Some of the text on this page was from [1]. It looks to not be a copyvio since that page sources Wikipedia for some other text and the author's name seems the same as the username that added the text here. The text was, however, redundant and unencyclopedic in tone, so it has been removed. DopefishJustin (・∀・) 05:13, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The British East India Company

The source for the claims regarding the British treatment of the Bengali weavers should be cited. I assume that a reliable source exists. I've done a little bit of searching but haven't located it yet. (I see it mentioned as a legend in one or two books, but I don't see any primary-source documentation, only recent works that don't cite their own sources.) If we can't find the source, the anecdote should be deleted from the page.
