[edit]

I have reverted large updates by User:Whizz40 such as this. My reason is that some of the phrasing seems too close to the sources. For example:

  • update — "Dramatising Democracy - asks whether dramas like The West Wing, Borgen or This House aid our understanding of the way governments operate or do they foster cynicism about whether democracy works"
  • source — "Dramatising Democracy ... asks whether dramas like The West Wing, Borgen or This House aid our understanding of the way governments operate - or do they foster cynicism about whether democracy works?"

This won't do - please see WP:COPYVIO for guidance. Andrew D. (talk) 12:18, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew, I clicked too hastily, before I had written what I actually had in mind, which I shouldn't have done. Thank you for quickly highlighting this. I have now written what I had in mind, in my own words, citing the sources I read. Whizz40 (talk) 11:03, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the revision. I haven't checked this in detail myself yet but have nominated the page for DYK, which will result in much scrutiny by others. Andrew D. (talk) 13:15, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
