Hi Diannaa, would you like to check the article now? This is now edited in a neutral point of view and by removing all duplication errors. Thank you Thammudu ( talk) 07:55, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Dear Diannaa, that Alavaka article has wrote +combine with my own style... i have copied 3 sentence from website! So sorry for that 🙏 Why you can redirect! it should be u can be only removed copyvio! why for all removed? for it issue of Buddhim?? please don't see religious Discrimination view, i very sad for your big take action😢. I'm only write short article in wikipedia and i never do big copy writing. please compare to copied web. And copypatrol report showing 54% of edit (57word), is mean 54% are normal copyvio. How can i appeal for revert? So sorry for no understanding. Emily Khine ( talk) 17:41, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
Hi, as you are an administrator involved in anti-copyvio edits, can you check the Suzuki article? Especifically, the revision range [1] to [2]. I think the word-by-word copy of complete phrases makes it a blatant copyright violation from [3]. I added a revdel template in the article's talk page and now I realise it should have been included in the article itself (in any case, the revdel category seems backlogged). Thanks in advance. -- Urbanoc ( talk) 15:47, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
I apologize for the copyright issue; it will not happen again. I will try to paraphrase my sources more and use less of the actual content. I was simply trying to present a factual narrative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sierra Histrorian ( talk • contribs) 22:59, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I am trying to send a new message, not sure how....
You pointed out that line 54 had copyright material that you deleted and I want to see what it is in case I can re-state it myself. Question is, how do I find a particular line, like line 54 easily? Is there a way of making line numbers show up? Many thanks, — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yororipas ( talk • contribs) 13:51, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
D - can you please review: Service record of Reinhard Heydrich, Service record of Karl Wolff and Karl Wolff for RS problems. I am not sure how to isolate the edits and sources, which need removed; if I was at work I could use my duel screens that would help for checking, but be slow; is there a tool for that? Thank you, Kierzek ( talk) 16:31, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
If this message actually gets through ... The fact that you just deleted all my hard work because you felt that I did not do a good enough job on references was, frankly, offensive and deflating. I certainly felt like it was not against policy when I took the time to write it and I was using the best possible sources available - better to capture knowledge for humanity from first person accounts than to have it disappear forever. Furthermore, I read, and re-read, all the Wikipedia policy info on third-party citations and sources and with my layman's understanding of both the goals of Wikipedia and the policies, did not find anything in violation of policy. Next time, please consider asking for clarifications or making edits that specify the nature of 'un-certified' instead of throwing away someone's hard work. The 4,000 characters you simply deleted was the result of hours of research, editing, re-editing, learning how to post and learning how to reformat. If Wikipedia and the volunteers' goal is is to provide a place to capture human knowledge, it does not do well to delete it, nor to discourage first-time contributors - especially when they do in fact know their subject material.

Adumoul ( talk) 21:49, 4 September 2018 (UTC)Dear Diannaa,
Did you remove the content of " Climate restoration " because of the publisher ( https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/2016EF000410) or because of violation of the quoting rules? Please clarify when you mention copyrights violation. Is it due to the omission of quoting rules or due to the use of an article that (for a reason I ignore) should not have been quoted? ----- Adumoul ( talk) 21:49, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for the clarification. Since I can't access the content which was erased, I can't discuss if it was copied or not, because this is a point of how different a rephrasing should be but... So, if I use quote and /or indentation, I can develop the content about refreezing the Arctic? That was - and still is - the point..
Kind regards Adumoul ( talk) 17:18, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
Pinging Dawnleelynn, Nikkimaria, and Justlettersandnumbers. I think that Talk:American_Bucking_Bull/Temp can now be moved back to American Bucking Bull, overwriting the previous article. I believe all close paraphrasing issues have been resolved and the article has been substantially rewritten. But the talkpage of the main article needs to stay as is, so a regular move that overwrites it wouldn't work, I don't think, hence we need the magic admin wand. I did a little more rewriting and the article may yet need some tweaks, but I think it can move back into mainspace. Any help would be appreciated, and many thanks.

D - I was told there is some type of vague mention of this "award" of Hitler's in Speer's autobiography. I have never heard of it, but I don't claim to know it all, either. But, this does need checking. I recall you have Speer's book. If so, can you check this for me. Thanks, Kierzek ( talk) 22:25, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
Thanks. Saw the massive new paragraph and thought the worst. Although, I have to ask, are you everywhere? :Cheers: -- intelati/ talk 00:57, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
I have been boggled with the entire procedure on my American Bucking Bull article and this rewrite to get it squared after JLAN found some close paraphrasing and some source in my early userspace draft. I worked my butt off to get a rewrite done only to have it go to the copyright problems page. No problem, he forgot the first few versions were not part of the rewrite. But now, he has done some editing of my rewrite and then had the prior version hidden with the rest of my rewrite. No copyright violations of my rewrite were ever shown to me, but again whatever. I would like to know what "violations" he supposedly removed from my rewrite at the very top of the version history though, so I can address it with new writing if necessary, etc. Can you unstrike it temporarily or some other method of letting me see what was in the version below the one he made? It's not really fair to edit my article and hide the one prior so I can't see what was removed. Thank you and please. I need to see version " 20:27, 5 September 2018" just below his, so I can compare the two. dawnleelynn (talk) 03:26, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi! From your last message on my talk page, I can use links as the sources but I have to write the content in my own words? Also, why was the Desire (Paulina Rubio song) page redirected? LoveAndArt ( talk) 20:38, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
Thank you. I didn't created a new page, I just restored it somehow. Can I restore it back and write in my own style? I won't copy from other sites. LoveAndArt ( talk) 21:07, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
That's it for the page? It can't be. Maybe it was a subject of deletion because it had reasons to be so. If I restore the page and add sources and links to it and write content in my own words then don't you think things should be fine then? LoveAndArt ( talk) 03:07, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
Then what can I do to get the page back? LoveAndArt ( talk) 14:17, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
But it's a page about a single by an artist whose singles all have pages. All singles have pages why is that single specifically not notable enough for an article? I'm suggesting for the page to be back, to write it again and add sources and links to it. LoveAndArt ( talk) 14:42, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

