It looks like a mistake. I used several sources and rephrased every sentence, except this fragment: "Polish is the oldest, non-ecclesiastical, written Slavic language with a continuous tradition of literacy and official use, which has lasted unbroken from the 16th century to this day.", but I added "Tomasz Kamusella notes" and used quotation marks to show it's a quote.What should I do now? Hedviberit (talk) 20:12, 4 February 2023 (UTC) - It seems the problem lies in some of the sentences sourced to Kamusella. Is there a possibility to re-add them after rewriting them even more?

- Is the following version acceptable?: Since the 16th century, it was employed as the de facto administrative language in the Kingdom of Poland, and since the end of the 17th century as the only official language of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. In the latter half of the 16th century, Polish started to be used as the lingua franca in diplomatic and intellectual settings of East-Central and Eastern Europe, and the Slavic-speaking parts of the Balkan Peninsula. It survived in this role until the 18th century. After the Partitions of Poland, Polish remained an official language in the Congress Poland until 1860s, and until 1830s it was the administrative language in the rest of the Russian Empire's former Commonwealth areas. In the late 1860s, it became the language of governance in the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria. Hedviberit (talk) 00:51, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- This version presents the same ideas in the same order using only slightly different wording. That's too close of paraphrasing and not okay to add. — Diannaa (talk) 14:35, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Can this shortened version be added?: The history of Polish as a language of state governance starts in the 16th century in the Kingdom of Poland. Over the later centuries, Polish served as the official language in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Congress Poland, the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, and as the administrative language in the Russian Empire's Western Krai. The growth of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth's influence gave Polish the status of lingua franca in Central and Eastern Europe. Hedviberit (talk) 15:58, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Yes that's much better. Please be sure to include your citation. — Diannaa (talk) 16:32, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
