    Perhaps when a submitter copies a story word for word from another site they should credit the other site.

    If nothing else perhaps the the submission page should contain a "source" field. It may be too much to ask the editors to catch this sort of thing (seems they can't even eliminate dups from their own site; sigh) but a quick look at the more popular geek sites (automated or otherwise) might be in order.
