JzG has four choices Options

[Nya]

While he didn't copy 100% of someone else's work and call it his own, he did use someone else's work to rearrange words and introduce concepts in different places on the page -- which is pretty much what a wiki is all about.

Using someone else's work and rearranging the words does meet the standard definition of plagiarism. Even ideas are supposed to be cited, if they are the original work of another author/researcher/etc.

It's another thing to burn the book you copied it from and lie to the world that no such book ever existed and that you are the sole creator of the ideas that book espoused.

It is disgusting.

And that is why Guy Chapman is a joke.

Point taken. Perhaps JzG will one day have a lucrative career with the Ministry of Truth, burning old newspapers that are now "misprinted".

Seems that the WikBack management have deleted old threads in the "Cage Match" forum, so that the world can no longer see how Durova and JzG got caught publicly in their web of falsehoods. Interesting management decision, wouldn't you say?

[WhispersOfWisdom]

How can anyone enjoy doing what people do at Wikipedia?

Is it some sort of frantic obsession with the belief that there is some mission involved that will permanently alter the human state of life on earth?

I say slow down and just look around for a while...maybe get to know your children...just a little.

If every couple of minutes I was somewhere else, I would not end up anywhere.

Be careful...you may just end up where you are headed.


Guy, what kind of life is this?

hours and hours and hours....days upon days........OMG!

Lee, that's not even the half of it. Most of those edits are just manipulations of text on a web site. Most of them don't directly confront other human beings.

What's more fascinating to me is the "Block log" that JzG has compiled. It's like the carbon-copy ticket pad of a rural police officer with a radar gun.

Please, take a moment to admire some of the "reasons" that Guy Chapman gives for depriving others of the "privilege" of editing Wikipedia. They could be describing himself, to a tee!

Seems that the WikBack management have deleted old threads in the "Cage Match" forum, so that the world can no longer see how Durova and JzG got caught publicly in their web of falsehoods. Interesting management decision, wouldn't you say?

Google cache to the rescue.