May I ask you for a question I had on Chinese wikipedia site? I spend a couple of hours editing this page [[ http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/哥倫比亞大學諾貝爾獎得主列表 |Nobel Prize Winner from Columbia Univ]]. However, their editor told me that " images you added are fair-use ones, which can only be used in the corresponding person's article. So your edits had to be reverted. Thanks for understanding."
But my counter argument is that 「 而非自由圖像依據準則只能在對應人物的主條目中使用 」 "Fair Use" normally protects integrity of the whole. If _the_ 'lack' of CC-By photo of a few 'famous' persons is less than 10% of the total number of winners on _this_ list, I don't see I can't add 'thumb-size' photo unto that page, what would you say? Luckily, I exported a pdf file right after my own work on the page, so I have a private document ( without holes all over ...)
Best.

I don't agree with your statement "doesn't seem relevant to the English-language version of the Mengele article" as the book has won a literary award and has been translated into German and Greek so far, which, to me, signifies that it is internationally relevant, not just in France. Olivier Guez, on a quick glance, seems notable as well, and does have articles on the German, Italian and French Wikipedia, where La Disparition de Josef Mengele also has one. While it is "only" a novel the source I used states that only the dialog is fiction, everything else in the book is apparently fact. Please consider two things: Just because something is not known in the English speaking world does not mean it is irrelevant to it and, secondly, a novel like this is much more likely to attract a wider audience than a "dry" history book and therefore may attract more people to learn about somebody as evil as Josef Mengele, and Wikipedia has influence there (I'm reading N. K. Jemisin right now because I found out about here on the main page, just as an example). La Disparition de Josef Mengele might get translated into English and you may consider it worthy of inclusion in the article then! Turismond ( talk) 04:41, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
Hello Diannaa, could you revdel the latest additions from 2.50.6.206 into this article please, when you get some time? Unfortunately I wasn't able to locate the specific source, but the text's formatting and phrasing makes it an obvious copyvio directly copypasted from an external source (possibly from consumerrights.ae, although I couldn't find a specific match of this text for some reason).

Hi Diannaa, the article had been a victim of vandalism before my edit. I added response from different parties to improve the neutrality of the article. In doing so, I had to add response from authorities in quote. However, you have reverted so many changes, that I don't even know how to find or fix the copyright issue in that long article. Could you be more patient and leave a message first and then do your reverts? Thanks. -- Kaisernahid ( talk) 20:59, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
I edited this piece of junk in 2013 and it popped back up on the copyedit queue recently. It is now 5x larger than then. It is the most content-free major article I have encountered (in 10 years). I notice that you have repeatedly had to quash cr vios. Most of the major additions appear to be by folks with little other WP engagement. It got as big as 25k words before I started whittling! I will grind it down further, but mowing the lawn isn't my idea of a good time. Any thoughts? Thanks, as always. Lfstevens ( talk) 04:51, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, hi @ Sphilbrick:! The source I've incorporated in the Femicide article has a CC BY 4.0 license. I think I did put an attribution in the reference, but probably I didn't do it correctly. I didn't used a specific template for that purpose, since {{ Source-attribution}} and {{ Citation-attribution}} are only for PD text and I thought (maybe I was wrong) that {{ Free-content attribution}} is only for longer incorporated texts. -- Niccolò Caranti (OBC) ( talk) 07:10, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm looking at Nelarine Cornelius, which I'm guessing you will see shortly anyway, but I'd like your input. IMO, the initial edit was far too close a paraphrase of the source. The current version of the article has some additional material and a slight reworking of the initial three sentences, but I still feel it is too close to the sources. I'm inclined to propose it as CSD 12, but my recollection is that the main editor recently submitted an RFA. That doesn't mean they should get a pass—if anything it means we should expect more, but I wouldn't mind making sure that we are on the same page before proceeding.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 13:25, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

