Year Title 2000ⓘFrom Wikipedia: In 2000, Leading Edge found itself the center of a plagiarism controversy when a story it published turned out to have been plagiarized by a prison inmate submitting it as his own work. Geoffrey A. Landis' 1994 novella "The Singular Habits of Wasps", originally published in the April 1994 issue of Analog, was submitted by Phillip S. Barcia, purchased by Leading Edge, and published in issue 39. A correction notice was published in issue 40 indicating the actual author of the story. (Geoffrey A. Landis (but authorship claimed by Phillip S. Barcia) (March 2000). Stay, Douglas Alan Summers, ed. "The Singular Habits of Wasps". The Leading Edge Magazine of Science Fiction and Fantasy. No. 39. Provo, Utah: Brigham Young University. pp. 5–28. ISSN 1049-5983.) See also this page.) This version of the story was edited to remove swearing, sexual content, and some violence in order to comply with standards at Brigham Young University. The Singular Habits of Wasps [as by Phillip S. Barcia]
