Plagiarosity[edit]

As much as I love Patrice and am glad to see her having success since Little Sis.. er, I mean Sister Seven broke up, I have to say that this page is an exact copy of some text from her MySpace page. If no one says anything else here, I might eventually remember to come back and delete the bulk of it. But for now, I just got copies of "Free Love & Nickel Beer" and "Freedom Child" both, so I've got better things to do.Eaglizard 06:14, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, exactly 2 years later to the day, and I quite coincidentally find myself looking at this page again. Hasn't been improved any, I'm afraid. I'll probably wind up deleting half or more of the text of this article; just want to make it clear to any interested parties that my edits are all about WP Policy, and aren't done to push any personal agenda or minimize Patrice's notability.

Ok, no one has made a single comment here in two years, so I don't know what makes me think anyone would care, but just in case, I'm planning on soon replacing this page entirely with a more encyc. bio I'm writing from scratch. To anyone who might happen to care at all, you can have a look at User:Eaglizard/Patrice Pike. Please feel free to comment on it. Eaglizard (talk) 21:37, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rather than delete the article once the copyright violation was tagged and listed for admin closure, I've replaced it with yours. I've removed the sections that seem to have been incomplete. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 04:03, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edits by 'personal assistant'[edit]

User:Ppike7 has recently (well, 6 months ago) added some significant information to this article, and changed it somewhat, as well (see here [1]). Unfortunately, all of the additions are completely uncited. I intend to leave a note on the user's talk page to explain the necessary steps for adding info to WP (ie, WP:CITE, in particular), and wait a while to see if it gets fixed.Eaglizard (talk) 00:40, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
