Below moved from main page... Davelane 21:39, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The site http://www.eurofreehost.com/ appears to be a mirror of Wikipedia; each page claims to be under the GFDL but I found no link to Wikipedia on either a random article (http://www.eurofreehost.com/co/Compulsator.html) or the main page. Also, no Wiki source seems to be available, specifically violating the intent of the GFDL as I see it. Finally, the pages have no link to the text of the GFDL. I've sent a more-or-less standard complaint letter (although I didn't claim to be delighted to see another out-of-date broken mirror of Wikipedia) but it was taken before I made any major contributions, so if someone with more seniority would like to take over, that'd be great. Andrew 04:00, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC) (Update: mail to webmaster@www.eurofreehost.com bounced; I'll leave this for now, awaiting comment from others. Andrew 04:08, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC))

Thus, it is possible to surf the previews without even knowing there is a larger article or where the text comes from. The engine claims copyright. However, there is a vague notice that "Portions of these search results are used under the GNU Free Documentation License. You may redistribute it, verbatim or modified, providing that you comply with the terms of the GFDL."; there is no way to tell what "portions" are being referred to.

  • Currently under attack from some Wikipedia users, as they see it as offensive Nazi site.
  • Some have been blanking pseudodoxia's copies of their user pages as the word wikipedia has been replaced with pseudodoxia in many places (everywhere?), which may mislead people into believing that those users are associated with pseudodoxia.

    • We should ask them to add meta noindex so we can remove the Google cached copies among the search engines... -- WB 08:20, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Details Appears to have removed all Wikipedia articles. Now redirects all traffic to Amazon affiliate page. Probably complete copy from end of May 2004 (contained 5 out of the 5 random articles I tried). Every page mentions "based in parts on the wikipedia project, the free encyclopedia, which will stay free always." Every article page contains mention of the GNU FDL (but the link is broken). No authors mentioned, page history is last edit only. No images
