Moving from my talk page, paraphrased conversation with editor: In terms of word 'mismanaged' in the intro, I am not sure the the source referenced backs that up. It seems clear that they never really had much food to begin with, then they tried to steal food? Perhaps more appropriate is the inability to secure a self-sufficient food source? I am not sure that they can mismanage something that they don't have? -- Lucas20 ( talk) 01:03, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Looking at citation six, specifically the sentence "Weston was associated with the Plymouth Council for New England which, fifteen years prior, had funded the short-lived Popham Colony in modern Maine." This is either an uncited sentence or miscited.
Also, not sure why the notes do not follow sequential order in the article. -- Lucas20 ( talk) 01:03, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
