I think this chappie needs further investigation. Yesterday, plagiarism was reported coming from this site (with the perpetrator coming from Singapore). The article was found to be a direct replication of article on the site, which was in turn a copy of an MSDN article, loosely modified.
The author at the site uses the handle baoduy2412, and has previously posted these articles on other sites using that handle.
It all smells a little fishy to me - not reporting anything as yet, just think it needs further looking into.
Cheers,
Mick

You mean the author buaoduy2412 on the site Drunk coding?
I did a cursory look at some of his articles. It seems like some of them contain content that might be copied from various sources, mixed in with original work. I didn't find any further CodeProject articles yet, however.
Thanks,

Cool. I just thought it smelt funny, having 2 "copies" of the same source on consecutive days. Glad I said something.
Cheers,

How to Restore Northwind Database in SQL Server in 1 minute[^] is definitely not worth an article as it is just a how-to-install Northwind. But it appears to be a means of providing links to the Members own site (see link to CRUD ...).
I'm not convinced that the member needs a kicking though so I'm deliberately not posting a link to their profile to introduce a pause-and-think step.

If you look at one of his other articles, that's got several links to his site as well: 4 Ways To Use jQuery Load in Your Website[^]
And all his articles are dated the same: Feb this year.
I'd say "spam" and "spammer" myself.

I looked but did not see!
Completely agree with you.

Could it be that the articles originally were blog posts, which then again contained links to his blog?
Sometime ago I saw a post in Bugs & suggestions that someone's blog posts were converted to articles automatically by CP.

I was not sure about the author's articles and have asked in the Moderator's forum.
But I guess he is gone now before Sean will have a look.

I believe Sean can resurrect if we're wrong

I think there's some bad things in there and some "ok" things. If someone links back to their blog at the end of their article or blog entry that says "originally posted here" I think that's fine. Linking throughout the article to terms back to his website, that's a no-no.
I'll have a talk with him and see how/if he responds.

He's got another article in the queue with the same issue: 4 Ways To Use jQuery Load in Your Website[^]

Same guy, different medium.
He didn't get his forum posts through, so he tried an article instead.
