All I found was that this paraphrasing tool works better than the others
that one could obtain on a Google search. I do not mean to say that it will
substitute a human effort. Nevertheless, it might still be better than
nothing. In uncomplicated cases it could possibly still give a reasonably
good output. Human discretion still would be essential else we would "no
longer know that the dog is brown".
James: I doubt if legalities would be an issue. In effect it is a
derivative work. Is a manual translation not a derivative work as well?

Doing word substitution is not enough to get around "copy and paste"
issues. It may make them harder to detect but legally it does not solve the
problem.

I find this machine translation to be impressive indeed. With a bit of
application of mind we might need to work a lot less. Thanks Gwinyai for

Hi
I would like to draw attention to a paraphrasing tool available at:
http://paraphrasing-tool.com/
I found that it paraphrases reasonably well. It can be of good utility in
cases of copy-vio or where tools to check plagiarism give suspicious
response.

Hey All
I am excited to have rejoined the board of the WMF during Wikimania. As per
the requirements of the position I have stepped down from the board of
WPMEDF. Shani Evenstein has taken over the role of chair. I will remain
associated with the organization as a special advisory and funder. I have
also not re-run for the board of WMCA but am leaving that organization in
the excellent hands of Benoit and the rest of the board.
