1021578771 2021-05-05T14:05:39Z Iatestarwars /* Plagiarism incident in 2013 */ Deleted section as there are no current or reliable sources which can accurately verify this information.
1021534957 2021-05-05T07:12:14Z Iatestarwars /* Plagiarism incident in 2013 */Removed the two quoted sources as both sites never showed evidence of Ward's plagiarisms (potentially libelous). A statement with no evidence makes these sources extremely unreliable. Updated title of section to reflect the changes.
1021417563 2021-05-04T16:12:56Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism in 2013 */Improved the readability of these paragraphs by streamlining the quotes.
1013975551 2021-03-24T14:05:54Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism in 2013 */Removed Write Out Loud as it contained an out of date source (Flask and Pen) which is defunct and not archived. This makes it unreliable and should not be used. Tidied up the first and second paragraphs to improve readability.
1012945026 2021-03-19T05:12:59Z WikiCleanerBot v2.04b - [[User:WikiCleanerBot#T20|Bot T20 CW#61]] - Fix errors for [[WP:WCW|CW project]] (Reference before punctuation)
1012670890 2021-03-17T17:44:56Z Iatestarwars /* Career */Removed link to the East Riding poetry competition as the archived link doesn't display the winning poem (or any poems for that matter). Removed link to the Poetry Review as Ward was written out of the revised edition (see https://poetrysociety.org.uk/publications/mapping-the-delta-volume-102-no-2-summer-2012-poetry-review/)
1012670118 2021-03-17T17:40:21Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism in 2013 */Added year in section category to emphasize all allegations were in 2013. Condensed La Petite Zine quote for readability.
1012460895 2021-03-16T14:13:47Z Narky Blert Link to DAB page repaired
1012124390 2021-03-14T19:04:56Z Iatestarwars /* Career */Minor change - got rid of 'a number of' as there is no evidence Ward has translated a number of poets. Clarified for conciseness.
1012108032 2021-03-14T17:12:37Z Iatestarwars /* Career */Removed Baudelaire reference as there is no evidence Ward translated him. Added links to back up Amado Nervo claim and added a link to a review Ward published through Rattle.
1011146277 2021-03-09T08:31:52Z Iatestarwars /* Career */Added link to Kenyon Review mention
1008744010 2021-02-24T21:03:19Z CommanderWaterford Adding local [[Wikipedia:Short description|short description]]: "British Poet, Writer", overriding Wikidata description "Poet, Writer, accused of plagiarism" ([[Wikipedia:Shortdesc helper|Shortdesc helper]])
1008742369 2021-02-24T20:52:47Z Iatestarwars /* Career */Changed title to Career as early career would highlight everything in Ward's earliest time as a writer. The section doesn't, so a broader title is more appropriate.
1008741915 2021-02-24T20:49:58Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism */Section on the Mort poem edited as it was potentially libellous. Ward added two more words to the title than Mort's, for example, according to the source listed. Sixth Finch section edited to improve readability. Not sure a large quote is required.
1008686897 2021-02-24T15:06:55Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism */Removed Bridport section as page has been removed from the current website. Changed Redheaded Stepchild 'magazine' to poetry journal to improve accuracy.
1008686121 2021-02-24T15:01:40Z Iatestarwars /* Early career */Changed Iota link to a visible page on the Poetry Archives website
1007495461 2021-02-18T12:39:00Z Iatestarwars I don't think it is necessary to mention plagiarism in the opening intro as it has it's own section in the main page. Further research indicates Ward may have only plagiarised only 15 poems at the most (Ira Lightman says "I looked through 300 or 400,” he said. “I found about 15 that were dodgy.” It was this that taught him his golden rule: “Plagiarists never do it once.” https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/sep/09/poetry-plagiarism-copying-maya-angelou-ira-lightman-will-storr) out of a c...
1005628795 2021-02-08T17:36:29Z Iatestarwars Removed source as it is potentially libellous. The writer said "[...] and has since been revealed as the plagiarist of more than a dozen other poets." without providing or linking to any evidence supporting the claim.
1005605414 2021-02-08T15:13:21Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism */Fixed link
1005605006 2021-02-08T15:10:02Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism */Removed Guardian source as it is out of date and lists inaccurate sources such as the Western Morning News. The articles which appeared in 2013 are no longer available, nor have been archived.
1005594893 2021-02-08T13:57:08Z Iatestarwars /* Accusations of plagiarism */Added January rather than early for clarity
1005594674 2021-02-08T13:55:07Z Iatestarwars Added 'in 2013' as no allegations have surfaced in the years since then.
1005594316 2021-02-08T13:52:22Z Iatestarwars Removed the NY Times article as it contains several inaccuracies and out of date sources e.g. Ward winning the Exmoor Society's Bourne Hope Prize in 2011 rather than 2012, the Buxton page listing Ward is no longer there.

1004553626 2021-02-03T04:34:44Z Iatestarwars Removed reference to Valley Press as his book is not going to be published by them. Ward is not listed as an author on their website.
1004418925 2021-02-02T14:15:26Z Iatestarwars Both the archived and cached page no longer exist - removed dead link
1004378940 2021-02-02T09:24:08Z Iatestarwars The archived page at The Yale Journal for Humanities in Medicine doesn't mention Ward's plagiarism. It also includes Ward's email address, which could lead to breaches of privacy.
1004378412 2021-02-02T09:19:13Z Iatestarwars The Monongahela Review link in the reference doesn't mention Ward's plagiarism. It just says "The Monongahela Review ran from 2007 to 2014. It was primarily a labor of love created, designed, and ran by me, its editor, Luke Bartolomeo. With the help of friends as readers, we were able to release nine issues. I have put the project on indefinite hiatus[...]"
1004377444 2021-02-02T09:10:18Z Iatestarwars Removed word Education from section title as the paragraph doesn't mention it
