 * Is there anything for me to do here? Cheers MisterBee1966 (talk) 11:09, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Pardon me if I was unclear here, Mr. Bee, but I thought you would like a chance to deal with those paraphrases before the article went DYK. Please note, that as part of AGF, that I assume these paraphrases are inadvertent echoes of research.Georgejdorner (talk) 18:56, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks, I reworded it slightly, commenting on the first two links (Günther Lützow Explained and Project Gutenberg), it is a bit of a "who was first" problem. I believe these two links point to derivatives of an earlier version of the article I wrote here on Wikipedia. Regarding "Lützow was born on 4 September 1912 in Kiel," have a look at Anthony McAuliffe or Douglas MacArthur, they all use phrases like "X was born on Y in/at Z". Do you have a suggestion on how to rephrase? MisterBee1966 (talk) 08:24, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg As I remarked above, not much wiggle room on that particular rephrasing. I was hoping you were more ingenious than I and could rewrite it. Never mind. To take care of the technicalities, ALT2 is approved as a new hook, the paraphrasing issue is addressed, and this is GTG.Georgejdorner (talk) 17:33, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Just a quick follow-up note: Project Gutenberg and "Everything Explained" are both indeed known mirrors of the content here, and both provide clear credit to the Wikipedia article. Kuru   (talk)  17:38, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
