[edit]

I noticed that alot of the text on this page is a direct copy and paste from the cited articles. I'm not sure if there is a policy on this, since the article is referenced.

Hopefully this is not an issue, since as you mentioned the articles are referenced. It didnt make much sense to me to try and write my own text to summarize the authors already well written work. --Onefishtwofish 13:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:COPY a direct copy without quote could lie on the border of plagiarism. Anyhow, a verbatim copy of the text, including invisible references ("see Refs. [3–6]" here) can be confusing. That is why I checked the talk page ;) Banus 08:21, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
