Cost of Publication [ edit ]

I was wondering if the cost of keeping up production of the Liberator should be discussed? I found that many African American newspapers early on in the Antebellum period had minimum income due to the lack of literate African Americans and a small middle class. Many publications such as the Liberator, Frederick Douglass' Paper, and The Provincial Freeman held bazaars, festivals, and gatherings for fund raising to help support the paper.

title [ edit ]

I was considering removing the "(anti-slavery newspaper)" from the title. Is there a reason that it is there that I might not be aware of? Jamisenrose ( talk ) 04:50, 15 May 2017 (UTC) [ reply ]

Orphaned references in The Liberator (newspaper) [ edit ]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Liberator (newspaper) 's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Thomas":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ? 09:33, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ]

Antisemitism [ edit ]

Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. Did he write about his antisemitic views in the Liberator ? If yes, it should be a section of the article. If not, it should be a section of William Lloyd Garrison . I'm concerned that including it in the lede here gives the topic undue weight relative to the overall topic of The Liberator , an abolitionist newspaper of the United States" jengod ( talk ) 16:34, 7 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ]

I tend to agree that without more explanation on how it relates to the newspaper, it's an WP:UNDUE addition. -- Onorem ( talk ) 20:02, 7 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ]