This is, of course, for doing such a fantastic job detecting copyvios and dealing with them as necessary. Thank you for your work! SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 01:55, 12 September 2018 (UTC) |
Dear Diannaa, can you specify exactly what content was copied? If I am accused of something I would like to know of exactly what. I did use the source mentioned (that's why I included it as a reference), it is possible that 1 or 2 sentences corresponded to ones in the source text but that should be it. I happen to know a thing or two about copyright and that would be simply not enough to constitute a (legally relevant) copyright infringement in the jurisdictions I am familiar with, if properly referenced. All the same, I could change the wording to your liking in the spirit of cooperation. Unfortunately I seem not to be able to access the old text anymore so I cannot verify this myself, or adjust it. Probably because of some action that you took. This is unfortunate because I am not going to spend another evening re-writing this article.
Another point: If you took the time to check the article and check the source text as well, why did you not simply adjust the article so that it is improved and is brought in a state that you think is right? Isn't that what Wikipedia is all about? In stead of deleting content and handing out all kinds of notices, why not spend the evening actually improving content? Vunzmstr ( talk) 07:35, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
I have noticed a few of your edits recently and by the look of your talk page, quite a few people have the same sort of issue I do with them.
Please could you give some consideration to your edits and perhaps not arbitrarily wipe them out and delete the edit log too? Why not mark the text as requiring a specific improvement and then the rest of Wikipedia can do the rest? Your edits not only frustrate people (and make them less likely to return to edit), but also undo improvements that could still be kept but amended. It's very counter-productive and I really hope you use a more nuanced approach rather than the sledgehammer one you're using now. Apeholder ( talk) 03:47, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
Also, if you find editing Wikipedia is affecting your health and taking up so much of your day, then maybe that's life's little way of telling you that you are taking this too seriously and you might need to take a step back perhaps?

There are definitely some legitimate issues. Speaking only for myself, I try to put myself in the shoes of someone who has never edited Wikipedia and finally decides to take the plunge. Perhaps they run across some interesting publication, and when they look at the related Wikipedia article they realize the article is missing some information that is in the publication. They take a deep breath, click on edit, and add some information to the Wikipedia article. To their amazement, when they now view the article they see that it has been supplemented by their addition, so the world can see a better article. They are no longer just a reader of Wikipedia, they are an actual contributor.
A couple hours later, they tell a friend that they've made a contribution to Wikipedia. The friend is doubtful and asks for proof, so they pull up the article and… it's all gone. Maybe they see some antiseptic message on the talk page saying something about copyright, maybe they see a cryptic note in an edit summary, maybe they see nothing because they don't know where to look. But thought they were making a real contribution, and now it's all gone.
Crushing.
Schools don't seem to be teaching people the plagiarism and copyright violations are wrong. Or perhaps the delivering the lessons but the students are not paying attention. It's hardly the most exciting subject of the day. So not only has their contribution been removed they might not know exactly why. In at least nine times out of 10, that may be the last we heard of this potential new contributor.
That bothers me.
A lot.
Someone is sure to ask "so why don't you take a different approach"?
If someone has better practices that are not meaningful increases in time, please share. Leaving a warning template and giving the editor time to fix it has been proposed but is a nonstarter for legal reasons.
It used to be my practice to drop a note on the talk page of every editor whose edits I revert. (Let me emphasize that Diannaa is much better about communicating than I am.) My guess is that I left several hundred templates on the talk page of unregistered editors. If I had a 10% response rate, I'd continue, even if the response were to be critical of my action. I had a 2% response rate I'd continue. However, to the best of my recollection, not a single IP has ever acknowledged my note on the talk page, so I've stopped.
I do make a point of leaving a welcome message on brand-new registered editors. My guess is I have a less than 2% response rate, with that editor acknowledging in any way the message sent to them. Despite that low rate, I'll continue.
My point about response rates is that it is difficult to justify spending a lot of time crafting a personal message when in almost all cases, the messages appear to be falling on deaf ears. If someone engages with me, I'll take the time to explain what's going on, how our Wikipedia copyright policy differs from the legal definition, how one should edit or any other relevant advice.
Again, if someone has useful advice, I'm interested to discuss how these issues can be better handled.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 14:14, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
Part of the problem with copyvios is that Wikipedia allows anyone to post anything, and it's immediately viewable. Perhaps if we had a different system, copyvios could be handled with more care towards the contributors. But as long as lawyers are going to enforce copyright violations, as they should, we don't have any choice but to remove copyvios ruthlessly. Perhaps that sentence above the edit box that says "Content that violates any copyrights will be deleted"
needs to be much larger and in a bold font. -

It is accusing the person of trying to get attention here. I believe these allegation should be purged as these individual have done nothing amoral, illiberal, or illegal in their personal lives as far as the world is concerned.
Is it something you can do or pass it on to someone?

Hi Diannaa, as you were one of, if not *the* reason Nazi Germany made it to GA-status a few years ago, I wanted to reach out to you. I’m currently in the process of working on the article and I envision taking it to FA-status eventually. It’s not there yet but I think it’s definitely possible.
With that in mind, I wanted to ask if you’d be interested in working with me to see that through? I can’t think of anyone I’d like to work with more on this topic than the person who got it to GA-status in the first place.— White Shadows Let’s Talk 07:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi @ Diannaa:. Thanks for your time in looking at this, but I'm a bit confused and although I'm loath to impose on your time I do have a couple of questions if that's OK. By way of background, I created the Robert Fowler page because his name is on a To Do list on the /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Australia/To-do portal (in fact in researching him I discovered there are 2 Dr Robert Fowlers so I am researching the second one also).
I certainly did copy material from directly from http://adb.online.anu.edu.au/biography/fowler-robert-10231 as you note but I pasted that into my sandbox to use it as a basis for the new page I created, which I understood was an appropriate workflow, but maybe it isn't??? I'm a bit confused because the final page that I published was in my view significantly different form the original content and included fresh source material, so I thought I had created a legitimate page... Unfortunately I can't tell now if the speedy deletion was for the sandbox, the actual page or both, as both are now gone. Obviously I'm pretty new here so I do very much appreciate the guidance of experienced editors and I absolutely am wanting to contribute legitimate, appropriate content, so even just a brief response would be very helpful. Finally, is there a way to resurrect the old content so I can use it as the basis for a revised article?? Sincerely, Cabrils ( talk) 06:24, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

re stereotype deletion, I had a quick look, but still not sure what the problem is: There's a paraphrase of the abstract, and a block quote, marked as such, which is well within fair use. Am I missing something?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Tim bates ( talk • contribs)

