Hello.

There are many parts in your writing that have been rewritten from various Wikipedia articles in different languages.
Although you provided some general sources, it is recommended that you provide proper quoting for the text that was copied and re-written.

For example:

I'll be happy to add a remark that facts from Wikipedia or other sources have been used next time around. No big deal.

Other than that, what I did is called "research" and there is nothing wrong with that. I studied multiple articles in multiple different languages, to the tune of over twenty hours.

I have not "quoted" anything, but went through great lengths to rephrase the information to NOT copy and paste it, as your example of my misdeeds also demonstrates. There is only so many ways to skin a cat, when it comes to conveying facts.

Of course, I can do what many others do: just slap my photos on, collect my rewards, and be done. It's a lot quicker that way for me, wouldn't you say?

Your accusation is way off the mark.

The rewording is very similar to the original sentences. No book with such evident rewriting would pass without the author being accused of plagiarism.
Please use quotes instead, when your rewording looks almost identical to the original text.

O.K., I'm just going to post without text, if at all. Like I said, less work for me. I don't have time for this kind of nonsense.
