Talk:Texan schooner Invincible

GA Review
A fine short article, with just a couple of minor points before I would be happy to pass this at GA.
 * Can we have wikilinks to Sam Houston and Secretary Fisher? Even if they are red links they would be worth having.
 * The references are not properly formatted. Can we have the name, publisher and date last accessed as per WP:REF?
 * If possible can the lead be expanded to two paragraphs (not essential, but would improve the article).

Other than that the article ticks all boxes. Its well written, well sourced and has a nice image, covers the topic adequately and is of course neutral and stable.--Jackyd101 10:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I believe I have taken all of your suggestions and submit this for your approval. Thanks for helping improve the article. Argos '  Dad  03:46, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Yup, its passed, well done.--Jackyd101 19:17, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Texan schooner Invincible : copyvio
Karanacs discovered that this article was heavily plagiarized from |the Handbook of Texas online and posted a message at Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations. Karanacs then tried to remove the offending text. I read their notice and used Duplication Detector to compare the handbook to the original version created in September 2007 by User:Argos'Dad and it found 78 matching phrases. The article was approved for GA by User:Jackyd101. I'm afraid a duplication detector check of the current version of the article after Karanacs's culling still returns 48 matching phrases. I have tagged the article as a WP:COPYPASTE and WP:PARAPHRASE, a violation of Copyright violations. I believe an administrator will now be alerted to look into it and will decide if the article needs to be deleted. Prhartcom (talk) 22:03, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
