GeneralPlagiarised would be Tip Pin
OriginalGriff27-Jul-17 1:28

A "this one got through" message lead me to this article: Software Design Principles[^]
From this: Sanjay Kumar Dwivedi - Professional Profile[^]
And there are two messages below the spam post which accuse the author of plagiarising this tip from here: Design Principles | Object Oriented Design[^]
The problem is that I can't see any date on the "source" article, but it does look a lot more "Polished" and lacks the grammatical errors in the version here, and adds a references link which kinda leans me towards the "that is the original document" feeling. It also links to other parts of the same site which explain the summary sections in much better detail, and which share a "voice style" with the header document, which the tip here lacks.

On balance, I'm prepared to run with "Plagiarised" and "Plagiarist" on this one.

Your thoughts, folks?
