I guess the answer is "Yes." Needless to say, the wikipedia types are the easiest to bust.

When I was living at home, my mom would occasionally show me a piece from one of her students and ask me.. Does this look odd to you? Then she'd show me something else they'd written. Like hell this English 20-2 student knows how to use a colon properly! So I go on google and type in the first sentence of a paragraph and what do I find? The whole paper!
It's shocking sometimes. My mom wonders the same thing.. Do these kids think I don't know what google is? Or that I don't have the internet?
