Talk:Allan Roth

Close paraphrasing

@Omnis Scientia: First off, I'd like to thank you for creating this article. However, I'd like to point out that at least two passages in this article are improperly paraphrased from the article's main source:

Original source: …Distributed to reporters each game day during the season, the magazine was filled with Roth’s statistics as well as promotional material. He provided extensive statistical sections for the team’s yearbooks and media guides.

Wikipedia article: …distributed to reporters each gameday and contained Roth's work as well as promotional material. He also began to provide extensive statistical sections for the team's yearbooks and media guides.

Original source: …he met with each player, along with one of the coaches, and went over their performance the previous year, emphasizing positives as well as negatives and suggesting changes that could improve the player’s statistics.

Wikipedia article: …he met with each player, along with one of the coaches, and went over their performance from the previous year, emphasizing strengths and weaknesses and suggesting changes to improve each player's statistics.

This may be a violation of our policy on paraphrasing and therefore a copyright violation, something we take very seriously. Real paraphrasing is more than just changing and rearranging a few words. I strongly recommend rewriting these passages in your own words. Songwaters (talk) 19:26, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Will do so. Thank you for making me aware. -- Omnis Scientia (talk) 08:55, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

I have rephrased the two sections in question. Again, thank you for making me aware. Will be more careful going forward. And thank you for fixing the small spelling/punctuation errors as well. -- Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:09, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

Religion

User:Omnis Scientia Same issue as in another article - you never say he himself was Jewish in the text. But put him in a Jewish cat. You need to evidence that in the text, with the proper RS ref. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:3DC5:789A:CB50:868 (talk) 06:10, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

He is Jewish because he was born Jewish and there is a reference saying so. I suggest you stop making promptu edits when you don't even bother reading the article. Omnis Scientia (talk) 08:30, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
