Quote as written by Ruskin?
[edit]Under the heading "Versions with variant wording," the quotation that begins the section is said to be "attributed to ... Ruskin," and the next sentence says "It is stated here as written by Ruskin." How can one say how it was written by Ruskin if there's no evidence that it was written by Ruskin at all? In fact that's not the original wording, whoever wrote it. No careful writer would ever write it that way. It begins with a passive construction, and ends with a reference to "that man." What man? No man was mentioned previously in the sentence. In a previous version of the article that quote had taken an active form: "... that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper," and in that form "that man" has something to refer to. Why was that changed? Marty39 (talk) 12:51, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- I have removed the sentence "It is stated here as written by Ruskin." which as you say is illogical since there is no evidence that Ruskin actually wrote this text. Tony 1212 (talk) 19:27, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
