Not too picky at all: your first link / sentence shows the whole paragraph copied.
Plagiarised, and "troll/abusive".

It's reposted: A Basic Introduction of how to write Unit Test for Beginners in C#[^]
And the "author" is: RaviRanjanKr - Professional Profile[^]

I sampled a dozen random sentences. Each one comes, verbatim, from a different source. Definitely plagiarized.

He has some items more that should be checked:
Tip/Tricks[^]

@Sean-Ewington you might want to have some words with him. Due to "age" and reputation, I strongly think he is going to complain / beg for his account.

This: How to use Wix setup tools set create small installer and insert data from wizard - CodeProject[^]

From this: Member 12883591 - Professional Profile[^]
Is copied from the "official" documentation: Windows Installer XML (WiX)[^]
Search both for "WiX supports a broad spectrum of Windows Installer features. In addition, WiX also offers a set of built-in custom actions that can be used and incorporated in Windows Installer packages." and you'll see what I mean.

Serverless computing using Azure Functions - Part1

Comerical products are not allowed to be the subject of an article, as far as I recognize.

How one has to handle the above?

This one is a little tricky. The basic rule is that first party is OK, third party is not. However, this post doesn't fit tips and tricks because it is essentially an overview of Azure Functions, rather than a solution to a problem, so I have removed it.
