 * After looking at copyright for the image File:Aqua_NASA_satellite.jpg, I see that this may be a false alarm. It may be that all of these are covered under the public domain-ish JPL/NASA copyright license.  Most of these sources are cited, but are clearly copied almost verbatim (aka plagiarized).  It seems sloppy to do so.  Before removing the template tag, I'd like someone more knowledgable in copyright law to investigate. Lgstarn (talk) 06:03, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

 * I can't find a source or much on this syndrome either. It definitely appears to have been copied from the preview page of a journal though. No response from editor, recommend deletion.--NortyNort (Holla) 02:24, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
