I just checked the latest version of the article, which hasn't seen any substantial editing since 13 September, and Earwig's tool still reports a 61.5% possible copyvio, principally from the subject's own site as mentioned in the main discussion.

Right, age and size check out. Hook checks out. Someone cut-and-pasted the sentence "The film examines the appearance and disappearance of the phantom as it relates to the present/absent dynamic of visible lesbian sexuality in the canons of both cinema and art history." from this ref. Also that ref is used to cite that she's been a reader at Westminster since 2000...but I couldn't find that date in the source. Otherwise article appears faithful to source material without paraphrasing too closely. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 14:20, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- Pulled from queue for copyright concerns. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:22, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- To expand, there is some material taken verbatim and some more closely paraphrased from this site, which is copyrighted. Noting the concerns raised by Casliber above, it is possible that there is additional problematic copying involving other sites. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:55, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
Article has had a "close paraphrasing" template on it since August 30; nominator Edwardx was pinged on September 3 and has not yet replied here or edited the article to take care of the problematic paraphrasing. If there is no response very soon, this nomination will be marked for closure. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:52, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- I have extensively copyedited and reorganised the article, either rewording or using quotes around phrases that could not easily be reworked. I hope it will now past muster. My apologies for not tackling this sooner. Edwardx (talk) 23:23, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for your work so far. I have removed the tag, but I think a bit more editing is needed before DYK. For example, "Many of her films take place within the confines of domestic space" remains quite close to "The majority of her films take place within the confinements of domestic space".

- And thank you for your diligence. I've done some more copyediting. I did try to teach our new editors at the editathon about not copying and pasting, but it looks like this is a message we'll have to keep repeating. Edwardx (talk) 22:42, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- Agreed, as it is a pervasive problem: "The film examines the phantom's appearance and disappearance in relation to" and "The film examines the appearance and disappearance of the phantom as it relates to". Often problems like this require extensive checking and restructuring. Nikkimaria (talk) 18:41, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
