Close paraphrasing
Hi! I wanted to give you a warning about the close paraphrasing at Louis T. Wright. I can see where you were trying to make it different from the source material, however it was still just too closely paraphrased. A good way to avoid this is to take notes on the material and then add to the article based on your notes. The reason that you must be careful about this is that close paraphrasing is considered to be a form of plagiarism and is also a copyright issue. I'd like for you to review the module on plagiarism before proceeding further, thanks. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:17, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
