The entire "Plot Summary" section is identical with the plot of the book detailed at http://www.chipeckles.com/mzb.html. Whether that web page is derived from this article or vice versa I cannot tell. I don't like it, though. I considered deleting the whole section but it occurred to me that the "chipekles" article might be the offender. I don't know what to do, {{Help me}}Wastrel Way (talk) 19:03, 29 November 2019 (UTC) EricReply
It's almost certain that we had the plot summary first. Compare the summary given for A Flame in Hali on that website, right above the one for The Alton Gift - that, too, is identical to Wikipedia's, but there the "Prologue" and "Book 3" section headings still have non-functional [edit] links that show that the site copy-pasted the content from Wikipedia, not the other way around.

Thank you. I found that other web page because "(see The Lineage of Darius-Mikhail Zabal below)" did not exist "below." So I thought that maybe that was copied from another place. I saw the [edit] link on the other page, too, but I didn't fully realize its significance. Good call. Wastrel Way (talk) 01:39, 30 November 2019 (UTC) EricReply
