 * There is clearly no copyvio: are you using the automated tool? I think it's probably highlighting sourced quotations and/or proper nouns. Let me check.Yes, yes it is. Cheers! ——  SerialNumber  54129  23:56, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, I am, but I've also checked it manually. You're correct that most of the highlights come from direct quotations, so it's not much of a copyright issue. However, I see the articles uses vastly more quotes than any other article I've seen on wikipedia, most unnecessary. It is preferable to state in paraphrase rather than in quotation that which needn't be quoted.  Ergo Sum  00:13, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
