More Plagiarism---

[icarus]

Our Primer to the Dark Arts plagiarist, WhereTheGobblinsGo has also plagiarized --

First Signs of Magic: Hermione Granger -- stolen here Didn't even bother to rename it
First Signs of Magic: Draco Malfoy -- stolen here Didn't rename it either
First Signs of Magic: Severus Snape -- stolen here Didn't renem this one either

I've taken screencaps, and am in the process of contacting the web admin. Please review the stories and tell the plagiarist to take them down. The plagiarist needs to know that she has been caught, and very quickly. These were posted today. A quick response will help convince the plagiarist that this is something she can't get away with. No need for bitter anger. Firmness is more important.

trevelyan_s, thank you for finding this and bringing it to my attention.


ETA: I've heard from the webadmin at hpfandom.net (within less than half an hour). She recognizes the stories, read them when they came out, and is contacting the site owner to either have them or the author removed.

Well. This is one way to find one of the few archives I haven't posted to. Frankly, this is the main reason why I post everywhere.

My vote is for crazy attention-seeking trolling stepping up a gear beyond plagiarism, but, you know, maybe there are people in this world who'd call twins Galen and Gabriel. Good luck with getting this all sorted out.

The webadmin at hpfandom.net has been great. They've already taken down the story. SilverSnitch might be a little slower.

I'm just wondering where else WhereTheGobblinsGo might have plagiarised this fic. I'm supposed to be writing a paper today, getting caught up on Sanskrit, and doing a rough draft of a Rhetorical paper. I don't have time for this.

Or set up for excuse when she's caught?

Wacky. Some people have way more time than I do.

If they need something to do, I have a pile of dishes that need to be done, laundry to be brought upstairs, a couple of papers and a ton of Sanskrit to catch up on. They can feed the cat, too. Update my website, help me with the redesign of the art pages, help me get caught up on reviews, upload music for Out Of Bounds -- honest, I could put them to work.
