Hiya,

I was just proof-reading my Bat and Trap article for about the millionth time and I followed the 'England' link to check where it goes.

It looks like the current article shares a lot of text with another website:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/A471638
vs
http://www.referatele.com/referate/engleza/online13/Proiect-la-engleza---Anglia-referatele-com.php

One or the other has been shunted around a bit so they're not exact word for word copies of the whole article, but big sections of text are.

Is there anything I should do to notify someone about this?

M

The h2g2 link isn't an Edited Guide Entry, and cannot be used in your article.

Please find another link in the search engine, and select one that has been edited.

Also please ensure that all your links are from the Edited Guide Entries.

If you need help finding them, just yell, and I will happily assist you.

As for those links, I will forward them on to the appropriate place.

Ah, there's probably a few more non-Edited links I'll need to replace as well then. I'll whizz through the entry and fix them up tomorrow.

Cheers,

Hi M,

Also, if you can't find what you are looking for in Hootoo, you can use referenced sites from the web - as long as there are no advertising or costs involved on those links.

If you go to A25734323 and look down the right hand side of the page (in Brunel, of course) you will see a number of Referenced Sites.

If you go to the browser and type Test25734323 you will be able to see how it is done in Guide ML.

It is preferred that you use as many Edited Guide Entries where possible, if you can.
