 * James_Pieronnet_Pierce ([ history] · [ last edit]) from . Although User:RichardBond has made the claim the document is in the public domain, there is no proof; even the sourcing webpage doesn't state that. Further, the article is an exact copy of that transcription, while the wikipedia article pageonly says it 'incorporates elements' of the original. The only significant difference is that the wiki-article is sectioned, using the editor's own ideas for section titles, and that the wiki-article has our wikilinks. Finally, the article links to no other in the mainspace, suggesting a lack of notability, which is why after the matter of whether or not this is blatant plagiarism, as I believe it to be, and thus incompatible with our goals, I will run it through AfD for lack of notability.

 * - The source, published in 1922, is in the public domain. The contributor provided a proper edit summary when making the original copy paste and added a correct attribution to the bottom of the page. So there is no plagiarism. The remaining issues of OR, POV and notability have been left unaddressed. — Cactus Writer |   needles  15:48, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Asmahan ([ history] · [ last edit]) from Asia times I have previously reported this article, It was blanked by administrator for massive sections being copyrighted, the same user that added the copyrighted material from the first time, Arab Cowboy, has continued to ad copyrighted material with a lot of similarities to the source "three conditions of her own: to live in Damascus as opposed to the Druze mountain (the Jabal); to not be forced to don the veil (hijab); and to spend her winters in Cairo."
