User talk:Emeagan

The last post, by...? consisted largely of an ad homimen attack on an individual who is not the subject of the article (and, oddly enough not me, the person whose post preceded this response). It must be very confusing to anyone outside of the personal controversy. It's even confusing to me. Since the previous commenter asks if I am really me I'll say that I am Eileen Eagan and I am a history professor at USM. The earlier comment yesterday was also my comment before I gave myself my user talk name. Historians generally like to have as many details correct as possible. There are, however, differences between minor errors and big ones and between things that some people assert are ambiguous and things to which there really is an answer (such as clear language in a document). It appears that the same person who objected to changes in this document, is now making changes in another entry, linking it to this one, for example. It's hard to see the point except to pursue a , umm, campaign. But maybe it's to allow people to get to read this set of comments too. Thanks. Emeagan (talk) 16:22, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
