But this article: http://www.giantbomb.com/actraiser/61-7274/
Has been completely copied from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActRaiser

Is this where I report this sort of thing?

This is as good a place as any.

If anyone wants to do the legwork on this - take a look through the wiki points of the users who have edited the Actraiser page and see if you can find any other plagiarized material.  If you find anything, go ahead and shoot me a PM.  Please don't erase the article until we figure out who did it though, please.

You're lucky I noticed it, then. I was just about to spice that article up.

I'm going to need more than just a hunch...another article that can be proven to originate from this user that was also plagiarized would seal the deal.

Are you 100% sure no one else could have possibly submitted the article?

I tested it out and I got 108 points for deleting the entire article and re-copy/pasting it.  I'm going to lock this for now and have some of the Wiki mods take a look, and we'll go from there.  Thanks guys.
