Late termination of pregnancy[edit]
Hi! I saw that you added some content to this article. I have a couple of notes:
- When adding content, it's typically better to put it in prose format as opposed to bullet points.
- This is too closely paraphrased from the source material for comfort. I think the bullet points does make this lean more towards close paraphrasing. Keep in mind that close paraphrasing is still seen as a form of plagiarism, even if you were to include the source itself as a citation. This is why it's usually better to take notes and then write your contribution in your own words. I would like you to re-review the module on plagiarism and copyright.
- With the article, keep in mind that it looks at the topic on a global scale. As such, this information should go under the legal restrictions section of the page, under the subheader focusing on the United States. The non-US specific sections should take a more general, global perspective.
The source that you found for this is definitely good and the information doesn't look to be included in the above mentioned section, however it does need to be re-written since it can be seen as plagiarism. I'm going to need to remove this from the article as well. I don't think that this was intentional plagiarism, but it's still important for you to be careful about this.
