Info about close paraphrasing

The article looks extremely much like the article to be found at Ann Long Fine Art. It is too close for comfort and it should be a more original text. Night of the Big Wind _talk 09:33, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see close paraphrasing to that article here. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 15:19, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Several of the identified phrases are legitimate, such as the quoted name of an exhibition catalog, "Otto Neumann: His Life and Work", or use of a proper name, such as "at the University of Heidelberg". Others are very common phrases, such as "of the human figure" and "early years as a professional artist". The vast majority of the content is very different, but may possibly be paraphrased from David Sokol's published writing about Neumann, since Sokol seems to be the expert on him. In an abundance of caution, I have rewritten many of these phrases, and have also broken the article into sections and started to Wikify it. Perhaps you may want to express your concerns on the new editor's user page, or at Wikipedia:Requests for feedback/2011 September 6. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 20:37, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
