    It strikes me that this might be an interesting project to use one of the search APIs... What kind of duplication are we talking about here? Straight copy-pasting of large blocks of text? Or is there significant paraphrasing / large amounts of text transitioning between plagiarised blocks?

    I agree. The Google API isn't that hard to write for and if you've got a list of docs, you can pretty much just run a google search on each one of them. If the exact phrase shows up anywhere on the web, then you've got a plagiarised page.

      Thanks for the links. It's pretty much copy/paste Cheers, Tom Archer - Archer Consulting Group Programmer Trainer and Mentor and Project Management Consultant
