re: #159 Good Morning

Can you plagiarize Wikipedia? There’s no original work, and the articles are basically a bland rehash of press releases and what was written elsewhere. It is a nice resource, but not original writing.

Well, if the definition of plagiarize is to “pass someone else’s off work as one’s own” then yes, you can plagiarize Wikipedia unless you are the original article of the article or one of the primary contributors.

That being said, very few politicians write their own speeches, and one sentence in one speech isn’t something I would harp on.
