Close paraphrasing
[edit]Via the duplication detector report, I count:
- Duplicated direct quote from 5 March 1990 New York Times article, properly attributed
- Duplicated direct quote from 1965 Charlie Cobb poem, properly attributed
- Duplicated proper names (his children's names )
- Duplicated proper name ("Committee on Appeal for Human Rights")
- Duplicated proper name ("East Point/South Fulton High School")
- Duplicated proper name ("Lowndes County Freedom Organization")
- Duplicated phrase ("suffered a massive heart attack")
- Duplicated direct quote from 5 March 1990 New York Times Article, properly attributed
- Duplicated proper name ("The Selma to Montgomery March")
- Duplicated standard obituary text ("survived by his wife")
- Duplicated website name ("Civil Rights Movement Veterans")
- Duplicated proper name ("The Atlanta Student Movement")
- Duplicated proper name ("The Edmund Pettus Bridge")
... &tc. I believe that it's fair use and not possible to avoid duplicating certain phrases (many proper names and direct quotations). I will admit that "suffered a massive heart attack" is too close and will change that, though. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 18:48, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
- I reran the article through Earwig's copyvio detector, which gives, with a 24.2% confidence, that copyright violation is unlikely with the SNCC Legacy page. The remaining phrases are almost all proper nouns linking to specific articles on Wikipedia. Nevertheless, as I have a conflict of interest, I will not remove the close paraphrasing tag.
