The first paragraph looks paraphrased, but includes identical medical terms. The second paragraph is from a public domain source. --NeilN talk to me 22:16, 10 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

The first paragraph has entire sentences lifted from the source. The second paragraph is lifted from a government website that cites other non public domain material. While all of the government's work is released into the public domain, I don't know that they are able to release a summary that they compile based on the copyrighted work of others into the public domain. At the very least, I would assume that we'd be in shady waters if we don't also cite all of the references on that page, which was not done. Maybe you can shed some light on that @NeilN: because I honestly don't know too much about the public domain. I've additionally nominated as per WP:G5, as the user who created this page has been indeffed as a sock of a banned blocked account. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ghazallghochani. ~ RobTalk 22:29, 10 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
Small clarification: The master is blocked for a period of time, not banned. --NeilN talk to me 22:33, 10 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
Corrected, sorry about that. ~ RobTalk 22:39, 10 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
