More copyvio info edit

Reviewing admin, please note that there is even more copyright violation than Earwig is picking up; for instance, compare the first episode summary with this episode summary at IMDb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0994315/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl. Thanks. Innisfree987 (talk) 04:36, 10 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi Primefac, thanks for beginning removing the copyvio from this piece. I wanted to flag to make sure you saw how much more remains--even just in the six sentences of the first episode summary, there are at least two phrases that are directly lifted, and several more with just one or two words rearranged from the original at IMDb. I'd suggested we just go ahead and delete all the episode summaries, to give a clean start if/when someone wants to come along and write them in their own words, rather than try to revise this insufficiently paraphrased version. To me there's just too much plagiarism mingled throughout for it to make sense to try to excise sentence by sentence. Innisfree987 (talk) 19:07, 10 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, that's fine. I was dealing with 21 other copyvios at the time so I was mostly just taking a "direct-copy" approach to the removals. I have no issues with blanking the summaries and letting others re-fill them in. Primefac (talk) 00:44, 11 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
