Plagiarism

How do you report a plagiarized article?

[Chris Maunder]

There is a "Report Broken Article" link at the top of each article. Be sure to include a link to the material being plagarised if possible

Can  you please change that to just "Report Article", or create a second link with the end location to avoid confusion.

Report Article

That is brief and cute. There is a good proverb "Brevity is the soul of wit", which conveys all. :)

Where do you go to report plagiarism if the copied article is hosted on someone's personal blog? This happened to me. Here's my article: My Code Project Article[^] Here's the link to the site that plagiarised my work: Plagiarised Work[^] Thanks! Paul G.

I've read the two articles and I'm not sure which bits you are referring to as being copies. There's overlap in material, definitely, but I'm not seeing anything blatantly ripped off. If you can point out the bits I can contact the other author

Hi Chris, Thanks for the quick reply ;) My article is about how to use Oracle's Instant Client files within your project to connect to Oracle & retrieve data. It essentially explains how to avoid having to install the Oracle developer tools by using a few files from a package they provide to accomplish connectivity with a minimal footprint. This is essentially the core of my article and what is being copied (although his is not in as great detail and is using the latest client version files). The actual code in either of our articles has no bearing on the material presented. While our code may differ in appearance it achieves the same results, which is to use the Oracle Instant Client files within a project to retrieve data from an Oracle DB without installing the developer tools. Sort of like getting some software, changing the labels & box, resealing it and selling it as your own :(( I hope that made sense ;) Regards, Paul
