A good portion of this article has been cribbed from Wikipedia.

Which parts exactly? I had a quick scan through both articles and didn't notice any plagiarism.

I came across quite a few things, hell diablo II for instance the headline

"Diablo II, sequel to the game Diablo, is a dark fantasy-themed action role-playing game in a hack and slash and "dungeon roaming" style. It was released for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS in 2000 by Blizzard Entertainment, and was developed by Blizzard North."

Is from Wikipedia, I did a new one, explained why to the mods, and it got denied.

Yeah, large portions seem to have been copied from the SF Wikia (or maybe they copied from us -- who knows?)

I'll send PMs to the top users and ask them if they know anything about it.

If you have any other cases of plagiarism to report, please PM a wikimod (like me).