Hi Diannaa! Hope all is well. I haven't bothered you in a while, soooooooo, here I am to bother you.
May I please trouble you to consider a block on
Eivinas Maziliauskas? This is an unresponsive editor who has basically taken
ownership of
List of Oggy and the Cockroaches episodes. I haven't materially edited this article since about 2015, but took a look at it recently and found a ton of MOS violations, incoherent section headings, and other stuff that I corrected
here. Eivinas Maziliauskas systematically
reverted all those changes silently. I
opened multiple discussions detailing all of my changes, I also
pinged and urged the user to participate in discussion, but they wouldn't.
He and anonymous IPs (who I assume to be him logged out) started adding unsourced air dates, which I've been reverting. Here he adds unsourced airdates but also plot summaries he copied from other places, like here. I warned him for this. He then added this plot summary, which I found here, which I gave him a final warning about. He then added these plot summaries he did not write, which can be found here and here at the official Oggy YouTube presence. That's three copyvios, and I would have blocked him for that if I hadn't gotten involved as though this were a content dispute. Anyway, if you could look at the matter, I'd be appreciative. Thanks!

Greetings Dianna,
On September 14 you nominated my image for deletion as I had attributed the copyright to Brian Murgatroyd but at the time had not supplied evidence of permission. That same day I forwarded the evidence that I gained permission from him to upload the photo to permissions-en@wikimedia.org & received a confirmation receipt. It has now been a week since the nomination and the image has now been deleted. I was just wondering if you know how long it takes the permissions volunteers to sift through the emails. Since this is the first time I've encountered this situation, I've no idea if a week is normal or not to wait for a response.

I didn't copy any new material at all, as you would know if you read the piece. I just edited it for clarity and moved stuff around. Why remove what I did and accuse me, when the problem, if there is one, is with the original? Why wasn't it picked up when it was posted? Why should anyone waste their time trying to make articles better when you can't do your job and see that an article requiring copy edit is OK to edit first?

I briefly mulled writing a proposal to have copy patrol add a feature to allow a user to watch a particular report (does a similar functionality in OTRS). However, after thinking about it a bit I think 90% of the usage would be me watching a report to see how you handle it so I decided to cut out the middleman.
The report involving Luis Ernesto Michel Look like it should be straightforward based on the URL of the matched site. However, the edit and a site which is in Japanese and even when translated seems to have nothing to do with the subject. I wondered if there was some matching material at the site until recently and the site was abandoned and picked up by someone else but the way back machine didn't support that, so I'm curious to know what you think, assuming the very likely possibility that you are the person who will review it.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 21:16, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa.
I need your assistance. Lieutcoluseng regularly edits civil war related articles, and does a great deal of good work standardizing formats and improving layouts, but he often becomes very protective of the articles he is working on by leaving "EDITORS NOTES" which are intended to discourage anyone from altering his work. For example, look at his more recent edits to Battle of Bayou Fourche where he added an Editors Note to each section to discourage others from editing. Again, he does some great and useful work on many articles, but he eventually becomes obsessive. He has no user page, so it is impossible to engage him on these issues. Can you help?

Please, do not refer to nonsensic Wikipedia rules. Which national copyright law or international copyright conventions justify this claim?
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.

Ignoring the obvious formatting issues, this article has a significant portion copied from this book.

Hi Diannaa! Lately I have a problem with editing the article named Żydokomuna. After adding some crucial information about the term, like the real origin and reason why it gained popularity among Polish people, I became the target of accusations of antisemitism, and those who accused me, revert my submission without even investigating the sources. Some of the sources given by me are official, like eg. the statements of the Institute of National Remembrance. I am Polish myself, and I love history, so I have the best first-hand knowledge about my country's history, however on Wikipedia I try to use only knowledge based on reliable sources. This is the submission which is being reverted: [5] The article in its earlier form was harshly biased against Polish people and there was no real reason for this term coming into being.

Hello, Diannaa.
First off, I want to apologize if I have violated Wikipedia's copyright laws with some of the images I have uploaded.
This was unintentional, and a mistake on my part for filling out the copyright status of the image which I had thought was correct.
But I wanted to give you, and Wikipedia, an explanation for some of this missing or incorrect copyright information which pertain to the said images. I'm not sure if you are familiar with the backstory to the articles in which these were used, so I thought I would provide you with a short background.
Basically, the photos are not only difficult to find, but not many of them exist of the subject. Due to this obstacle, I had no choice but to work with what I was given. The (very few) sources I had accessed weren't clear as to the information of the image(s).
Please understand that I had no intention of violating copyright and avoiding to abide by the guidelines of Wikipedia. I am relatively new to the site.

Hi Diannaa,
After you reversed my edits on the nationalism page, I was wondering how best to go about not repeating the same mistake twice. I did not copy/paste word for word from the source, but used some of their material/phrasing as I feel it accurately described the ideological strand that I was adding to the page. If you desire, I can add quotation marks around the offending material, but I will need to be able to view the paragraph that I submitted. Could you please allow me to view my edits/submissions so I can correct the offending material and not start from scratch.

