Persaud
Hi. Regarding your edit summary in this edit, can you point me to the sections that were plagiarised? We're permitted to use information contained in a source, provided we cite it, but if our article closely follows the structure of the source we'll need to rewrite it, and if it copies the source word-for-word, we'll have to delete it. Feel free to comment on the article's "talk" page, or if you'd prefer to reply here on your talk page, paste User:Anthonyhcole into your reply and I'll know when you've responded. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 05:37, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

User:Anthonyhcole Hi Anthony, I meant that Persaud's book From Edge of the Couch contains massive amounts of plagiarized material, so I don't think Wikipedia should recommend it to people. For example, it contains an article I wrote, word for word, literally thousands of words, with the references removed. The Wikipedia entry for Persaud should probably also be strengthened to indicate the blatancy and severity of the plagiarism. GreenBread 05:33, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
