Proposed deletion of Black copper

The article Black copper has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This is a disambiguation page which has Tenorite, which never mention the name, and a non-existent page. Dismbigustions should only be when there are pages to differentiate, not non-existent ones or those of zero apparent relevance.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Thanks for letting me know. See talk page for further discussion—I'd like your feedback on the alternatives detailed there. Preimage (talk) 04:51, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Plagiarism

I read your analysis of the plagiarism of some chemistry articles by the Turkish company's website. My guess is that other wikichem prose has been plagiarized in theses, journals, and textbooks. Maybe I should try out the Earwig app. --Smokefoot (talk) 14:44, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! I'm far from an expert on scientific misconduct, but it's important work that's not for the faint-hearted. Best of luck if you do decide to proceed further.

NB. The most organized anti-plagiarism effort looks to be the Vroniplag collaboration (with an initial focus on PhD dissertations of politicians and other prominent figures, though they've since branched out). German-language website, but they might have some useful pointers/resources. Preimage (talk) 02:42, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
