Dumelow, what a sorrowful article, written in a way that preserves respect for those impacted by the event. Everything else looks okay, but Earwig's is pulling a large amount of text from this article. Is this copied from Wikipedia, or the other way around? Urve (talk) 21:32, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks Urve, I know they have copied from us because I remember writing the paragraph about the casualties and damage myself! To confirm, it was in the article by 28 January while the publication date of that GLitzEmpire article is 2 February. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 21:42, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
Beautiful, thanks; the 2 February date gave me pause, but I wasn't sure if their software saw edits as a new publication. OK, QPQ is good, copyvio is resolved (disappointing that they copied from us), the citations for the hook and throughout the article are good and to reliable sources, neutral tone. I can't find a source that the image is appropriately licensed, though, and the uploader to commons does not appear to be the author of the image; unless that's resolved, I recommend that this be promoted without the image.
