I'm pretty sure that counts as plagiarism, and the description should be rewritten.
I believe it isn't plagiarism in the legal sense (as it would be fair use), but it's being a little bitch (in so far as it's plagiarism in the informal sense, as it's passing off someone else's work as your own) so it shouldn't be allowed.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.It's not fair use, and it is plagiarism. We have a dedicated cleanup topic for this stuff.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Removed the offending part. There's now very little description left; can someone who has read the book (I haven't) expand a bit? (Also asked in the cleanup thread.)
On Literature.A Little Life, almost the entire description is a copy-paste of the text on the back cover of the book.
Is this against our rules (specifically re: plagiarism) or is it o.k. because it comes from the work/creator themselves?
