Comparison with http://www.dictionaryofsydney.org/entry/west_ryde suggests citations in this article are currently inadequate. —DIV (137.111.13.36 (talk) 06:37, 11 November 2013 (UTC))Reply

Comparing to http://www.dictionaryofsydney.org/entry/west_ryde, the entire History section after the introductory paragraph looks like it was just copied. That source has a Creative Commons licence Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 Australia (CC BY-SA 2.5 AU), whereby "You are free to: Share — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format." So there is no actual copyright violation, but does Wikipedia approve of such large-scale copying of material with no acknowledgement other than the citation at the end of each section? Wikipedia:Public_domain_resources says "The very minimum that an editor ought to do is to tag any public domain sources dumped into the wiki with an attribution template" --Gronk Oz (talk) 02:58, 24 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
