On the wiki for "the Case of Charles Dexter Ward" it's noted that Joseph Curwen was driven from Salem in 1692. This wiki explains "the burning of a certain Salem man's library in 1692" and explains it by referencing the salem witch trials - Can we reference the Charles Dexter Ward story instead? I'm blocked by the page's protected status from doing so myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.244.243.96 (talk) 19:27, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When describing the passage quoted in The Dunwich Horror, the article says "The Necronomicon passage in question states:", implying this is the passage Whateley was looking for. The book only says this was on the same spread as he was copying from; in context it's clear he's looking for a chant or incantation, not background information. I suggest replacing this with "The Necronomicon introduces the incantation with this passage:" 82.12.148.203 (talk) 16:18, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
