• Too short by 400 chars. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:27, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
  • I think I'm there now, thanks.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 14:01, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
• Hook: Interesting enough, short enough, cited.

Article: New enough, long enough. Cause of death not cited. Spotchecks show some paraphrasing issues.

Summary: Please add a reference for the cause of death and eliminate the close paraphrasing. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:40, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Done. I changed it to just that "he died". His obituary lists "peacefully", but I know it was a heart attack and outside of forum postings, I could not find a reliable source listing it as such. I will check a few knife magazines from 2005 tonight to see if they listed cause of death. I changed the lists of materials around, but am not sure if it will still look like paraphrasing. For the record, I did not copy and paste anything and some of what is termed as close paraphrasing in what you showed me appears coincidental. I think this is a hazard of "summary style", there's only so many ways you can say certain things.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 16:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

• I know, especially when it comes to the names of companies and whatnot (you can't say it any other way). I didn't think it was that bad, but it's always best to be safe than sorry. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:59, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
