Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Clubroot. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100723151350/http://nu-distance.unl.edu/homer/disease/Hort/Crucifer/CrClbRoot.html to http://nu-distance.unl.edu/homer/disease/hort/crucifer/CrClbRoot.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Tag: Copy-Pasted Content

Hi all! I found some copy-pasted content earlier today in the second paragraph of this article. It is from this source, which I found as a footnote at the end of the first section, with no indication that it was a direct quote.

I have formatted the copy-pasted content as a properly-cited block quote for the moment, but this should probably be rewritten when possible, ideally with multiple sources.

It is very possible that there are other copy-pasted sections in this article that haven't been noticed yet, especially with the missing inline citations. Because of this, I've added the CopyPaste tag. It seems like it would be a good idea to go through paragraphs with few inline citations (or only one source cited repeatedly) to make sure that they aren't copy and pasted, but I'm also very new at this so I don't know what is typically done in this sort of situation.

Thanks! I've rewritten the paragraph you found. I'll go through the rest of the article to see if I can find any more plagiarized text. Em-as-in-emily (talk) 19:44, 17 February 2026 (UTC)

The violation you found was added in the first revision of the article, and that editor didn't add any significant text after this. I also rewrote the rest of the remaining text from that revision just in case it was copy-pasted from the referenced book, which I couldn't check. I checked the inline citations and ran Earwig's Copyvio Detector and didn't find any more instances of plagiarism, so I think it's safe enough to remove the template (which I've done).

Tag: Missing Information

This article should be updated with more recent information. In the past 10-15 years, there have been big advances in the scientific understanding of clubroot disease and its management. The pathogen itself also changes rapidly, which has changed many of the disease management strategies. Here's a list of some topics that I think could be good to update or add:

• clubroot-resistant canola cultivars: these are the main method of disease management in many cases, and also have introduced challenges of their own
• resistance-breaking pathotypes: the pathogen evolved in response to selective pressures associated with the clubroot-resistant cultivars. A major challenge, but also the topic of a lot of research.
• Pathogen life cycle: cross-check with current info to ensure that this is accurate, especially any numerical values, like optimal pH or resting spore half-life.
• Economic importance and total land cover: these numbers have likely changed
• Fungicides and other chemical control measures: these have likely changed, inlcuding the legislation around them
• Liming: check sources for this as it has been researched more
• In the section on Clubroot in Alberta/the Canadian Prairies, could mention how the affected area has shifted over time.
