(

... that the Sixth Asian Science Camp, hosted by Israel in Jerusalem, is the largest Asian Science Camp event to date?

I think the article is good to go. It had around 2,000 characters in length. The hook was confirmed by a reliable source. Arius1998 (talk) 03:03, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Overly close paraphrasing has been used. Compare, for instance, "The project was developed by two Nobel Prize recipients from Taiwan and South Korea" in the article to "a project developed by two Nobel Prize winners from Taiwan and South Korea" in this source, and the article's "scientists in a diverse range of fields, including biology, physics, genetics, mathematics, and space travel. In addition, the event will feature a creative poster competition" vs. "scientists in a variety of fields, including biology, physics, genetics, mathematics, space travel" ... "the event will feature a creative poster competition". These are not the only ones from this article, and at least one other article is a source of problematic text: both "to enlighten science-talented youths" and "promote international friendship and cooperation" are identical in the article and this source. The article's author should check all sources to make sure all close paraphrasing is eliminated. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'll attempt to fix it soon. --Activism1234 22:18, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

I'm fixing it up now. I'll let you know when I finish. --Activism1234 04:06, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

I believe I've taken care of all the issues. --Activism1234 04:16, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

The last paragraph of Students still needs a bit of reworking, or you could quote directly. Nikkimaria (talk) 12:51, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

I think I've fixed it - how is it now? --Activism1234 05:57, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Better, but still needs some editing, or quoting. Nikkimaria (talk) 12:05, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
