• The article has been 5x expanded. The photo is currently not permissible, as OTRS hasn't signed off on it as yet. There are significant close paraphrasing concerns.

• Article: "He received honorary awards from the Wisconsin Mental Health Association, the Office of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Association for Marriage and Family Therapy."
• Source: "Dr. Treffert has received honorary awards from the Wisconsin Mental Health Association, the Office of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Association for Marriage and Family Therapy."

• I've only looked at the first source, and the list of close paraphrasing is rather long. Schwede66 10:23, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

• Hi, I have personal permission from the professor to use the text and photo. If that's still a problem, I am ok with dropping the nomination, thanks. --RexRowanTalk 10:32, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

• You don't have to drop your submission, but 'having personal permission' by itself isn't good enough. There's a formal process to go through, and you can read up on it at WP:COPYREQ. Schwede66 18:39, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

• Author/nominator has today resigned as an editor on his talk page; rejecting this article due to previously noted close paraphrasing concerns. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:04, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
