Talk:History of English land law

Attribution for starting text

@Wikidea: As I was reading this very interesting article, I was struck by the archaic language in some places. Digging around I see that at some points in its history it has been marked as copied from the 1911 Encyclopedia Brittanica. That's fine; I just wanted to attribute content to the right sources. However, I searched the old Brittanica and couldn't find the source article, which the attribution template requires. For the first revision and large additions, do you remember where you got this content from? Is it in fact from the 1911 EB, or some other source, or is it all original? Thanks! -- Beland (talk) 16:09, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi Beland, basically if it's got footnotes, it was probably me writing - and where it doesn't it's probably cut and pasted from Britannica. I don't remember if I moved this from somewhere else, etc, but if you want to improve please feel free! Wikidea 16:17, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

The “Roman Law” section

Does this paragraph have any meaning? Well of course it does, but it needs someone who understands it to rewrite it so mere mortals have a chance…. 90.254.23.189 (talk) 22:35, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