I've generally tried to steer clear of debates about discography or track listings, because they are inherently lists, and copyright status of lists can be tricky. I learned everything I know about lists from Moonriddengirl, who happened to hate them, so maybe my reaction is homage to her.I think I know that completely unoriginal lists, such as a list of US states, cannot be subject to copyright, while fully original lists, such as the top songs of all time according to some publication are fully subject to copyright. I think discography and track listings are closer to unoriginal but I'd be interested in your reaction as well as that of any ( talk page watcher).-- S Philbrick (Talk) 18:46, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Dianna, Most of my edits were removed by you because of copyright violations. I have no issues with, however; in order to add content back in the proper paraphrased version and correct way of citing work, I need my previous content to be available. There is no previous version that is viewable on the View History tab. It took me several days of work to put this content together that's why it was very disappointing and aggravating to lose is in a single wipe. I would appreciate if you would make sure you either retain the older versions or make sure you have it available for authors so that they just don't lose all their work. So - can you please send me my previous version so I can then follow all your rules for copyright, and learn in the process for future, but I need the previous content. Please.
Also, in one edit comment you have written, "remove copyright content copied from http://www.pakistanartreview.net/52th_Issue/52th_Page_6.html ; see the iThenticate report", I did NOT add this link as a citation, it existed before my edit, and more importantly IT DOESN'T EXIST. Therefore it's a dead link, so how do you know that the contents from this website were copied? Interesting.
Anyway, please send me my version prior to your deletion. Appreciate it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vinita pande ( talk • contribs) 04:42, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi,
I tried to compare my version with your revision, but my edit on the History page has been crossed out (something I've never seen before). The text of your edit runs essentially as I remember my text running, and of course in any case the great majority of it is direct quotes from Scheer and from John Letts' letter. Can you explain what exactly you thought plagiaristic? Mikalra ( talk) 21:37, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
In his letter, Letts claims the family has evidence about his son's activities in Syria — information that would exonerate him — that they wanted to present to Canadian security officials last spring.
He and his lawyer, Clive Stafford-Smith, tried for a meeting with the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, but were rebuffed.
Letts went on to say that his family has exonerating evidence about his son's activities in Syria, which he had attempted to present to the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) the previous spring, but that they had been rebuffed
What is this about? I've been writing on Wikipedia for more than ten years and I have always fully complied with matters concerning copyright and plagiarism, and I've never copied anything which isn't demonstrably in the public domain - I've created literally hundreds of articles using these sources. Further, all of the pre-War Loeb editions of the Greek and Latin writer are out-of-copyright, there is no copyright violation involved at all here. And yet instead of asking me about this you've accused me of outright copyright violation on this 1927 text on (currently still in the external links on Epistulae ad Familiares), and then told me that another 110-year-old text I used on Octavia (play) is "plagiarism". I am genuinely very confused by this now. Pasicles ( talk) 23:42, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. I'm currently involved in a FFD discussion about some different files with this editor, so I was wondering if you wouldn't mind reminding him/her about {{ Non-free reduce}}. Pretty much every file he/she has recently uploaded has been tagged by either a bot or by an editor for being too big. I realize your first attempt at this was more than three years ago. Maybe they did try to be more careful for awhile, but they aren't really currenty doing so as indicated by File:West Virginia Roughriders.png, File:Bismarck Bucks Helmet 2019.png and File:TSS FC Rovers.png to just name a few examples of what I'm talking about. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 06:07, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

I've looked at previous versions of the article, and can pull out some reliable sources. Since the 2012 AFD, all other Doolittle Raid survivors have died, so he is the last remaining Raider.

Hello Diannaa,
I would like your input regarding plagiarism on this edit: [10]
The user involved initially copy-pasted the sub headers directly from this news tabloid [11]] in the Killing of Jamal Khashoggi#Saudi reaction subsection. However, after multiple edits and reverts from InedibleHulk and an admin Jonathunder on removing and explaining the plaigrism the user has closely paraphrased the headings and continues to revert any edits, even after discussing it extensively here. Talk:Killing_of_Jamal_Khashoggi#Saudi_Reaction_Sub-sections.
He is adamant on involving it in the article even after the last edit from the admin with the following instructions: (Do not undo the removal of plagiarism. See talk.) He claims it is sufficient close paraphrasing and has addedd multiple other sub headers which closely mimic his initial copy paste in attempt to reduce plagiarism.
The current article sub headers are as follows:
The BBC article headers are:
Current section also has mutliple loosely based sub-headers to conceal the initial plagiarism. I am not sure if the current headers are appropriate for close paraphrasing, as honestly they look very similar to the first copy-pasted headers the user has used. I would love your input on this issue. Does this constitute copy vio or plagiarism? Please advise. Wikiemirati ( talk) 00:50, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, as you are an administrator involved in anti-copyvio edits, can you check the Suzuki article? Especifically, the revision range [1] to [2]. I think the word-by-word copy of complete phrases makes it a blatant copyright violation from [3].

