  • @MidwestCuttlefish: the hook has inline citation, but the source is offline (not verifiable). If you still have access to the source, could you attach to hook 1 above (the original hook) a direct quote from the source that supports it? All else is fine: recent (sandbox move Nov. 6), long, cited, neutral, ref 4 is online and found no copyvio, assume good faith on refs 1 to 3, spot checks do match with this online source: [1], [2], QPQ review is done. User:MidwestCuttlefish: I edited the article, feel free to revert. Bammesk (talk) 03:00, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
I can see that snippet of 608 in Google Books. Maury Markowitz (talk) 14:47, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
@Bammesk: How does that look? Also, thanks for your edits. MidwestCuttlefish (talk) 20:10, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
That's good. I added a google-snippet link to the hook above (per user:Maury Markowitz). I found ref. 3 online, I also did some spot checks of refs 1 and 2 with google-snippets, I found some close paraphrasing, and I will look into it some more. User:MidwestCuttlefish, for example, this string is a direct copy of ref. 1: "was one of ten children of Thomas and Sarah Chambers, who were both unskilled factory workers", this string is a direct copy of ref. 3 except for the two words in italics: "Morgan led the group of Chicago women who established the Ladies' Federal Labor Union No. 2703". You can help by removing similar wording/sentence structures. Interesting article. Bammesk (talk) 04:27, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
I removed close paraphrases and edited the article, diff (I have refs 1, 3, 4, not 2, I edited sentences cited to ref 2 anyway, to remove potential paraphrase violations). Nomination is good to go. Bammesk (talk) 19:36, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Thank you! MidwestCuttlefish (talk) 19:37, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
