Bit short edit

is there anymore information on this?

Agreed - this neds to be vastly expanded. It's a shamefully undereported page of British history. Sad how negative chapters from all nation's pasts get much more discussion and coverage —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.161.244.202 (talk) 17:51, 14 December 2007 (UTC)Reply


I wrote my undergrad dissertation on British slave trade suppression on the African Coast, you can't reference the dissertation itself as wiki doesn't allow 'own work' which I think it will be classified under. But you can steal the references and narrative elements.

On this copy I haven't done the references yet, so at the bottom of the page there is just a list. Ask me if you see anything quoted and I will be able to give you the reference for it. I am working on adding all the references, but it will take a long time.

Thanks Fdsdh1. If you wish, please go ahead and edit the article, anyone can edit it and add the references to appropriate sources as you describe. Whizz40 (talk) 06:18, 23 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Translating edit

Is there a tool to transfer an article into another language including principal structure an references? It's a pity that this article is not available in German. Heilongjian (talk) 17:42, 3 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
