I feel that when you are using someones ideas or words you must use quotation marks or reference links --- having said that,I wonder what would happen if I handed in an assignment with 80% quotes?

I think it's even more difficult when you are writing a historical article like the one you cited. Because if it's something historical, well then, you have to state the facts, so there's even less room for change, or "rewordingm" as opposed to when you are writing a creative piece where the sky's the limit.
