Captions?

There are some lines in this article that very much appear to be captions. Are they supposed to be there, or were they possibly copied in by error?Young Skywalker 17:38, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

POV?

This article reads to me as intended to be a vindication of Wingfield. Nothing wrong with a vindication, but it out to be a chapter of the article, not the article itself. IOW, I think this has a POV problem. (btw - I am not passing judgement on Wingfield). Anybody else see that? Also, the link to the "First Landing" movie seems to go to a sci-fi movie...???

Many years later - but I was most surprised to see the POV in the lead paragraphs. I have read several articles and excerpts about Wingfield in recent years and none of them picture him in such glowing terms. Donner60 (talk) 09:30, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

First election/First Persident in present day USA

This is an interesting claim, but unfortunately there is no citation to back it up, it seems more like an assumption that historical fact, I will delete it but if anyone can find a source, by all means restore it Bennyj600 (talk) 16:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

The Article appears to be Anti-Catholic and prejudiced. The Author seems extremely concerned because Wingfield had the middle name of "Maria" which might imply he had been a bloody Catholic and a traitor to his master King Henry VIII, a secular ruler, who decided he was the head of the English Church and therefore entitled to the looting of the Churches and Monasteries of England for his personal profit.
