"0 allixpeeke (talk) 21:31, 23 August 2014 (UTC) I here present four reasons for my ranking, in the order of importance, where A is the most important reason and D the least important reason. (A) I don't want to see slavery tried on anyone, not even those who argue for it. (B) Lincoln was an American. Quoting a Brit would make more sense, as AllanHainey suggests above. (C) I am of the understanding that the United Kingdom abolished slavery without resorting to war. Lincoln, by contrast, resorted to war in order to protect northern business interests, and only pretended to abolish slavery in territories over which he had zero control as a war tactic, and that didn't happen until years into the war. Slavery wasn't actually abolished in the States until the thirteenth amendment was ratified, which happened after the war. The United Kingdom, since it did not resort of violence, ended slavery in an infinitely better way than the United States. (D) AllanHainey says there is a discrepancy on the actual date."

"1 allixpeeke (talk) 21:31, 23 August 2014 (UTC) I have no objection to using a quote from a movie (so long as it is clearly attributed to the character in the film and not the actual person), but why this quote? It says nothing meaningful. In the very same scene, he says, "I am William Wallace! And I see a whole army of my country men here in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?" Would that not be an infinitely better quote to use?"
