Right, this isn't (or shouldn't be) a call for DT members to act. If Ratimov plagiarized something, it's the job of mods to ban him for that--and I don't read Russian, so it's hard for me to judge Ratimov as far as citing sources in that language.
So here we have the Russian moderator essentially vouching for Ratimov, saying he did in fact cite his sources--or at least that's what it looks like to me.
I'd be interested to hear from others on this. I don't know if it's a witch hunt or not.
I did not say that there are no sources, they are for "formality"
, at the very bottom.
Sources are always given at the end. That's not a formality but its a correct way of posting any thing which is taken from any other source.
I think you are just wasting your time here and if you had the confidence in yourself, you would have dare to post with your original account.
