What we have looks nicely formatted, but the section on the riot itself is just a heading. I added hist-stub. RJFJR 17:39, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm coming back to that, thanks. Been busy at work. -- MatthewDBA 12:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

What about aftermath? Was anything said about it at the time? RJFJR 01:28, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Other than everyone saying how awful it was? It seems to have been rather well known, and there was a big deal about the fact that Ploughed Hill (the old name for where the convent was located) being across from Bunker Hill, with the appropriate references to what liberty really meant. -- MatthewDBA 12:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

I've updated the reference, incorporating Bisson's work and Schultz' later edition of the book. Other than that, I agree with the above observations. There are now connections to Maria Monk, and supplementary bibliographic documents there. User: Calibanu 13:41, 12 May 2006

[edit] GA Sweeps Review: Pass

As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the requirements of the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "World History-Americas" articles. I made several corrections throughout the article. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a good article. The article would benefit from any image if one is available. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have edited the article history to reflect this review. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 07:59, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