Thank you, Kierzek ( talk) 16:31, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
If this message actually gets through ... The fact that you just deleted all my hard work because you felt that I did not do a good enough job on references was, frankly, offensive and deflating. I certainly felt like it was not against policy when I took the time to write it and I was using the best possible sources available - better to capture knowledge for humanity from first person accounts than to have it disappear forever. Furthermore, I read, and re-read, all the Wikipedia policy info on third-party citations and sources and with my layman's understanding of both the goals of Wikipedia and the policies, did not find anything in violation of policy. Next time, please consider asking for clarifications or making edits that specify the nature of 'un-certified' instead of throwing away someone's hard work. The 4,000 characters you simply deleted was the result of hours of research, editing, re-editing, learning how to post and learning how to reformat. If Wikipedia and the volunteers' goal is is to provide a place to capture human knowledge, it does not do well to delete it, nor to discourage first-time contributors - especially when they do in fact know their subject material.

Did you remove the content of " Climate restoration " because of the publisher ( https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/2016EF000410) or because of violation of the quoting rules?

Is it due to the omission of quoting rules or due to the use of an article that (for a reason I ignore) should not have been quoted? ----- Adumoul ( talk) 21:49, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for the clarification. Since I can't access the content which was erased, I can't discuss if it was copied or not, because this is a point of how different a rephrasing should be but... So, if I use quote and /or indentation, I can develop the content about refreezing the Arctic? That was - and still is - the point..

Pinging Dawnleelynn, Nikkimaria, and Justlettersandnumbers. I think that Talk:American_Bucking_Bull/Temp can now be moved back to American Bucking Bull, overwriting the previous article. I believe all close paraphrasing issues have been resolved and the article has been substantially rewritten. But the talkpage of the main article needs to stay as is, so a regular move that overwrites it wouldn't work, I don't think, hence we need the magic admin wand. I did a little more rewriting and the article may yet need some tweaks, but I think it can move back into mainspace. Any help would be appreciated, and many thanks.

I have been boggled with the entire procedure on my American Bucking Bull article and this rewrite to get it squared after JLAN found some close paraphrasing and some source in my early userspace draft. I worked my butt off to get a rewrite done only to have it go to the copyright problems page. No problem, he forgot the first few versions were not part of the rewrite. But now, he has done some editing of my rewrite and then had the prior version hidden with the rest of my rewrite. No copyright violations of my rewrite were ever shown to me, but again whatever. I would like to know what "violations" he supposedly removed from my rewrite at the very top of the version history though, so I can address it with new writing if necessary, etc. Can you unstrike it temporarily or some other method of letting me see what was in the version below the one he made? It's not really fair to edit my article and hide the one prior so I can't see what was removed. Thank you and please. I need to see version " 20:27, 5 September 2018" just below his, so I can compare the two. dawnleelynn (talk) 03:26, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

May I ask you for a question I had on Chinese wikipedia site? I spend a couple of hours editing this page [[ http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/哥倫比亞大學諾貝爾獎得主列表 |Nobel Prize Winner from Columbia Univ]]. However, their editor told me that " images you added are fair-use ones, which can only be used in the corresponding person's article. So your edits had to be reverted. Thanks for understanding."
But my counter argument is that 「 而非自由圖像依據準則只能在對應人物的主條目中使用 」 "Fair Use" normally protects integrity of the whole. If _the_ 'lack' of CC-By photo of a few 'famous' persons is less than 10% of the total number of winners on _this_ list, I don't see I can't add 'thumb-size' photo unto that page, what would you say? Luckily, I exported a pdf file right after my own work on the page, so I have a private document ( without holes all over ...)
Best.

I don't agree with your statement "doesn't seem relevant to the English-language version of the Mengele article" as the book has won a literary award and has been translated into German and Greek so far, which, to me, signifies that it is internationally relevant, not just in France. Olivier Guez, on a quick glance, seems notable as well, and does have articles on the German, Italian and French Wikipedia, where La Disparition de Josef Mengele also has one. While it is "only" a novel the source I used states that only the dialog is fiction, everything else in the book is apparently fact. Please consider two things: Just because something is not known in the English speaking world does not mean it is irrelevant to it and, secondly, a novel like this is much more likely to attract a wider audience than a "dry" history book and therefore may attract more people to learn about somebody as evil as Josef Mengele, and Wikipedia has influence there (I'm reading N. K. Jemisin right now because I found out about here on the main page, just as an example). La Disparition de Josef Mengele might get translated into English and you may consider it worthy of inclusion in the article then! Turismond ( talk) 04:41, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

I edited this piece of junk in 2013 and it popped back up on the copyedit queue recently. It is now 5x larger than then. It is the most content-free major article I have encountered (in 10 years). I notice that you have repeatedly had to quash cr vios. Most of the major additions appear to be by folks with little other WP engagement. It got as big as 25k words before I started whittling!

I didn't used a specific template for that purpose, since {{ Source-attribution}} and {{ Citation-attribution}} are only for PD text and I thought (maybe I was wrong) that {{ Free-content attribution}} is only for longer incorporated texts. -- Niccolò Caranti (OBC) ( talk) 07:10, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm looking at Nelarine Cornelius, which I'm guessing you will see shortly anyway, but I'd like your input. IMO, the initial edit was far too close a paraphrase of the source. The current version of the article has some additional material and a slight reworking of the initial three sentences, but I still feel it is too close to the sources. I'm inclined to propose it as CSD 12, but my recollection is that the main editor recently submitted an RFA. That doesn't mean they should get a pass—if anything it means we should expect more, but I wouldn't mind making sure that we are on the same page before proceeding.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 13:25, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

I recently edited the page on sensorineural hearing loss and it was deleted due to copyright violations.

