Talk:James I

Arithmetic
The second-last paragraph of the biography (beginning "Upon his death in 1625") has "... until his execution on 30 January 1649. (PROSE: The Roundheads) More than sixty years after his death, his grandson James II was overthrown in the Glorious Revolution in November 1688."

1688 is 39 years after 1649, not "More than sixty".

"More than sixty" ought to be changed to "Almost forty". --92.17.53.23talk to me 19:24, January 3, 2020 (UTC)
 * The article is about James, so maybe it means more than sixty years after his death? Shambala108 ☎  19:26, January 3, 2020 (UTC)


 * That fits the arithmetic, so you're probably right. In that case, "after his death" should be changed to "after James I's death", for clarity. As it is, "his" can be read as referring to Charles I. --92.17.53.23talk to me 19:33, January 3, 2020 (UTC)
