Overall: @ZaniGiovanni: Good article. However, earwig is reporting that there may be copyright violations in the article. Can you explain why? Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:45, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: are you able to see what parts of the article are copyright violations? If the issue is with Carruthers Society source, it was published on March 2020 and it seems the similar text was either on the Lawrence article before then or is part of a quote box for another source. Carruthers Society seems to be a WP:FORK. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 09:51, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
@Onegreatjoke: It seems that the only similar text being mistaken as copyright violations either are block quotes or text from this Carruthers Society page from March 2020, which is a WP:MIRROR of the Wikipedia article because the text was already on earlier versions of the article. If there are no other violations, could you please approve this nomination? ZaniGiovanni (talk) 10:05, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