This is, of course, for doing such a fantastic job detecting copyvios and dealing with them as necessary. Thank you for your work! SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 01:55, 12 September 2018 (UTC) |
Dear Diannaa, can you specify exactly what content was copied? If I am accused of something I would like to know of exactly what. I did use the source mentioned (that's why I included it as a reference), it is possible that 1 or 2 sentences corresponded to ones in the source text but that should be it. I happen to know a thing or two about copyright and that would be simply not enough to constitute a (legally relevant) copyright infringement in the jurisdictions I am familiar with, if properly referenced. All the same, I could change the wording to your liking in the spirit of cooperation. Unfortunately I seem not to be able to access the old text anymore so I cannot verify this myself, or adjust it. Probably because of some action that you took. This is unfortunate because I am not going to spend another evening re-writing this article.
Another point: If you took the time to check the article and check the source text as well, why did you not simply adjust the article so that it is improved and is brought in a state that you think is right? Isn't that what Wikipedia is all about? In stead of deleting content and handing out all kinds of notices, why not spend the evening actually improving content? Vunzmstr ( talk) 07:35, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
I have noticed a few of your edits recently and by the look of your talk page, quite a few people have the same sort of issue I do with them.
Please could you give some consideration to your edits and perhaps not arbitrarily wipe them out and delete the edit log too? Why not mark the text as requiring a specific improvement and then the rest of Wikipedia can do the rest? Your edits not only frustrate people (and make them less likely to return to edit), but also undo improvements that could still be kept but amended. It's very counter-productive and I really hope you use a more nuanced approach rather than the sledgehammer one you're using now. Apeholder ( talk) 03:47, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
Also, if you find editing Wikipedia is affecting your health and taking up so much of your day, then maybe that's life's little way of telling you that you are taking this too seriously and you might need to take a step back perhaps?

There are definitely some legitimate issues. Speaking only for myself, I try to put myself in the shoes of someone who has never edited Wikipedia and finally decides to take the plunge. Perhaps they run across some interesting publication, and when they look at the related Wikipedia article they realize the article is missing some information that is in the publication. They take a deep breath, click on edit, and add some information to the Wikipedia article. To their amazement, when they now view the article they see that it has been supplemented by their addition, so the world can see a better article. They are no longer just a reader of Wikipedia, they are an actual contributor.
A couple hours later, they tell a friend that they've made a contribution to Wikipedia. The friend is doubtful and asks for proof, so they pull up the article and… it's all gone. Maybe they see some antiseptic message on the talk page saying something about copyright, maybe they see a cryptic note in an edit summary, maybe they see nothing because they don't know where to look. But thought they were making a real contribution, and now it's all gone.
Crushing.
Schools don't seem to be teaching people the plagiarism and copyright violations are wrong. Or perhaps the delivering the lessons but the students are not paying attention. It's hardly the most exciting subject of the day. So not only has their contribution been removed they might not know exactly why. In at least nine times out of 10, that may be the last we heard of this potential new contributor.
That bothers me.
A lot.
Someone is sure to ask "so why don't you take a different approach"?
If someone has better practices that are not meaningful increases in time, please share. Leaving a warning template and giving the editor time to fix it has been proposed but is a nonstarter for legal reasons.
It used to be my practice to drop a note on the talk page of every editor whose edits I revert. (Let me emphasize that Diannaa is much better about communicating than I am.) My guess is that I left several hundred templates on the talk page of unregistered editors. If I had a 10% response rate, I'd continue, even if the response were to be critical of my action. I had a 2% response rate I'd continue. However, to the best of my recollection, not a single IP has ever acknowledged my note on the talk page, so I've stopped.
I do make a point of leaving a welcome message on brand-new registered editors. My guess is I have a less than 2% response rate, with that editor acknowledging in any way the message sent to them. Despite that low rate, I'll continue.
My point about response rates is that it is difficult to justify spending a lot of time crafting a personal message when in almost all cases, the messages appear to be falling on deaf ears. If someone engages with me, I'll take the time to explain what's going on, how our Wikipedia copyright policy differs from the legal definition, how one should edit or any other relevant advice.
Again, if someone has useful advice, I'm interested to discuss how these issues can be better handled.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 14:14, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
Part of the problem with copyvios is that Wikipedia allows anyone to post anything, and it's immediately viewable. Perhaps if we had a different system, copyvios could be handled with more care towards the contributors. But as long as lawyers are going to enforce copyright violations, as they should, we don't have any choice but to remove copyvios ruthlessly. Perhaps that sentence above the edit box that says "Content that violates any copyrights will be deleted"
needs to be much larger and in a bold font. -

