 * Atlantic slave trade ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from The Royal Navy and the Battle to End Slavery (BBC)
 * I just found a few sentences that closely matched a source. There were several passages which were close in wording to the source which is described as "Last updated 2011-02-17", but does not have a first appeared date. I suspect the BBC article is probably about four years older because it says it draws upon an article in Representing Slavery: Art, Artefacts and Archives in the Collections of the National Maritime Museum and describes the 2007 work as forthcoming. The wording was introduced to the article on 7 June 2007 and the references two days later. I'm reasonably sure there is excessive copying of the one source I read. Since several passages were introduced from several sources, I think an investigation is warranted. I made several changes to the existing passages before examining the article and source histories, but I'm not sure they were sufficient. More eyes and opinions would definitely be of use.

 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Source article was consolidated at some point from a 7-page version to today's one-page version, but the content is the same. Every word of his addition was checked, and other sources were also located. --— Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 00:51, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
