Split section

I propose that we split the section "Notable fraudsters" into a new article called List of notable fraudsters. The current section is a good beginning framework. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 00:27, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Academic fraud in China

The China section generally seems to single out the country for mudslinging rather than describing the laws in place. As for the specific claim of "fraud in academia", that falls in the scope of a separate Wikipedia article, "scientific misconduct". This article's lead is clear that it is about fraud as a legal wrong against a victim. It is about a concept, not a word in all possible uses. 73.71.251.64 (talk) 19:45, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Academic fraud should be a separate article. It is not "fraud" in the sense contemplated by this article, and not all academic fraud has to do with the sciences at all. BD2412 T 21:59, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
