   Hi Hubbers,
   
   I'd like some help with passing the Quality Assessment Process. Will you please give feedback on my article? What can I do to improve? Thanks!
   Here is my article: Anxiety: Symptom and Treatment Guide

      You need to write in paragraphs instead of pressing Enter after every sentence and even in the middle of sentences. It's too spaced out,
      
      You have included quotes and you need to attribute them to the originator.
      
      What is TTIP?
      
      "Folklore suggests that anxiety and stress are common..." Folklore is not the right word here. You could use 'Popular opinion suggests...'
      
      It would be a good idea to include your professional experience or personal credentials that qualify you to offer mental health advice. In your bio and the article summary, perhaps.
      
      You have a nice style of writing and your English is good

      Could be that the automated system sees it as spun, or AI-generated.
      
      When I plug many of your paragraphs into Google, I'm able to pull up near-identical wording within other articles and webpages.
      
      I didn't go any further than this since the other author has already addressed relevant concerns.
      
      Best of luck!

   Thank you for your advice. I'll rectify my mistake, but there are no quotes in my article of someone else and TTIP is a typo, it's actually TIPS.

      There are a couple of sentences in quotes.

   Thank you for going through my article but when i am writing this article, i did that in my native language first and then translate it in English and i also  run the article through Plaigarism checker.
   
   But I'll see what could i change.
   
   And during writing time these sentences which looks like "quotes" occurs naturally. So should i change those lines or attach them into a paragraph.

      Do what you think is best, but do remove the quotation marks as they don't mean anything unless they are reported speech or actual quotes from someone else.

         What will you do when HP finally closes down, Bev? That day can't be far off now. Once they've finished obtaining or creating new versions of the best-performing articles, I suspect that will be the next move.
         
         You've helped so many new writers over the years, as well as uncovered a bunch of frauds. And all done for no payment.

            I deleted my previous response just in case some people took it the wrong way. I'm not married and I would never be violent to my partner of 25 years.

               Bev - I never saw your original response, but it sounds intriguing.
               
               I'm so jaded, my temptation is to tell new writers not to bother. This place is on its last legs. My drive to be helpful to newbies here is gone.
               
               Although it doesn't seem to be on anyone else's list of gripes, I've always felt annoyed that they stopped paying people to help writers in the forums. Samantha was the last person to have that role, if I remember rightly. Simone was maybe the most memorable!
               
               It didn't seem good when that stopped. It's understandable that hubbers stepped in to fill the void. But I've never felt that it should be unpaid.

                  I found, especially in the distant past, that explaining something to a new writer helped to cement it in my own mind. And it was voluntary so it was fine by me. It filled the gap left when I ceased running a recycling group after 12 years.
                  
                  Re my previous comment, I'd answered you by saying that I'd commit a mild physical rebuke on my husband.  Meaning it to be a kind of mental cartoon image, but then thought - better not And, as I said, there's technically no husband.
