In the intro, for the last paragraph, please remove the words “he was extremely unpopular there” as there are no sources to back this up. 2600:100C:A205:743B:6D76:E1D7:3DC5:3420 (talk) 22:43, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Statements in the lead do not require citation if they are adequately supported in the body of the article, and not particularly controversial. In this case, the body of the article states that he was involved in multiple lawsuits, and that he was burned in effigy (all with suitable citations). If that's not unpopular, I'm not sure what is. I've restored the offending text. If someone really thinks it still needs citation, they can insert references to the existing citations in the body. Magic♪piano 15:00, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question about Judge Shippen

[edit]

In the article, it is said the 18-year-old daughter of Judge Edward Shippen (III), a Loyalist sympathizer. In that sentence, Judge Edward Shippen (III) is linked to Edward Shippen IV. There is an article called Edward Shippen III, but he is the great-grandfather of Peggy. Any idea what's going on? ‍ Relativity 03:54, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
