Please edit "Episcopalean" to "episcopalean".[edit]
Please edit "Episcopalian" to "episcopalian".
Use of the capital creates ambiguity with the Episcopalian Church - i.e. the Anglican Church in the US - esp for readers from the US.
Current code:-
It was designed to check the powers of the executive, to set up regularly elected parliaments, and to restore a non-compulsory Episcopalian settlement.

The phrase "the brutality of his campaign in Ireland" should be removed. Modern historians have argued the atrocities happened under the direction of other generals, after Cromwell had returned to England. (2A00:23C5:C416:A601:8D10:7F9F:F317:B65F (talk) 11:54, 17 March 2024 (UTC))[reply]
to dispute those things, we need presentations from credible historians or experts in 17th British history field that could help ur concern regarding Cromwell's conduct in Ireland Ahendra (talk) 09:26, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"The debate over his historical reputation continues."[edit]
Completely reasonable statement, but why does it matter what Churchill thought of him? 142.126.146.180 (talk) 23:16, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The line on his opposition of the Quakers is at odds with Quakers. The evidence is that Cromwell was friendly with George Fox. Pakbelang (talk) 07:03, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Similarly with Fifth Monarchists, considering how closely he worked with Major-General Harrison. I guess there are many shades and kinds of opposition. Cromwell's approach was always to try to keep together as much of the fissiparous Puritan coalition as possible. But it would be interesting to see what Worden (the source for both claims) actually says.
With the Quakers, he also opposed the punishment of Nayler by the Second Protectorate Parliament, but in the end gave way. Generally, it was Parliament, not Cromwell, that took a narrow approach to religion, but it all tends to get personalised to Cromwell. GarethAd (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
