Plagarism[edit]

Ironically, I forked this out of another Wikipedia article where it had not been flagged. It was poorly worded and I spent quite a bit of time rewording it. And got flagged anyway! I have reworded and tightened it even more. Hope that is enough. Jeepers! Student7 (talk) 22:52, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Forking requires attribution, could you please indicate where you forked it from? Further, the addition of content from this source in this diff is also a direct copy / paste from another source which has to be rewritten from scratch. MLauba (talk) 12:56, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation[edit]

I copied this from another wikipedia article to start with. It had not been flagged there! I have since modified it drastically three times. The stupid program keeps flagging it anyway though even the author of the original article wouldn't recognize it anymore! This is nuts! Student7 (talk) 13:17, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where did you copy it from please? MLauba (talk) 13:22, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Nice to have a human to talk to!
I copied it from Congregation of Holy Cross. My most recent change deletes it from there. I don't know who added it or when.
That may let me personally off the hook, but the program will catch it again anyway. I have never read the original, my fear now is that I would copy it by mistake! There are not that many facts. I have tried to delete, modify and change most of them so the article is now a fairly pathetic resemblance to a decent article. I did move it to the suggested space for consideration for replacing this article. It's awful, but you aren't concerend with quality at this point. I just want the copyright program off my back! Thanks! Student7 (talk) 13:36, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I took a go at it, this should now pass muster. MLauba (talk) 18:10, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
