 * I suggest you should read WP:Lead which states: "The presence of citations in the introduction is neither required in every article nor prohibited in any article." Would you mention the sentences in the lead which are not verified in the main text? Borsoka (talk) 02:51, 20 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Please also study the list generated by Earwig's Copyvio Detector . The use of the titles of the referred sources can hardly be described as copyvio. I would be gratefil if you listed other cases of close paraphrasing that you found. Borsoka (talk) 02:51, 20 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Why do you think that the article is too short? Could you mention some relevant details of Vlad's life which were ignored? Borsoka (talk) 02:51, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
 * There are no problems with plagarism, I just put the score there as a little reminder to myself. As for the lead section, I guess I'm just used to seeing citations being used in the lead. Sparkling Pessimist   Scream at me!  03:12, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Please take a look at the following GAs: 'Adud al-Dawla, Ælfwald of East Anglia, Andrianampoinimerina, Berengaria of Castile, Harald Hardrada, etc. I think we can conclude that the sentences in the lead are rarely verified by in-line citations. Borsoka (talk) 03:28, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
