Too-close paraphrasing[edit]

Here are two small areas of problematic article text that must be given a rewrite to comply with Wikipedia's copyright rules:

Article text

The castle was rebuilt at least three times over the years, following the standard square form as seen throughout Ayrshire.

Source text

Over the centuries it was rebuilt three times, in the same square design as seen at Dundonald Castle.

Article text

The ruins today mainly represent the dungeon of the old castle.

Source text

All that remains today is the Castle's dungeon.

The rest of the text appears to me to be satisfactory. Binksternet (talk) 23:21, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There we go chaps - paraphrasing attended to. Rosser Gruffydd 12:02, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

Location[edit]

It seems this is wrongly listed as being in North Ayrshire in the North Ayrshire Towns and Settlements directory. AyrshireNeil (talk) 22:51, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
