Why was Daniel shays wanted?
Daniel Shays was wanted for resisting the governments of multiple states, and attacking different towns in hope of anarchy and recognization for his plunder by the government. He mainly wanted to sack and burn Boston, so the upper powers had fear of being overthrown, and for their lives. Another tale is that a sheriff brought around Daniel Shays criminal record when he shot Daniel's prize pony. This gave Shays a motive for stealing horses across states, a different way (apart from his rebellion) that he was known as a criminal.

What Rebellion caused the leaders finally to call for a Constitutional Convention?
OK so here's how it really happened. Shays Rebellion- All of the farmers rebelled because the government was not helping them financially. They burned down government buildings. Congress had no right to stop them and had no control over them according to the Articles of Confederation, so they just watched the in terror. THIS BROUGHT EVERYONE TO REALIZE THAT THE ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION WAS TOO WEAK. The convention was called to fix it but we realized that it had too many flaws and just created a new constitution. Hoped that helped :)

What is Daniel Shays best remembered for?
Shays led a group of farmers in an aborted revolt known as Shays' Rebellion. Angry over foreclosures caused largely by the government's failure under the Articles of Confederation to pay wages owed to Revolutionary War soldiers, farmers attempted to raid a federal arsenal but were turned back by a private army (hired because Congress hadn't paid the current national army at the time either and was terrified of the risk that they too would revolt). Though Shays didn't immediately succeed, his rebellion did create the catalyst needed to bring delegates to Philadelphia for what would become known as the Constitutional Convention.
