From: Robert Wolven <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 14:27:43 -0500 Jeffrey; The sentence you say was plagiarized from the healthculturesociety wiki site actually appears, along with the following sentence, at the WHO site cited in the reference: http://www.who.int/topics/gender/en/index.html The two sentences should have been set in quotes, but at least the original(?) source was cited in the article. (This isn't meant as a defense of Social Sciences Directory, about which I know little.) -- Bob Wolven On 11/28/2012 5:59 PM, LIBLICENSE wrote: > From: "Beall, Jeffrey"<[log in to unmask]> > Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2012 18:33:22 -0700 > > In the interest of fairness, I think people should know that I have > documented plagiarism in the first issue (vol. 1, no. 1) of Social > Sciences Directory.
