I wrote the article "Battle of Cut Knife" myself. It contains no copyrighted information.

Edits - removed Metis responsibility for looting

[edit]

I have edited this article and removed the section claiming that Metis were responsible for the looting and burning in Battleford. This is a modern fiction that is not supported by any source from the time; in fact, a large party of local Metis took shelter in the Fort, and some served in the Battleford Rifles and the Battleford Home Guard.

Inaccurate citation

[edit]

'Otter and most of his soldiers survived their battle and emerged with a new respect for native warriors.[12]'

The source does not say anything about this. Perhaps a different page of the (non-NPOV) source should be found? 206.47.112.125 (talk) 14:12, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

William Otter

[edit]

I don't know how to fix it, as I am just a user of Wikipedia, but the link for William Otter links to the wrong William Otter. Someone with the knowledge should perhaps fix this. 142.162.165.30 (talk) 14:13, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it. Thank you for pointing it out. Indefatigable (talk) 16:04, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
