Code Review Checklist and Guidelines for C# Developers[^] It certainly isn't an article per se. To me it seems like a collection of links. Whilst the content is valid (even though there are too many links in it for my taste) I'd consider it a Reference, not an article. @sean-ewington Opinion on that? modified 27-Nov-16 12:32pm. Re: I'll leave this here for discussion Sean Ewington24-Nov-16 4:36 Sean Ewington 24-Nov-16 4:36  Quite right. A reference. One of the few, I imagine. Fixed.

Re: Plagiarised would be article Richard MacCutchan23-Nov-16 21:38 Richard MacCutchan 23-Nov-16 21:38  Looking at his profile I wonder if a note from @SeanEwington might be enough? Re: Plagiarised would be article OriginalGriff23-Nov-16 21:50 OriginalGriff 23-Nov-16 21:50  There is a hyphen in the atsign name for Sean: @Sean-Ewington But...looking at his profile graph, he's been here a while, yes - but did almost nothing for five years and then started posting. And from what I can see, that's pretty blatant copy'n'paste work there. I'm happy with a kicking, but if Sean feels different I'm fine with that too. Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit!

Looking at OP's previous contributions I think maybe it all needs checking before he gets the final kick. But I'm happy to roll with the majority (aka your) view. Re: Plagiarised would be article Sean Ewington24-Nov-16 4:00 Sean Ewington 24-Nov-16 4:00  I've looked at his other articles. They seem to be his own work. Let's pardon a plagiarist today. I'll speak with him. If he slips again, that will be that. I'll keep an eye on him.

Re: Plagiarised would be article - reposted Midi_Mick24-Nov-16 1:25 Midi_Mick 24-Nov-16 1:25  The same fellow is back with another article - Using PIVOT with SQL Server[^] . I cannot find if this has been plagiarised or not, although the phrase "PIVOT rotates a table-valued expression by turning the unique values from one column in the expression into multiple columns in the output" appears in so many articles, Q & A's, and other bits and pieces all over the web. Not quite sure what to do with this one.

Re: Plagiarised would be article - reposted OriginalGriff24-Nov-16 1:42 OriginalGriff 24-Nov-16 1:42  I don't like it either: the "basic syntax" description looks very close to the MS documentation here: [^] The indentation is the same, most of the wording is the same. OK, there's only so many ways you can say it, but still ... And I don't like the way he isn't complaining that his previous article was rejected as plagiarised twice, either...
