Because I discovered this close paraphrasing example in the first paragraph I checked, it is likely that there are extensive close paraphrasing issues with the article. DYK is backlogged, and reviewers are unable to spend a disproportionate amount of time on a nomination.Article: "The focus of ancient people on honor and dishonor meant that individuals were particularly oriented toward the approval and disapproval of their societal peers."
Source: "The focus of ancient people on honor and dishonor means that they were particularly oriented toward the approval and disapproval of others."
I am willing to reconsider this closure if the article's editors compare each sentence with the text of the sources and resolve any close paraphrasing issues within the next seven days. Cunard ( talk) 20:58, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

- I realize that these are newbie editors, but plagiarism is not acceptable content for the main page. Compare for example: "
Honor is a dynamic and relational concept. An individual can think of himself or herself as honorable based on his or her belief that he or she embodies the qualifications that a group values as "honorable"" (article); "Honor is a dynamic and relational concept. On the one hand, an individual can think of himself or herself as honorable based on his or her conviction that he or she has embodied those actions and qualities that the group values as "honorable.""
