Plagiarism edit

With due respect to the efforts being given to add page numbers from the 1911 EB source, this article remains plagiarism start to finish. One cannot simply cut and paste content from another author/source, absent quotation marks, simply because it is out of copyright protection. This content was written by another or others, and not by a Wikipedia editor internalising and processing the content intellectually, after which a paraphrase or other unique presentation followed. This material is cribbed essentially verbatim (apart from the stray edit like mine, removing parentheses no longer the modern style). If material from the 1911 is used, it must be rewritten, citing the source. Cut and past cribs are intellectually dishonest, and set the wrong example for attentive academic readers. FInally, the page number additions are lipstick on what is a quite repugnant, odoriferous pig. 2601:246:C700:558:3042:6785:B657:CDD8 (talk) 16:08, 29 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
