowed by Americans, does anyone else think that the title represents a clear anti-British bias that may cause misconceptions about what really happened? --queso man 18:30, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Do we know what the British call this battle? Whatever is decided here, it would also apply to the Baylor Massacre. That article is flagged with {{Globalize/USA}} because of the name issue and because all of the sources used to write the article were from the American side. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 20:30, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I would like to propose renaming this article to Battle of Paoli and tag the secondary names (Paoli Massacre and Battle of Paoli Tavern in the first sentences as AKAs, and also setup as redirects. Alphageekpa 10:38, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Rename done. Will work on migrating references to old, to avoid redirects. Alphageekpa 12:32, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
