- But there is only so many ways to rewrite a sentence like; "In Harbin, China, the first water guiding mechanism of the Baihetan Hydro-generator Unit passed acceptance inspection on October 27, 2018" I can't go change the dates nor the location nor the name of the machine nor change what it achieved that day. There is only so many limited ways to change it and I think I did an okay job considering. I will try to rewrite it now but hope me simply stating the same location, date, same machine, same test, is not misjudged as copyright. LastKeySoraya (talk) 14:58, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
- Some of the less important details can be omitted. But it doesn't matter if it's important information or not; you can't add it if you have to violate our copyright policy to do so. — Diannaa (talk) 15:25, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
- Understandable. I now redid them and altered it as best as I reasonably could. Examples are like from sentence above; The manufacturing of the first water guiding mechanism in the Baihetan Hydro-generator units was completed in Harbin, where it both passed inspection and awarded approval on October 27, 2018. I think it's acceptably different enough now.[1] [2] [3] [4]. LastKeySoraya (talk) 17:17, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
- The new version checks out okay from a copyright point of view. Thanks for taking the time to do that. — Diannaa (talk) 17:25, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
