And same attitude towards the PDO tutorial plagiarism (https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object_pdo_tutorial/d6t672q?context=3 https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object...)

Oh and the owner of the site partakes in the plagiarism as well?

Really really sketchy
- w3clan 10y agoHi RubyPinch, 1. Python Plagiarism : I have send message to author who created python tutorial, but have not received any message.Enough time has been given to him/her to act on copied content. 2. About PDO, I just see this message :- https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object_pdo_tutorial/d6t672q https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object... and i have responded accordingly. --- 3. And yes, about my terms and condition plagiarism, I actually copied from here :- http://rocky.usercv.com/post/13/terms-condition http://rocky.usercv.com/post/13/terms-condition and that's my product too, but content was written by my friend on usercv who actually is CA , but i literally had no Idea, whatsoever , as those content in usercv was strictly copied from mycv terms and condition page. That is horrible start for me and i won't blame any one , i should have done myself and Now, i have whole night to fix everything up as quickly as possible, before i see my self in errata list, and i don't belong to those list. Also, I have started getting feeling of restricting the idea of the w3clan platform to self , as i think, plagiarism is never going to stop in such platform. People will keep on copying content from other source to here. If any one has better idea on how this can be achieved with out plagiarism, you are heartily welcome, else i am shutting down user registration option forever.
- colshrapnel 10y agoLooks like the guy set out to work of re-phrasing the texts. Look what he did with PDO: The old version - http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:RQsMH6xaK14J:pdo.w3clan.com/tutorial/167/why-pdo+&cd=1&hl=ru&ct=clnk&gl=ru&client=opera http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:RQsMH6x... And the face-lifted one - http://pdo.w3clan.com/tutorial/167/why-pdo http://pdo.w3clan.com/tutorial/167/why-pdo I bet his synonyms thesaurus is smoking right now.
- w3clan 10y agoHi colshrapnel, Yes, the author has said me, he will be rephrasing the content and will make it unique. I can't help much. I am sending mail to python author now to respond it back and even if he agrees to rephrase the content. The contents will not go down. Also, I am developing "reporting module" where original author can report the copied or whole content to author with reference URL and until author reacts, copied content will remain hidden. After author reaction, if copied contents still remain there, I as an admin will hide the content. That is all , i can fight for plagiarism option in w3clan portal for users.
- colshrapnel 10y agoJust re-phasing doesn't make the work any original. It is still plagiarism. I demand that all stolen parts were not rewritten but removed.
- w3clan 10y agoHi, I have updated the reply here :- https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object_pdo_tutorial/d6umnf3 https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/4ynd0e/php_data_object... Author has replied me back with, "He is going to rewrite the lines that is copied from different sources, and he have right to do , as every one learns form some where and implements it else where", and i believe, he is absolutely right, he has right to RE-WRITE the content and mention the source URL (if author wants) from where he has learnt or gather information to share to community. Plus, I have already mentioned, I am developing better plagiarism reporting module, which will allow original authors to report the content to author and admin. I am working on plagiarism reporting tool in platform. Thanks
