Parallel Excerpts from Schlenke (1986) and Homolka (1992) for Public Verification of Plagiarism Allegations Reported in FAZ (2023)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This upload contains scanned excerpts (page images) from two academic works. Only the pages necessary for documentation and comparative analysis are reproduced, and all sources are fully attributed. The material is provided solely for scholarly analysis and for public verification of previously published allegations of academic misconduct in the press. Any personal data (e.g., signatures or student numbers), where present, have been redacted. This document does not itself draw any substantive conclusion as to plagiarism; it reproduces selected material solely to enable independent comparison. The context for this documentation is the report by Heike Schmoll in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung: Schmoll, Heike. 2023. “Ein Plagiat von mehr als 60 Seiten.” Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 17 February 2023. (last access: 30 May 2025). The two academic works reproduced in excerpt are: Dorothee Schlenke. “Normativität und Geschichte”: Zum Verhältnis von Liberaler Theologie und Judentum um die Jahrhundertwende anhand ausgewählter Beispiele der jüdischen Debatte um Adolf von Harnacks “Das Wesen des Christentums.”Unpublished thesis in partial fulfilment of program requirements in the field of Systematic Theology for the First Theological Examination of the Evangelical Church in Hesse and Nassau, University of Munich, 11 August 1986. Walter Homolka. From Essence to Existence: Leo Baeck and Religious Identity: Continuity and Change in Liberal Jewish and Protestant Theology.PhD thesis, King’s College London. Supervisor: Professor Christoph Schwöbel. 1992. Contents Scanned image of p. 25 of the main text of Schlenke (1986) Scanned image of p. 8 of the endnotes of Schlenke (1986) Scanned image of p. 97 of Homolka (1992) A synopsis table juxtaposing German text from Schlenke (1986) with a corresponding English passage from Homolka (1992), including the relevant endnotes and footnotes for each The purpose of this upload is to make publicly available the primary material necessary to evaluate the comparison at issue.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
