Overall status
Beginning review, more to come. --Xover (talk) 20:34, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Given the apparent extensive copyright violation in this article (5 sections, quite literally half the article, are in whole or in part verbatim copies of various web pages; who knows how much has been copied from offline sources), I'm not going to bother reviewing it in detail.

I'm quickfailing this review. Please feel free to renominate once you've resolved the copyright violations in the article. --Xover (talk) 21:09, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Detailed points

 * Lede

 * Large portions of the lede is copied verbatim from poetryfoundation.org and as such is a copyright violation. The entire section will have to be rewritten from scratch.


 * Paraphrase
 * Parts of this section bear suspicious similarity to shakespeares-sonnets.com and as such may be a borderline copyright violation.
