Perhaps we should define what plagiarism IS before we say something is/isn't

Plagiarism: The unattributed use of another person's ideas, words, or patterns of organization.

To be extremely specific, there's global, patchwork, incremental, intentional, unintentional, or paraplage plagiarism.

I'm not sure where BFF stands in regards to wikia's licensing on this topic, it doesn't seem like it would hold much water in this case since this is a fan site afterall.

However, if a user is concerned because there appears to be intentional copying of his/her article by another member, (remember, that goes for ideas, words, and organization of thought) that issue should be addressed. I saw the articles before Primarch revised them and I would say the concern was not unfounded.

@Primarch: Since this involves one of my articles I may be a bit biased in this case. I will PM you in regards to this topic.
