Similarity check
Dear TurnItIn,
How can I avoid a similarity check on the preliminary pages? Especially when we are running theses and dissertations, the preliminary pages have very similar information - the name of the university, names of degrees, declarations, tables of contents and such. How can we run Turnitin without taking these sections into consideration?

Hi Augustine Gitonga and thanks for reaching out. Let me just check what Turnitin's product are you referring to? is it iThenticate?

Augustine Gitonga , I found out that your institution is using Turnitin Feedback Studio. So, you may try and use assignment template exclusion by following these guidelines: https://help.turnitin.com/feedback-studio/turnitin-website/instructor/similarity-report-exclusions/excluding-assignment-templates.htm. Alternatively, you can omit individual matches inside each online report. These are all the options currently being available to our users. Hope it helps

Yulia Danyliuk Thank you, I will follow the instructions and hope to see a difference
Kind regards
Augustine
