Adaptive blueprinting

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

First off, the entire article seems to have been copied from another site. You can find it (or very large parts of it)on various other sites like: http://www.ned.com/group/ab/ws/index/

Is this an issue with copyright or plagiarism?

Secondly, this article, to me at least, sounds like an advertisement for a product.

Lastly, notability? Buddy23Lee (talk) 22:55, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unless evidence of notsbility is found. The nonencyclopedic tone "Our goal" etc could be fixed by editing if the subject is notable. If it is a copyvio, it needs to be stubbed, but sometimes the other site is a mirror of what was in Wikipedia first. Edison (talk) 23:29, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Good point. At the abovementioned site however, the article was posted a day before someone copied most, if not all of it, to Wikipedia. I guess without citations to an original we'll never really know. My guess is that whoever crafted this marketing gem wanted a Wikipedia page to bump up the crediblity.

Delete No evidence this term is used by anyone other than its creators. Cmprince (talk) 15:08, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
