An author whose writing is "in the public ___domain" none-the-less remains the author and is due recognition through use of quotation marks or other acceptable style. This article seems to assume that public ___domain means text can be freely lifted and dropped in without attribution. This here is not a case where some short familiar phrase is going uncredited; the entire section "England and Great Britain" is clearly taken verbatim from some 100 year old text. I hope this carelessness does not reflect a policy. GeeBee60 (talk) 14:16, 17 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
