Normally I say we give an article a chance, but this one is a giant paragraph and is so poorly written that I think it needs to be deleted and an enthusiastic editor could start over. I'm going with
ignore all rules because deletion of this article will make Wikipedia better. If someone can re-write/edit/cleanup quickly, I'd happily withdrawl.--

Comment the article was up for a Speedy delete for copyright violation. I removed the one paragraph that was a copyvio and removed the speedy. I wasn't comfortable doing a speedy deletion after that, so I brought the article here for discussion.--

The
Copyvios report only shows 4.8% of the text as a match and lists it as "Violation unlikely" -- after a review of the text, it's just a heading and not material information AND the article gives credit to the source. Poorly written? Yes. Copyvio? Nope. I will remove the "speedy" once again. This article needs to go through AFD. If any editor is concerned about the remaining ten words that they think might be a copyright violation, they can remove those ten words.--

Paulmcdonald, please do have a closer look at the actual content and the Springer link. I am a huge fan of Earwig's copyvio detector, however it doesn't help in this case as it doesn't cover the pdf preview on the Springer site. Even when running copyvio detector on the specific pdf it's not accurate due to the weird formatting (still
67.8%). Please also consider the notes I made in the previous message (e.g. the copied footers, copied ref-numbers). I have no issues with letting this Afd run its due course. I do however still believe it would qualify for speedy deletion. And so it appears does
TenPoundHammer, as they were the second user to tag it for speedy deletion. –
