Hi, I have done about as much as I think I can handle. KingLeonid1 (talk) 20:50, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Great job! Since the article is at 1,068 words, and since you have contributed 7,146 characters, you have been awarded The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar. However, the bounty is still open for anyone who wants to improve the article to GA. In addition, anyone willing to clean up the sources to increase text–source integrity will receive an additional Cleanup Barnstar. In most cases, sources should be cited by the end of the sentence or paragraph. Thank you! Spookyaki (talk) 21:17, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, sorry. Ran a copyvio check, which caught a lot of plagiarized text from the UNITAD report. Thank you for your work, but please see Wikipedia:Plagiarism and ensure that you correctly follow Wikipedia's guidelines in the future. Spookyaki (talk) 21:32, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Does this not take into account citations? I added them as often as possible so it was clear :( KingLeonid1 (talk) 21:36, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So the issue was that there were large portions of article that were copy-pasted directly from the text. In general, it's better to paraphrase using your own words. If you do use words copied directly from the text, you must include quotation marks and ideally some kind of in-text attribution (see Avoiding plagiarism). You should also keep directly quoted text to a minimum. It seems like it was an honest mistake, so I hope this doesn't discourage you too much, and if you'd like to take another crack at it, the bounty is still open to you. Just something to keep in mind. Plagiarism is pretty serious, and plagiarized text generally must be removed as quickly as possible from articles. I'm also sorry, because I should have run the copyvio check before awarding the barnstar.

In the future, you can use a copyvio check as a baseline measure to determine whether text is plagiarized. I would also generally cite text no later than the end of a sentence/paragraph to make it as clear as possible where information is coming from (see Text–source integrity).
