  • Green tickY This seems to be scattered throughout the document, so I've relisted it. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:57, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Rewrite in progress on the temp page. VernoWhitney (talk) 15:26, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Green tickY Relisting for one week to allow rewrite to complete. If not, I'll revert at that time (unless somebody else does. :)) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:44, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Judging from the other copyvios present on the contributor's user page (User:Sam004) I think review of their other articles is necessary, but I just don't have the heart right now. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:16, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Can you tell me roughly where in the pdf I should look? I've tried searching it for key terms, but it's not hitting on them for me, and I'd rather avoid reading the whole thing if i can. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:38, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
  • This has been deleted and I've cautioned the contributor strongly, but we really need to consider more review. I don't have the time right now. :) This contributor does not have extensive contribs, but I know some of the others are problems. While searching for text matches to the above, I hit Victor F. Lawson which must be evaluated, as at least the third section comes from p. 15 of the same pdf. Other text needs to be checked. Be careful, too: most of the copyvio in the above article was added after he made an attempt to clean the close paraphrase that had already been tagged. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:09, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Though I could not find an archive to confirm they predate, there's no doubt they do, as the first substantial edit to the article edited our article to change it further from the source, rather than closer to. Checking on the later influx. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:04, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
