[edit]

This article is clearly based on this website: Newsnight Review. The structure is the same and some whole sentences are identical.--Oxonian2006 (talk) 14:42, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aha. If you look at the earliest edit in the history it admits that this is 'nicked wholesale' from the BBC.--Oxonian2006 (talk) 14:48, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've made a first stab at addressing the copyvio concerns. See Talk:John Harris (critic)/Temp. -- Robocoder (t|c) 05:24, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
