Wikia plagiarizing UOGuide
Posted: Tue Sep 08, 2015 11:05 pm
Hello UOGuide community,
I just wanted to let you all know that a Wikia poweruser has been directly copying many UOGuide articles in order to generate content at ultima.wikia.com. Plenty of examples can currently be seen on its recent activity page, and I'm sure there will be more to come. This editor has been doing the same to us at wiki.ultimacodex.com, but unfortunately our creative commons license means there is nothing we can do to stop it.
However, I see that UOGuide expressly prohibits the duplication of its content without permission, so I thought you would like to know this is occurring.
