I think that it was wrong to revert my edit. It is irrelevant how the author mentions the information as long as it doesn't violate copyrights,is from a reputable source, and supports the edit.As for the irrelevance of the Revoloutionary War, there is another sentence about the same treaty in the British Support For Indian Wars section,but no one appears to be attacking that.</blockquote> |

As ] (]), you spent many years attempting to insert a minority view about U.S. expansionism into the article, being barred twice for edit warring for your pains. This latest insertion appears to me to be a rather desperate attempt at source-shopping to support your ]. The cite is to a single throwaway sentence in a thirty-page dissertation about a different subject entirely. It therefore does not count as a ] when compared to works which focus on the subject in question. |

You have inserted a sentence which flatly contradicts the preceding paragraph, based on your one tangential source. The sentence about the Revolutionary War is a complete ''non sequitur'', irrelevant to the section. In short, your addition does not add to the article, and detracts from it by inserting confusing and poorly-sourced views. It will therefore be removed again. If you choose to edit-war on the matter, I will first submit a ] by other interested editors. If the concensus of opinion is against you, I will not hesitate to take the matter to the administrators, as I feel that over the years your edits on this subject have been generally disruptive.] (]) 14:32, 8 January 2012 (UTC) |

Sorry about my change of user name, I forgot my password. However, I think that it doesn't matter how something is mentioned in a book, as long as it is there and is by a reputable source. As for the consenus, I would not trust those results.This ongoing expansionism arguement is essentially a difference between American and Canadian/British viewpoints on the war. The Canadian/British viewpoint is that the U.S wanted to annex Canada.I think that this viewpoint deserves representation. But since the Canadian population is smaller then the population of the American state of California, there are many more American editors willing to support the American viewpoint then there are Canadian/british editors willing to do the opposite(this is reflected on the page). In addition, I once angered a number of editors by putting in a page reference from the wrong book, which they took as a lie and attempt to add a POV. Another time, I accidentally violated 3RR( I didn't know about the rule). Thus, I would not trust a consensus as impartial or accurate. My view is only a minority view inside the US. In Canada/Britain it is certainly a majority view. If you would like to edit an encyclopedia oriented toward the United States, I believe there is a website called "Conservapedia" which has an American flag on the main page.</blockquote> |

There is no doubt that catholic and French Lower Canada (Quebec) would not have been welcomed by many in the US nor would the addition of Florida have offset the addition of British North America in the mind's of many in the south but there is still more to the debate. J. C. A. Stagg whose writing is used in the article to deny that the US declared war to annex Canada states: "Yet there can be little doubt that, had the War of 1812 been a successful military venture, the Madison administration would have been reluctant to have returned occupied Canadian territory to the enemy." That is from his book Mr. Madison's War on page 4. |

I am going to put the quote from Stagg on the article page. You put it on your own talk page so you know it is accurate. Now the readers can read exactly what Stagg said and come to their own conclusion. Also, you removed other editors' comments from the War of 1812 talk page and that is not something you should do. Another editor has added them back. ] (]) 23:50, 15 February 2012 (UTC) |
