Copyright problem[edit]

This article has been reverted by a bot to this version as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) This has been done to remove User:Accotink2's contributions as they have a history of extensive copyright violation and so it is assumed that all of their major contributions are copyright violations. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

Copyright vio[edit]

This article contains word for word similarities with this article by Brian Kenety. For example these two sentences are exactly the same, including the parenthesis:

(In Canada, he is considered to be a Canadian author despite the fact that he is still mostly publishing in Czech.)

As far as I can tell the Wikipedia article was written first and Kenety copied from it. Please don't delete or tag copyvio until you can verify which came first, it appears Wikipedia came first. Green Cardamom (talk) 16:27, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The sentence you mention was started 15/3/2007 and finished 28/2/2008 so I don't see how it could be a copyvio of an article published 3/1/2012. Contrariwise, if the article's author indeed used WP as his source I doubt we can use his article as a major source for ours. --Thrissel (talk) 02:58, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As (understandably) nobody seems to disagree I'll remove the "reference". --Thrissel (talk) 19:32, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Death[edit]

The category "Deaths from cancer" has been added to this page. On that category page it states: Cancer is a relatively common disease. Generally, this category should include only people who are notable for having or dying of cancer, especially those who have voluntarily participated in public advocacy of issues related to cancer, rather than a complete catalog of every single person died from cancer-related medical condition.

Does Škvorecký meet the above conditions? If so, there is no mention of the evidence in the article. 850 C (talk) 10:51, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
