edit the page

"Being a man of no principle, and solely bent on a distinguished ecclesiastical career..."

Not that I am qualified to edit this section, but I am pretty sure that whoever wrote this has never met Richard Sampson. Also, there are no surviving documents that would provide such insights into his personality and personal motivations.

I just don't think that one person's ill-informed exageration or embellishment, or whatever that is, should be one of the few things people think they know about him.

Can someone please make that paragraph sound like an encyclopedia entry, rather than the intoductory sentence for a gothic romance novel?

thanks.

Done. I note that much of this text was incorporated from the 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia. Could do with further rewriting with reference to other sources. (RT) (talk) 10:32, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another Richard Sampson

Last European mayor of Lusaka, Zambia. His name in the Lusaka entry re-directs here. Could we have a disambiguation section explaining that there are two of them? Any suggestions on how to make one appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.199.102.34 (talk) 09:34, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
