The article is essentially a copy of the equivalent, very long article in the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, with a few subsequent interpolations. The Earwig copyvio tool marks it as 97.7% a copy, although the second paragraph of Bills of lading is new, and large parts of the EB1911 article are not copied. Strictly, each paragraph should be footnoted as such (with a small number of {{citation needed}} tags) but that would be a tedious task and add little value. For now, the {{EB1911}} will have to stand as an acknowledgment. David Brooks (talk) 23:27, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
