That's why in case of not site driving and not plagiarized, I still report them as "Innacurate / Misleading".

To learn something by heart to vomit out predefined answers is not a good practice and IMHO that is to mislead the newbies.

Article has been accepted.
Please report again (link is still working).

Once again a suspect article has been approved. I did not detect the plagiarism (it seems I fed the wrong sentences to Google) but that all images have no copyright / attribution. Even therefore it should have never been accepted.

Very strange - it's a different member ID, but with the same rep and all his old comments intact. Looks like a bug to me. D'Oh! | :doh:

I have seen many messages there on this reincarnation thing, and AFAIK its been fixed and fixed and fixed... and it still happens. I suspect that somewhere deep within the bowels of the site there is some long-lost code that causes this.

Who wants to go spelunking?

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
