More on Accusations of Plagiarism

Wikipedia contributers keep changing the "Accusation of Plagiarism" subsection to give the reader the impression that the allegations are disputed when in fact there really isn't any debate about whether Monica Crowley plagiarized. The Wall Street Journal printed an apology. That should be sufficient evidence. In addition, the people editing this section keep inserting text defending Crowley's use of the phrase "with credit", which suggests that this is the only example of plagiarism in her article. It's not. There are numerous examples, many of which are shown on this very discussion page. Finally, whoever is making the changes has a chatty and sometimes incoherent writing style that does not adhere to the stylistic guidelines of Wikipedia.

I think it would be worthwhile to block these people from editing the page or to prohibit further edits to the page for a few weeks. 71.237.179.8 (talk) 20:36, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I've fixed the plagiarism section (someone vandalized it again), and put in a request for temporary protection. Mkblackstone (talk) 03:59, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Chatty and incoherent writing style? It's probably Monica herself! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.114.255.83 (talk) 20:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

The impression given is that Ms Crawley was charged, sued and convicted in court. She was not. Plus the Article was not an exact copy and it was so short I challenge anybody to write one that addresses the same issues that were addressed in the article. The Daily Kos a hateful blog that targets GOP writers and often posts half truths. They do not have balance there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.152.200.80 (talk) 00:50, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Every word of that is false. -- Jibal (talk) 04:24, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

An exact word for word lifting is not necessary for something to be plagiarism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.95.126.217 (talk) 19:21, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
