Template talk:Continental Congress

Is there a reason why all the documents have their names in quotation marks, except for some reason the Model Treaty? It's not customary to enclose the names of documents of state in quotation marks, and IMHO it looks pretty weird. Would anyone object to their removal?

Having just re-ordered the lines (Move Lee Resolution to above Declaration of Independence for chrono, as well as for its contents, which initiated the next items in list) per the edit summary, I question why the Declaration of Independence alone is bolded. Worthington C. Ford in his Prefatory Note to the Journals of the Continental Congress, 1774-1789, states: "The year 1776 includes some of the most important acts and papers of the Continental Congress. The Declaration of Independence, the first forms of the Articles of Confederation, and the plan of treaties with foreign Powers were of high moment; and any one of these papers, when measured by results or consequences would be sufficient to distinguish the legislation of this year." Based of this, either all or none on these should be emphasized. Comments? Regards, CasualObserver'48 (talk) 04:42, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The ones in Albany and New York were important precedents, and without the Stamp Act Congress, the "First" Continental Congress congress couldn't have been called. Arglebargle79 (talk) 17:14, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
