Plagiarism[edit]

This article appears to be almost entirely stolen from http://www.emedicine.com/derm/topic596.htm . Isn't plagiarism disallowed on wikipedia? It is nowhere near cited properly and is far from fair use. WP:FU for details. I propose this article's deletion for this reason unless someone chooses to update/modify it heavily.

Since some of the article was apparently original text added by other editors, I've listed this page on Wikipedia:Copyright_problems/2007_October_15/Articles instead of proposing it for deletion...hopefully this is the correct action. --Jpp42 09:26, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image taken from reddit[edit]

That and the picture is entirely taken from [1] without citation, or credit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.231.224.71 (talk) 00:02, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Noted. --Bobak (talk) 03:29, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Untrue, citation is given on the image upload itself. Furthermore the uploader verified her permissions with via a private message which im told is insufficient evidence for permission. The Reddit user in question has since deleted their account so no further permission can be gained at this time.--Jamez1502 (talk) 11:50, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Id like to add here that whilst the decission to protect the page seems logical, I hardly think three edits in a day constitutes a "swarm".--Jamez1502 (talk) 11:53, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The "permission" can't be verified on a single user's comment alone. It'd have to go through OTRS to be acceptable permission, or I believe the user could publicly post a message confirming it. Since the user deleted their Reddit account, the latter is probably impossible. It's a shame that the image can't get adequate permission since there's no other images of this condition on Commons. --Lewis Hulbert (talk) 19:23, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I did in fact ask, in a separate message, that the user make a public post addressing the issue but unfortunately no relevant action was taken. It is indeed a loss, I've told the story on the deletion request on commons expressing that I shall therefore leave it up to the community to decide what is to be done. However I expect deletion will shortly follow.--Jamez1502 (talk) 20:04, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
