Talk:Jake Witt

Close paraphrasing issues
Hi all, while I love to see articles about people who attended my small alma mater, there's some issues with close paraphrasing/substantial similarity that the DYK nomination did not address. In addition, the quotations added for the previously detected close paraphrasing should probably be attributed in the text per MOS:QUOTE.

I've listed a couple of the additional close paraphrasing below, and there's more substantial similarities to the Athletic piece in the article.


 * Article: "He grew up in the small town of Bruce Crossing, Michigan which is located south of Lake Superior by approximately 30 minutes, and east of Duluth by three hours."
 * Source: "Witt grew up in Bruce Crossing, a small Michigan town about 30 minutes south of Lake Superior, three hours east of Duluth, Minn ..."


 * Article: "It took "five or six" practice repetitions for him to get the correct stance, and that was the only preparation Witt had before he went up against undefeated Ferris State and their lineman Caleb Murphy, among the top players in Division II."
 * Source: "Donning his new No. 65 jersey, Witt said he took “five or six” practice reps to get his stance right before Northern Michigan headed into the second half against Ferris State. That was all the preparation he had for his O-line introduction against the undefeated Bulldogs and pass rusher Caleb Murphy, one of the best players at the Division II level and a projected draft pick this April."
