Marriage

Cannot see any evidence of her marrying, as mentioned in article. GrahamBould (talk) 19:27, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's referenced now. The wikiservers barfed while I was working on it and I lost half an edit. 8-( Andy Dingley (talk) 19:35, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problem

This article has been revised as part of the large-scale clean-up project of a massive copyright infringement on Wikipedia. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

For more information on this situation, which involved a single contributor liberally copying material from print and internet sources into several thousand articles, please see the two administrators' noticeboard discussions of the matter, here and here, as well as the the cleanup task force subpage. Thank you. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 01:11, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your efforts in clearing this up (I'm so glad I don't do snails!). I've got an (as yet unread) copy of the one likely source book (Queen of Whale Cay) and the few other useful print sources, so when I have time I'll try to get through this article and restore as much of the useful content as possible, without copyvio.

Jack Stripes

Marion Carstairs also spent considerable sums of money on building boats intended to make a fast cross Atlantic run. The last and fastest of these was "Jack Stripes".

Pronouns

Marion Barbara Carstairs chose to be called Joe. She wore men’s clothing specifically designed to diminish her bust. She would also walk about her island wearing a false mustache. It is possible that, were she alive today, she would identify as a transgender man. However, Joe referred to herself as a woman and so, for the purposes of this post and for the sake of not making an assumption, I have as well. https://blog.marinersmuseum.org/2020/09/not-your-average-joe/ Oathed (talk) 01:04, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
