== Corrections made == |
|
|
I made three changes to the main article on 1/25/2005. |
|
|
1) corrected the assertion that Czolgosz had a nervous breakdown. There was no diagnosis made and no way to really determine whether this was the case. |
|
|
2) corrected "speeches" of Goldman to one speech which is all that he is known to have attended. |
|
|
3) added "as far as we know" to point about LC not belonging to any groups. He left home in July, traveled between Cleveland, Buffalo, and Chicago for six weeks. Little is known about his activities or associations during that time. |
|
|
These and other matters are treated in depth in a fictional context in my historical novel The Anarchist (Willowbrook Press, 2001). The book includes end notes with a discussion of materials available to researchers. |

== ''Free Society'' quote == |
|
|
I added the quote from the ''Free Society'' ] thinking that it was useful to show that his fascination with violent ] forced the rest of the ] ] to not trust him. Adios ] |
|
|
|
|
|
== Second to last paragraph == |
|
|
Shouldn't the paragraph about the gun Czolgosz used be moved to earlier in the article? Is the serial number of the gun relevant at all? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
==Assassins== |
|
== Family origin == |
|
I don't think the comment of Guiteau being alive at the time of McKinleys assassination in the section on Sondheim's musical is accurate. Their is not a strict chronology to this play, and the assassins can interact with each other regardless of the period of their lives. Later in the play, for example, the assassins who came ''after'' Oswald plead with him to kill Kennedy in order to make their acts mean something. |

The "Belarussian-Jewish" story referenced in the article is completely made up. American and Polish genealogists have pinpointed the wedding of Paul Czolgosz and Mary Nowak to the church in Strzelce near Inowroclaw, Poland. Their marriage record is registered under #1 in 1867 in the marriage register of the Strzelce parish. Czolgosz is a rare Polish name only existing in this corner of Poland. The Czolgoszes settled in Alpena, Michigan among many other Catholic Polish families coming from Prussian Poland in the same period. ] (]) 14:10, 16 February 2024 (UTC) |

== Electrocution film == |
|
|
The actual event wasn't filmed, it was a reconstruction. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Burial location??? == |
|
== Error in opening sentence of lead == |
|
|
The opening sentence of the lead says that Leon Czolgosz assassinated President McKinley on September 6, 1901. THAT IS FALSE INFORMATION because McKinley died on September 14, 1901. A person cannot be assassinated (killed) eight days before his death. You have two options from this point; correct the error or let it stand.] (]) 14:18, 13 November 2019 (UTC) |

The article has two contradictory sentences. I cannot read the sources due to subscription required. Hoping someone has more info or resources that can Clear this up. |
|
: Seems reasonable to me to describe it as assassination, with the victim dying 8 days later from wounds. ] (]) 11:52, 7 May 2020 (UTC) |

1. (Trial and Execution) The body was buried on prison grounds following the autopsy. |
|
:: If it isn't false, it is misleading in that it does suggest that McKinley died instantly. It would be clearer to write something like, "... shot American President William McKinley on September 6, 1901, in Buffalo, New York. McKinley died from his wound 8 days later." --] (]) 13:49, 23 October 2020 (UTC) |

2. (Legacy) Czolgosz is buried at Soule Cemetery in Cayuga County, New York. ] (]) 12:22, 26 May 2024 (UTC) |
|
== Execution redundancy == |
|
|
In a relatively small text box, "execution in the electric chair" is mentioned THREE times- not to mention the repeated use in the main text body. Isn't this a rather redundant example of overkill? ] (]) 03:10, 28 August 2020 (UTC) |
