New Wiki user, & not a George scholar: upon reading the “Slavery” section someone called “Pitt” is referenced without first name or understanding of who that is. Reference should be fleshed out. I will leave amendements to someone more invested & certain than me. Putzac (talk) 17:07, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Following the suggestion in MOS:NOFORCELINK: just a very short bit of context so as "not [to] force a reader to use that link to understand the sentence", making it easier for users reading in print or otherwise offline.--AntientNestor (talk) 16:56, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Very true - and not contradicted by this article, which states that George was the longest reigning male monarch. KJP1 (talk) 06:12, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When Pitt came to office in December 1784, George III was desperate. Replying to a letter from Pitt regarding permission for certain ministerial appointments to take place the King replied that 'To one on the Edge of a Precipice every ray of hope must be pleasing'.[1]
While written by an historian, we don't usually use self-published sources or sources that are focused on people other than George III. DrKay (talk) 19:08, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
