Plagiarism?

The seccond parahraph of section 1.3.2 "Hobbies" is almost a word-for-word copy of the text found on Newsroom The media portal by Porsche (https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/christophorus/issue-382/porsche-911-turbo-rs-maestro-herbert-von-karajan-salzburg-13945.html), see the paragraph titled "Long list of special wishes". This source is listed at the end of the wiki paragraph, but there is no inline citation or other marker that states that this is not the text of the wiki-contributor. Unless Porsche themself have contributed this or given permission to use the text (there is a general copyright disclaimer on the Newsroom site), this seems to be a vialation. The pharagraph might be saved by addinng inline citation, but my opiion is that a full rewrite based on multiple sources would be the best remedy. Bjartewe (talk) 00:07, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

I agree. That section was added by WP:SPA User:Jenniitsai on 28 September 2019. It needs to be remedied. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 05:49, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
