  • Sport-related concussion (history · last edit) from Solomon, Gary S.; Karen M. Johnston; Mark R. Lovell (2006). The heads-up on sport concussion. Human Kinetics. ISBN 9780736060080. http://books.google.com/books?id=B01qwcnzDrQC. . Tagged as close paraphrase; I believe it may cross the line based on the preview of the book.

  • In my view, it's not close to being ok. Key words and sentence structures are still lifted straight from [1] and [2]. Words are changed and sentences re-arranged here and there, but it's essentially the same ideas and method of expression. The difficulty it seems is that the re-write has used the problematic text as its basis, so it suffers the same core problems. I think it needs to be rewritten from scratch without the problematic text being available. I'd propose to delete the original and the rewrite unless anyone has any views? --Mkativerata (talk) 21:26, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
