I can see how there are things on my hub that would be on others too. But if they're commonly used quotes, or at least ones from well-known people, isn't that kind of thing expected?
I suppose my real question is....how do I know what part of my hub is getting 'duplicated'? I happen to have a lot of text on my hub and since they're quotes, I can't go revising just whenever I want without becoming...'unreal' I guess, I can't think of the word at the moment.
Anyway, is there a way to tell what part of my hub is the problem?
If your hub has many quotes then that's the problem. It only means that there's not enough original content. It means, you must add more of your own view or words....a lot of them, if you used a lot of quotes.
I would say that less than 10% of your hub should be quotes and 90% of the hub should be YOU.

I am doing a 20 "such and such" quotes about "such and such" hub. I even went back in after they marked it duplicate and made sure 400 of the words are my words, even though I know people googling it aren't going to want to read my words and are instead just going to be coming...

I hope someone can help before I have to throw away a hub that took me 6 hours to produce. It is marked "unpublished for duplication" for no reason that I can discern. Every single word and sentence came from my own head and has never been published online (or anywhere else for that...
