Ventura County Community College District (history · last edit) from [1]. Per the page history, it's been up since August. szyslak (t, c, e) 01:38, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Myra Hindley from [2]. Looking at the edit history, it's stuff added by User:82.38.21.76 on 29 October 2006, which is nearly four years after the content on the source page was written. (This user appears to be something of a troublemaker, judging from their user page thingy.) It's not a direct copy, but it's far too close to be a paraphrase, either - I'm not certain of the ins and outs of copyright law, but the lifted material is close enough to the original that I suspect it's a copyright violation (it's lifted from everything2.com; on E2, copyright is retained by the authors.) I'm not really familiar enough with Wikipedia to figure out how to edit the content out myself, particularly since it's no doubt heavily mixed in with non-copyrighted contributions. Sorry, I don't really know how Wikipedia works. But this is at very least plagiarism and I'm pretty sure it's wholesale copyright violation. Excalibre 03:22, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply

Meldrim Thomson, Jr. (history · last edit) from -- to the person who removed the earlier copyvio tag, please do not remove copyvio tags without more carefully checking the articles. see phrase "castrating the cat", identical sentence in both articles. Even one sentence is actionable plagiarism. Quatloo 08:29, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply
