In fact, I'm pretty much sure of it.

As of August 5th:

Compare the current article with this.

I'm fairly certain that this sort of thing is discouraged.

Yea the first paragraph of the Storyline here on Giant Bomb is the first paragraph of Plot on Wikipedia word for word, aside from the start of the second sentence.

They need to put a strict NO PLAGIARISM notice on the screen whenever you edit anything.  That and any member caught pulling this crap should have their points set back to zero and they should not be allowed to edit or even view wiki for a month.  That would lead to more results than the current policy of "hey guys, cut it out!  Come on, we're serious here!"

Yeah, stuff like this makes you question the whole points system. I personally love it, but there are just too many d-bags that want lolpointz.

I submitted this to the delete/combine articles forum.  I'm not sure if it's really the appropriate way to report, but hopefully it will trigger something to happen.

I'm pretty this happens all the time on this site.

That's why I don't care about getting points or post numbers.  I don't have to worry about all this stupid crap.
