21:0821:08, 26 January 2016 diff hist −116‎ m Hendrik S. Houthakker ‎ Deleted description of Houthakker as a "Jewish-Dutch American economist." I am not aware that Wikipedia describes others as a "Catholic-Cuban American economist" or a "Lutheran-German American economist."

01:4601:46, 28 July 2015 diff hist +825‎ Fruehauf Trailer Corporation ‎ corrected association with Sea-Land; inserted mention of indictment and dismissal.

20:5620:56, 12 July 2015 diff hist −4,382‎ Malcom McLean ‎ Removed public relations material related to Fruehauf trailer, some of it inaccurate and some of it not relevant to topic of this article, which is not the Fruehauf Company.

20:2020:20, 19 October 2013 diff hist +1,225‎ Carl R. Byoir ‎ added citation on Byoir's work in Cuba, detail of his work for A&P, and citation regarding that work.

17:4317:43, 1 January 2013 diff hist +236‎ m Huntington Hartford ‎ Corrected statement (appearing twice) that he was the heir to the A&P fortune; in fact, he was only one of several heirs. Added source.

15:5115:51, 4 April 2009 diff hist −151‎ White Pass and Yukon Route ‎ Corrected error claiming Rogers was first containership and also claim that early WP&YR containers could be sent anywhere around the world, which was not true.

14:5114:51, 28 September 2008 diff hist −516‎ Malcom McLean ‎ Deleted the story of McLean sitting in his truck at the dock and coming up with the idea of containerization. There is no evidence supporting this tale. Moved some text higher for better read.

01:0601:06, 9 October 2006 diff hist +221‎ Containerization ‎ Reorganized for readability; deleted claim that containerisation is a "canadian innovation," which is flatly untrue.
