[edit]

This article is deeply flawed. The author obviously never conducted historical research in primary source documents of which there are plenty on the subject. Salvador was killed in 1776, not 1775, during a punative military exepdition by colonial forces. This article is a fine example of poor writing a bad scholarship.

Category:American slave owners

[edit]

Buying African slaves to work his land...

An entirely standard routine at that time. I feel that this mention has been bolted-on by some diversity editor. The category should be restricted to people whose slave-owning history was notable in itself. Valetude (talk) 16:20, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Without those seven words there would be no indication in the article that he owned slaves. Being "entirely standard routine at the time" is irrelevant; you presumably don't take issue with his inclusion in the categories of "people of pre-statehood South Carolina" or "businesspeople from London" despite their utter normalcy. I see nothing wrong in briefly pointing out that Francis Salvador owned slaves. It isn't something trivial like his favorite color. --Ismail (talk) 03:59, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
