WP:COPYVIO

I spend most of my time patrolling new pages and have found one that was created by a student of this course. For the sake of WP (what I really care about), I will be bringing copyright violation focused editors to the article for a review as I feel that the article is in violation of WP:COPYVIO. For the sake of the US Education Program and this course, I thought I should point out the similarities between the article and a copyrighted source.

A bot's comparison counts 429 matches. By reading though "Organizational-Analysis-and-Planning" at referenceforbusiness.com, the similarities should be very clear and not attributable to coincidence. That it's organized in the exact same way should raise some red flags.

If an ambassador/instructor have any questions for me, I'd be happy to answer them. OlYeller^Talktome 18:29, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for this helpful comment! The students responded appropriately by editing the page as noted. 76.14.90.72 (talk) 22:35, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Cost-benefit analysis

Hi, I saw the tag on Talk:Cost-benefit analysis. I had been hoping to add something about the net present value of the tax base when making decisions about things like education (i.e., the economic value of turning would-be high school dropout taxpayers into college graduate taxpayers.) I've written about this extensively elsewhere, as have others (e.g. [1].) Perhaps we could collaborate so we don't step on each others' toes? —Cupco 18:47, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
