Website taking our worksheets
|

Hi everyone,
I just came across a post on Facebook advertising this website which is full of worksheets from esl printables.http://www.engworksheets.com/
Im not quite sure how to go about, none of my worksheets are concerned, but I recognized some from our members. I just thought you might like to know.

Hi Sara I took a look at the site and yes, it is filled with worksheets from eslprintables. Didn �t see any of mine but there lots of them by other members and no credit is given. I don �t know what can be done but I �m sure Victor will. |

Hi, I strongly recommend all the members affected to fill in the Google dmca removal request: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/legal-removal-request?complaint_type=1&pid=0 If there are enough requests, google will remove the website from their search results, which is almost as making it dissapear. |

It seems that the worksheets were copied (probably) from islcollective, because even the description of the site is very similar. Anyway, the real authors can send a DMCA removal request if they didn �t allow engworksheets.com to publish their work. |

A couple of my worksheets are there and I didn �t share them on islcollective, so they were taken from eslprintables. |

Hi, I �m a member of iSL Collective and none of my worksheets have been stolen. I �ve checked the site and I cannot recognise them as isl collective wss. I think that they have been stolen from eslprintables. Rosa |

Sara is right and mora88, too. That website is full of worksheets from eslprintables! Almost each Search is leading to our website, to the worksheets shared here in 2009 and 2010. Here are only some examples but the list could be continued and continued. The titles of the wss haven�t been changed so they can be easily found there to compare. htunde zailda Katiana roxette ivka.h mariaolimpia ilona mavic15 moravc evadp75 silvia.patti

Oh, bugger! They didn �t steal any of mine. What �s wrong with them?  
Edit: sorry for the flippant nature of this post, end of long day. I think it is annoying and I hope it gets dealt with. |

The "About section" of the offending site is identical, word for word, of the "About section" on ISLcollective, right down to Peter �s phrase of "Bless up". A very good example of plagiarism!
I hope Peter does something about it. |
