244:"he was awarded a rockefeller fellowship to study at the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine, which awarded him a diploma of public health with distinction" in the article and "he was awarded a rockefeller fellowship. He studied at the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine gaining the diploma of public health with distinction" in the source. I'm aware that there aren't too many ways of expressing some of this information, but I think that these are too close for comfort. 236:"he assumed command of the 1st mobile bacteriological laboratory which arrived in the middle east in march 1941" in the article and "given command of the 1st mobile bacteriological laboratory he arrived in the middle east in march 1941" in the source, and "He was educated at clunes higher elementary school he began working for postmaster general's department" in the article and "Educated at clunes higher elementary school he joined the postmaster general's department" in the source. 222: 346: 349:
The article meets length and date criteria and is well cited. I've rechecked for close paraphrasing after some reworking of the highlighted sections and am (fairly) confident that any similarities now are acceptable as the listing of bare facts. The hook is interesting (to me anyway) and short enough

and is cited to a source that supports the fact (although you can only see the first page without paying, this fact is on that page). The PD picture of Ford in the article could be used with the hook, if anyone wants to add it.
119: 300:
I'll try to see if I can come up with a reworking for these three short sections that is further from the source but that you think still fits OK in the article and is supported by the sources.

is that it's about the structure of the writing as well as the actual content. If you're OK with the changes, even if you think that they're pointless, then I'll get back to the review.

Fact1: Awarded a Rockefeller fellowship to study at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Fact2: Earned a diploma of public health with distinction

No, that is fine! Thank you very much for your help. I am pretty certain that he arrived in the Middle East with 1MBL, so I changed to wording slightly.

Rephrasing is beyond me. Each of these four examples consists of two facts which cannot be changed.
