Mole removal? WTF | :WTF:

Are we talking furry little buggers with squeaky voices that whistle when bitten, or the bodily imperfection, I wonder?

This: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=109391&aid=694660[^]

Four months, five articles, one "best-of-the-month" award, and five tips. And now I have to fine-tooth-comb the lot...joy!

[edit]
I dunno: This first one I look at: Create First Data WareHouse[^]
Has a chunk that starts out word for word the same as Barnes and Noble: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 resource kit (Microsoft Press)[^]
His:

Developing a Data Warehouse

The phases of a data warehouse project listed below are similar to those of most database projects, starting with identifying requirements and ending with executing the T-SQL Script to create data warehouse:

Identify and collect requirements
Design the dimensional model
Execute T-SQL queries to create and populate your dimension and fact tables

Identify and Collect Requirements
...

Microsoft Press:

Developing a Data Warehouse: Details

The phases of a data warehouse project listed below are similar to those of most database projects, starting with identifying requirements and ending with deploying the system:

Identify and gather requirements
Design the dimensional model
Develop the architecture, including the Operational Data Store (ODS)
Design the relational database and OLAP cubes
Develop the data maintenance applications
Develop analysis applications
Test and deploy the system

Identify and Gather Requirements

And it continues in a similar vein, with pretty much the same topics in the same order.

Thoughts? Should this be marked as plagiarism as well? It looks to me as if he was reading the book and paraphrasing as he went, but I could be wrong.

To be honest I have not deep-checked the article, but the snippet you posted here and the fact that are no quote-blocks and no reference links to the sources but he does have "for more info check my other article XXX" with links...

On the other hand, he has written (at least in what I checked) quite text himself, so it is a messy mix.

I would say, we should give him a very serious warning and a deadline to correct all his doubtfull articles and tips.

If not done... then clean up

But with poorer formatting and a couple of additions to try an hide it...after a year and a half, that's the best he can do?

Is this teh same one that was showing here eyes the other day? I think they have a rather poor opinion of developers if they think that kind of drivel will distract us... Sigh | :sigh:

Oh, it wasn't the same avatar picture, it's just the use of a female name and "look-at-this-boys" picture that it's unlikely that any real female in the industry would want to use: it's hard enough for women to be taken seriously in this business without pandering to sexual stereotypes right from the off.

I'd suggest you ask Alison, but that might not be a good idea... Unsure | :~
