• ... that British midwife and bestselling author Jennifer Worth criticized Mike Leigh's 2004 film Vera Drake for depicting an "invariably fatal" method of abortion as quick and painless for women?

• Size, hook size (191 characters) and sourcing all check out. – Muboshgu (talk) 04:39, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

• Reviewed: Abolition of serfdom in Poland

I'm concerned that some of the phrasing in this article might be too close to that used by this source. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:08, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Hmm. Let me give that a closer look. – Muboshgu (talk)

Based on the duplication report, Nikkimaria is right. The article needs to be rewritten to conform to policy on copyrights and close paraphrasing. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:24, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

• Text is essentially untouched since a week ago. Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:03, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Other people can rewrite this, though. Am I allowed to, or is that COI? – Muboshgu (talk) 22:18, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
    • You can rewrite it... I'll pick up the review. Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:23, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
      • Great. It seems a shame to fail a nomination that is fixable due to inactivity. I'll rewrite it tonight. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:34, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

I've rewritten parts that were plagiarized. The duplication detector now shows phrases, such as the titles of her books and positions she's held, which can't be rewritten. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:02, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

• Length and age good, hook is fine. Referencing is good, accepting the blog as a self-published source. Paraphrasing seems fine. Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:22, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
