No more plaggiarism on CP
-
No more plaggia on CP, please! How is the plaggia problem tackled right now ? The two articles on ASP database are shameless cut-and-paste from Philip Quinn articles written back in 2001. Plaggia is the worst form of intellectual roberry, it has no place on CP. Here are several proposal to tackle plagirism: - Since it is a strong accusation, the authors of such plaggia should be able to argue why they did it and the decision should be left to CP team - Similarly to the purgatory, there should be inferno where the article would disappear in flames - Authors that repeatidely do such things should be banned or marked (with a special icon: I love plagia) Jonathan de Halleux - www.dotnetwiki.org - MbUnit - QuickGraph
Which two articles? Since it is a strong accusation, the accuser should be able to substantiate his claim of plagiarism by providing links to the management of this site. I know from personal researches that original articles here are often copied and published elsewhere under other writers' names. I have never seen a plagiarized article appear here, however.

I was curious to see which articles are involved, and what - if any - steps were taken to credit the original author. You don't identify either the originals or the copies at CP in your post, and the tone of the post implies that this is a rampant problem. I strongly doubt that.

The article posted on CP was "ASP.NET & Databases : Part 1". This is a serie of at least 3 articles. The plagier had already cut-and-pasted 2. No credit was given, he had not even takened the time to fix the syntax.

By spelling it in several ways, he makes sure that he'll spell it right at least once :) Even a broken clock shows the right time twice a day :-D Perl combines all the worst aspects of C and Lisp: a billion different sublanguages in one monolithic executable. It combines the power of C with the readability of PostScript. -- Jamie Zawinski

If you don't do that, then your accusations are groundless and hurtful. I agree entirely. If you have a problem with plagiarism, contact us with the details of where you think the original article resides to back up the claim. Don't post without evidence, otherwise it's just offensive, and reflects badly on all involved, including you. Regards, Barry

Even when a CP editor plagiarizes an article found elsewhere?
I feel a strong need to reply to your consistently negative view of things here at CodeProject. If you dislike the site, and especially its strong Microsoft emphasis, why do you come here? :confused: Based upon the expertise shown in your articles, it can't be because you're looking for help :suss:.

delete this;Not only is this untrue, it is the freedom of speech which seems embarassing to you. I hope you understand I hope not willing to discuss this with you. When I have a strong feeling about something happening here, I'll point it out again and, for the record, I did for the thing I am pointing out. Do your research mate.
