When you click the "spammer" link on the user's homepage, look at the number that is returned. If it is greater than 1 then it has probably been reported already.

~~This article: Windows Azure Active Directory[^]~~ : Gone

The "Identities everywhere" image is a cropped copy of slide 20 from: Integrating your on-premises Active Directory with Azure and Office 365[^]

The slide in question[^]

EDIT: Copyright issue, not plagiarism, as Jochen pointed out below. D'Oh! | :doh:

I tried a search on parts of the opening paragraph but couldn't find anything. I marked it unclear/incomplete as I don't think it really explains much.

Richard Deeming27-Jun-17 1:16

Yeah, I couldn't find a source for the text either.

But that image is definitely plagiarised.

Then maybe the author just needs to cite it correctly.

Good spot.

But such is a copyright violation which should be reported as format/layout issue according to Sean (would be good to have a "Copyright Violation" report option).

But there are sentences copied:

Quote:
With few clicks, Azure AD can be integrated with an existing Windows Server Active Directory. So using Directory Sync organizations will have ability to leverage their existing on-premises identity investment.

What is Azure Active Directory? | Microsoft Docs[^]:
Additionally, with just four clicks, Azure AD can be integrated with an existing Windows Server Active Directory, giving organizations the ability to leverage their existing on-premises identity investments to manage access to cloud based SaaS applications.

Thanks for pointing that out.

The article's back in the queue without the offending image.

Now the only question is, does that sentence fall under the "Slightly Modifying Words"[^] umbrella?

It does fall there and requires reference. So I have reported the new article already.

And there seem to be more:

Quote:
Windows Azure Active Directory is a multi-tenant service that provides enterprise-level identity and access management for the cloud.

Creating Azure Active Directory: Part One[^]:
As you know, Windows Azure Active Directory is a multi-tenant Service, that provides an enterprise level identity and access management for the Cloud, built to support global scale, reliability and availability
