Plagiarism

[edit]

This article really needs to be rewritten. So much of it is a directly plagiarism from the "Prodigies" source cited at the end of the article (but the text is not quoted at all). (unsigned comment by User:24.27.19.156 )

Can you give an example of plagiarism please. I've read through both biographies and the writing is quite different although the facts - obviously - are the same. Rossrs 09:02, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Here is your proof of plagiarism (plagiarism is crediting oneself rather than the real author) and proof of copyright infringement (copyright infringement is illegal and unauthorized copying):

Wikipedia:

"When the Ringling train shows ended in 1956, the Dolls started touring with the Christiani Circus, living in a trailer they pulled behind their car. The Dolls found this to be an unacceptable situation, so in 1958 they jointly retired."

Prodigies by James G. Mundie:

"When the Ringling train shows ended in 1956, the Doll's started touring with the Christiani Circus, living in a trailer they pulled behind their car. The Doll's found this to be an unacceptable situation, so in 1958 they jointly retired."
