Plagiarism[edit]

This article is pretty much a word-for-word copy and paste of the WebMD article: [1]Jasont82 17:14, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

There is a nice textbook style reference at the end of the article that made me suspect plagirism. --Kerwin15 (talk) 23:02, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads-up. The only part of this article I could find that matched any part of the WebMD version was the Symptom section. Am I missing something or was that what you were referring to? I've revised the relevant section (and added a ref). -- MarcoTolo 17:37, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The Incidence and Transmission sections are also copied from the WebMD article with minor changes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasont82 21:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC) (talkcontribs) 11:45, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've pulled both sections for now as potential copyvios (not that I don't believe you, 206.246.142.100, just that WebMD is giving me timeouts and I can't check it myself to fix the problems). -- MarcoTolo 14:41, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Popular Culture[edit]

You know, you don't have to do everything the Comics Curmudgeon says. =) Powers T 14:16, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hah. After reading that I came here to revert the inevitable addition to the article. And did so three times before I decided to give up for a day or two. The other pop culture references are weak, but the Spiderman one is extraordinarily weak. It's a brief, nonsensical, mention in a daily comic script. There's been about a hundred daily newspaper comics strips produced every day for about a hundred years, if everything they mentioned was automatically a notable pop-culture reference, every article would have a dozen comic strip links at the bottom.
WP:IPC proposes three "tests" for whether a pop culture reference is valid, The Spiderman comic clearly fails. In fact, going by references alone, the only one that passes the tests is the Bob Dylan one! It's the only one that asserts any real-world significance and/or third party references! (I wouldn't be surprised if a third-party mention could be found for the Johnny Cash one, but I wouldn't know where to look. The song's lyrics are clearly not 'third-party'.)
