Increasingly I am finding articles that are copied from other wikiHow articles. Case in point: http://www.wikihow.com/Know-if-Your-Sis-Bff-Like-U from http://www.wikihow.com/Know-if-a-Girl-Likes-You Should these be marked as copyvios or just nfd|dup?

Perhaps a speedy of one? I wonder if these were attempts to change the title?

Speedy is my weapon of choice for any article that is clearly offensive or plagiarized. I detest the long NFD voting process…

Wouldn’t it be a dup? There’s also http://www.wikihow.com/Ask-Out-Your-Sister’s-Best-Friend

Duplicate, yes.

With attribution to the original, it would comply with the CC license, so the copyright issue is easily solved. But as there’s no original content (sorry, copying two embedded Google ads for fraudulent products doesn’t count), then it should be either redirected (only if titles are equivalent, these aren’t) or deleted as dup.

If something is copied from a wikiHow article, it is a duplicate. If something is copied from somewhere else, it is a copyright violation.
