Hi Pburka

I've just seen that you removed the Slavery template from the article on Bell. I'd be grateful if you could explain to me why you think it's inappropriate for this article.

Many thanks

Gillaween (talk) 15:51, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
It's always a judgment call. I would guess that someone thought it was appropriate on that page because of the significant emphasis on Knight v. Wedderburn, which appears to have been an influential case regarding slavery. Feel free to put it back if you think it makes sense, but please don't subst it. pburka (talk) 16:09, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
