No, it was not my article.
I came across a case where I wanted to warn readers about dangerous lie on the technical matter and, in discussion, faced the accusation of the article author by the original author in plagiarism. I think this it should not be tolerated and suggested the original author would file the complain, after through check up of the fact.
(Besides, the article has poorly negative value due to technical aspects, anyway )
But after that, I wasn't sure the way to report on plagiarism. So, what should be done?
Thank you,

Each article has a report flag icon, which when you mouse over it gives the option to report an article as plagiarized. You can even fill in additional information in a comment box; such information might include a link to the original article or a link to the post in which the supposed original author made a claim that the author was plagiarized. I assume that when you put those comments in when you report an article, the plagiarism is looked into and verified.

A-ah, the red flag was on top, not where the voting is, one the opposite end. I failed to see it after two or three views.
Thank you very much,

This is the right place, but you need to provide a link to the article and citations to show where it's plagiarised from. At that point the duty hamsters spring into life.

Thank you. This is was a preliminary question. I'm not an author of the plagiarized work, and such author did not yet share the link to the original work. It was my suggestion to him.

Sorry for bringing this[^] to your attention. I was editing one post on Q&A and got this error when saving. I did not modify the title so I wonder why I got the error.
The subject must be between 20 and 250 characters.
I'm not sure if this validation is already on the create question page, but if it's not, can we please include it?
Signature construction in progress. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Which post were you editing? Some snuck through the minimum requirements and are now being caught on edit.

This one.[^] I had to put a spacebar on the end of the title to save my revisions on the post.

I understand now. I thought the validation was not on the create question page.

The validation for tags also seem to fail for some posts. This[^] question has no tags initially but when I edited it, the validation seem to have worked.

I saw Seans article he posted earlier and then deleted within a few minutes.
During the the time of it being posted I tried to post a message to it, but it failed and I was told the article had been deleted.
However, I noticed in my recent rep list, that there is still 1 point awarded.
Seems like a bug to me.

Did the message posting fail or did re-loading the article to view the message you posted fail? A subtle but important difference.
Just because the item you contributed to was deleted doesn't mean you didn't contribute, so we give you the points.

Hmmm.
When the message was posted it immediately went to the "article was deleted on" page. Which was probably a redirect after the post went through, so it probably got through just before it was deleted.
Probably not a bug then, and just perfect timing!

The Soapbox allows you to stand up and have a rant, tell a bad joke, complain about someone or post stuff that that may not be appropriate for reading at work and/or isn't strictly IT industry related. It is rated M. Do not post anything offensive or which breaches the Terms of Use. Do not post programming questions (use the programming forums for that) and please don't post ads.
Seems like the part about not posting offensive stuff contradicts the beginning.

It's like the Amex charge cards. In theory there is no credit limit, but in practice there is. Some people can go up to 20K, others can go as high as 100K.

What's my limit then?

You'd have to find out I guess
Knowing you, I'd say it's not likely you'd ever cross your undocumented limit!

Because I'm too prudish or too smart to ever try?

They do have a credit limit... who told you otherwise (except for black cards)? ...they just don't put it on statements... and it's a soft limit, meaning they can increase it on the spot.

Yeah they do. They won't tell you though

They want you to feel wealthy..
Maybe you'll spend more...

Strictly speaking they don't have a credit limit since they are not credit cards. They will, however, sometimes limit the amount they will allow you to spend on a single transaction. Much depends on your history of spending and paying back.
