Plastination (history · last edit) from http://meduni02.edis.at/plast/plmeth.html. —Chris Capoccia ^T⁄_C 03:38, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Business process management (history · last edit) from http://www.bptrends.com/publicationfiles/advisor2008003251.pdf. I'm not clear of the Copyright status of this and whether the wikipedia author or the BPTrends author is the original source. In any case this is a near to direct replaication of content and needs to be checked.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder (history · last edit) from Movies of the 80s by Jürgen Müller and Herbert Klemens, "R. W. Fassbinder: Dark Angel" in Bright Lights Film Journal, Fassbinder's Germany by Thomas Elsaesser, and probably many others. Even though I have already reverted it to the version before the rewrite that introduced this wholesale plagiarism, the editor who put all this copyvio in the article in the first place has restored "his" work twice already and purports to believe that the wholesale copying of text will be okay if only "some citations" are added. 65.78.13.238 (talk) 22:49, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Federally Administered Tribal Areas (history · last edit) paragraphs from Olaf Caroe's 1958 book "The Pathans 550 B C A D 1957 (1958)" (details, streamed text available for free download here). I'm not clear of the Copyright status of the 1958 book (it is marked copyright Olaf Caroe and archive.org's terms of use states "is granted for scholarship and research purposes only." and "In particular, you certify that your use of any part of the Archive's Collections will be noncommercial and will be limited to noninfringing or fair use under copyright law." I feel the quotes used go beyond fair-use (and of course it is plagiarism too). The problem was suspected back in 2007 but I guess no one spotted the original source until now. It's mainly in the history sections where extensive unattributed copy and paste is evident. There also appears to be copy and paste from another source (ie not the 1958 book) but I have not looked for its source. Frankly I do not know the best or approved way to cleanup (the copy and paste text has already appeared in mirrors). 84user (talk) 00:34, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
