Boswell[edit]
I have reverted the link for Boswell to gypsy from Irish Traveller becasue the Boswells were not Irish. Travellers were diverse and according to the webiste for their family history the Boswells were an English gypsy family. I am well aware of the political arguments about the use of that word, but it is unclear if the Boswells were Roma and do not describe themselves as such.

Profanity[edit]
Wait.. what's Thomas Harman doing in the Profanity category? --Alexie 02:47, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
Worth splitting into two pages?[edit]
There is lots of good material there, but it seems unbalanced as a bio page on Thomas Harman, since much of the page is devoted to detailed discussion of the contents of the Caveat. Is it worth having a page for each? Dsp13 (talk) 14:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- The article is about A Caveat or Warning for Common Cursitors, which was written by Harman. The article could be moved to that title, and rewritten to focus on the text, with a section on the author, but two separate articles wouldn't be warranted as the text and author are linked. See WP:ONEVENT. SilkTork *YES! 17:27, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
- Looking at sources it seems that the text and the person are inter-related, and are spoken of together. SilkTork *YES! 17:35, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
