A fact from Canaqueese appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 14 March 2009, and was viewed approximately 2,820 times (disclaimer) (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that the Canadian Mohawk chief, the Flemish Bastard, was considered the primary spokesman for the pro-French faction of Canada in the 17th century?
This article contains numerous incomplete or inaccurate citations, is repetitive, contains irrelevant details, and relies far too much on the work of Mark Meuwese. The citations for Meuwese's PhD thesis failed verification. The page numbers recorded may actually refer to Meuwese's article in Lines Drawn upon the Water which was incorrectly attributed to the book's editor, Karl Hele. The relevance of the background section is unclear as the paragraph has more to with changes in historical perspective than with Canaqueese. References are made to the First French-Iroquois War and the Beaver Wars, however, it is not made clear that the First French-Iroquois War was an aspect of the Beaver Wars. Reference is also made to the Mourning Wars without explanation. Revisions are in progress. Additional citations to sources other than Meuwese will be added as needed.
