 * Cognitive authority ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from https://web.archive.org/web/20080512170752/http://newweb2.si.umich.edu/rieh/papers/rieh_IBTheory.pdf. I haven't checked the article as a whole, but having an abstract that is almost uniquely copy/pasted (in quotes, so the intention is ethically understandable; this is not plagiarism) from a non-free text is not acceptable. The abstract itself is rather poor quality - we only find out get indirect definitions of "cognitive authority" in the final three sentences of a nine-sentence quote.

 * The abstract dates to, and the author was indefinitely blocked in 2020 for copyright violations. One of the two current talk page sections is about the copyright status of the article, dating to 2008. Boud (talk) 01:41, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
