:In most of the cases I've found (and I'm beginning to suspect there are a horrifying number of plagiarized articles here), I've re-written the article to include the source, to provide proper attribution, and to minimize the amount of material lifted from any one source.  In this particular case however, I Googled the sentence from the article and found an abundance of sites which included the sentence word-for-word.  The first several sites I reviewed were not credible sources and thus were not appropriate to cite.  I did not have time to review all of the potential sources and determine whether there was a credible one or not.  I hope that whoever put this sentence in the article in the first place did indeed get it from a credible site - hopefully they have this article on their watchlist and will provide the source.  If not, someone else will have to either find a source or remove the sentence. --[[User:Hsmom|Hsmom]] 10:50, 7 October 2008 (EDT)

::If you see something that is plagarised, and it's clear that it is, immediately remove it.  Go to the talk page, explain what you did and provide the source where it came from.  The point I made above is that anyone just cannot say that such-and-such is plagarized without stating the source; all that would be is "my word against your's".  If the article is public domain and has no attribution tag at the bottom or a statement such as "text incorporated from...", cite that on the talk page as well.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 12:11, 7 October 2008 (EDT)
