I just reverted this article to the state it existed in before it was the subject of an educational assignment at Mount Allison University. I do not have access to all of the book sources used, so I cannot verify that it was entirely plagiaristic, but enough of it was clear plagiarism that I feel the need to err on the side of caution by reverting all changes made in the entire timeframe. I also deleted large parts of this talk page because they also contained copyright violations, or very likely copyright violations.

The specific plagiarism that jumps out at me is first found in this edit where User:Jemacleod, a student at MAU, copies wholesale text from this source. The student later added a footnote citing this source, but that doesn't make it any less a copyright violation. In the same edit, the student also directly cut and paste content from this source in to the article. Both of these are clearly instances of plagiarism - no attempt at paraphrasing was even made (not that that would have excused the problem.) Later edits by non-students changed some of the wording, but imo, not sufficiently so as to not still be copyright violations.

I do not have access to all of the book sources cited, so I cannot check to see if the same problems exist in the sections sourced to books, but I suspect strongly that they do. For this reason, I have blanket reverted the entire page. If you do have access to the book sources used and you can confirm 100% that those sections were not plagiarized, please feel free to reintroduce them, but please keep in mind that anyone who reintroduces content is assuming responsibility for it not being a copyright violation.