Hello Diannaa, Earwig's Copyvio Detector shows a high probability of copyright content in the Corana and Hygeia article, but the source may be in the Public Domain. Woodlot ( talk) 15:47, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
Hi @ Diannaa:. Thanks for your time in looking at this, but I'm a bit confused and although I'm loath to impose on your time I do have a couple of questions if that's OK. By way of background, I created the Robert Fowler page because his name is on a To Do list on the /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Australia/To-do portal (in fact in researching him I discovered there are 2 Dr Robert Fowlers so I am researching the second one also).
I certainly did copy material from directly from http://adb.online.anu.edu.au/biography/fowler-robert-10231 as you note but I pasted that into my sandbox to use it as a basis for the new page I created, which I understood was an appropriate workflow, but maybe it isn't??? I'm a bit confused because the final page that I published was in my view significantly different form the original content and included fresh source material, so I thought I had created a legitimate page... Unfortunately I can't tell now if the speedy deletion was for the sandbox, the actual page or both, as both are now gone. Obviously I'm pretty new here so I do very much appreciate the guidance of experienced editors and I absolutely am wanting to contribute legitimate, appropriate content, so even just a brief response would be very helpful. Finally, is there a way to resurrect the old content so I can use it as the basis for a revised article?? Sincerely, Cabrils ( talk) 06:24, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa! Hope all is well. I haven't bothered you in a while, soooooooo, here I am to bother you.
May I please trouble you to consider a block on
Eivinas Maziliauskas? This is an unresponsive editor who has basically taken
ownership of
List of Oggy and the Cockroaches episodes. I haven't materially edited this article since about 2015, but took a look at it recently and found a ton of MOS violations, incoherent section headings, and other stuff that I corrected
here. Eivinas Maziliauskas systematically
reverted all those changes silently. I
opened multiple discussions detailing all of my changes, I also
pinged and urged the user to participate in discussion, but they wouldn't.
He and anonymous IPs (who I assume to be him logged out) started adding unsourced air dates, which I've been reverting. Here he adds unsourced airdates but also plot summaries he copied from other places, like here. I warned him for this. He then added this plot summary, which I found here, which I gave him a final warning about. He then added these plot summaries he did not write, which can be found here and here at the official Oggy YouTube presence. That's three copyvios, and I would have blocked him for that if I hadn't gotten involved as though this were a content dispute. Anyway, if you could look at the matter, I'd be appreciative. Thanks!

Greetings Dianna,
On September 14 you nominated my image for deletion as I had attributed the copyright to Brian Murgatroyd but at the time had not supplied evidence of permission. That same day I forwarded the evidence that I gained permission from him to upload the photo to permissions-en@wikimedia.org & received a confirmation receipt. It has now been a week since the nomination and the image has now been deleted. I was just wondering if you know how long it takes the permissions volunteers to sift through the emails. Since this is the first time I've encountered this situation, I've no idea if a week is normal or not to wait for a response.

I briefly mulled writing a proposal to have copy patrol add a feature to allow a user to watch a particular report (does a similar functionality in OTRS). However, after thinking about it a bit I think 90% of the usage would be me watching a report to see how you handle it so I decided to cut out the middleman.
The report involving Luis Ernesto Michel Look like it should be straightforward based on the URL of the matched site. However, the edit and a site which is in Japanese and even when translated seems to have nothing to do with the subject. I wondered if there was some matching material at the site until recently and the site was abandoned and picked up by someone else but the way back machine didn't support that, so I'm curious to know what you think, assuming the very likely possibility that you are the person who will review it.-- S Philbrick (Talk) 21:16, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa.
I need your assistance. Lieutcoluseng regularly edits civil war related articles, and does a great deal of good work standardizing formats and improving layouts, but he often becomes very protective of the articles he is working on by leaving "EDITORS NOTES" which are intended to discourage anyone from altering his work. For example, look at his more recent edits to Battle of Bayou Fourche where he added an Editors Note to each section to discourage others from editing. Again, he does some great and useful work on many articles, but he eventually becomes obsessive. He has no user page, so it is impossible to engage him on these issues. Can you help?

Please, do not refer to nonsensic Wikipedia rules. Which national copyright law or international copyright conventions justify this claim?
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.

1. As the book was published in 1908 is it safe to assume it's in the public domain? 2. I remember from years back a template that is a warning to other articles that it uses material from public domain within the article.
Thanks for helping out with the copyright issues on here.-- intelati talk 19:18, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa! Lately I have a problem with editing the article named Żydokomuna. After adding some crucial information about the term, like the real origin and reason why it gained popularity among Polish people, I became the target of accusations of antisemitism, and those who accused me, revert my submission without even investigating the sources. Some of the sources given by me are official, like eg. the statements of the Institute of National Remembrance. I am Polish myself, and I love history, so I have the best first-hand knowledge about my country's history, however on Wikipedia I try to use only knowledge based on reliable sources. This is the submission which is being reverted: [5] The article in its earlier form was harshly biased against Polish people and there was no real reason for this term coming into being. Can you somehow help me in that, or tell me what do you? Thanks! Yatzhek ( talk) 14:09, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

@ E-960: copied a whole bunch of text from Blue Army (Poland) (pre-blanking) to the newly created Anti-Jewish violence in Eastern Galicia involving soldiers of the Blue Army, without attribution, which I am fairly sure is against copyright/licensing policy.

Hello Dianna, thanks for helping edit the HMCS Hunter page. How can I see the previous page before you edited it so that I can make adjustments and not use what was verbatim? I put it there as a placeholder until I could go in and edit it fully. Right now I have to go back and do all the research and it took quite a bit of time. I'm new to the Wikipedia game. Also, the authour of the CROSSBOW sent me an email saying it was ok to use the photo he took of CROSSBOW off Scarborough Bluffs. HamOnt ( talk)
Hello Dianaa I received an email from you. The draft I created for Dora Decca was an original article in French that was already inline. I simply translated it to English. I don’t understand why you write the comments on copyright from sources. Please clarify. This is because i followed the original French article and just translated it to English. Waiting for your reply . Thanks I am so worried because since I started contributing to Wikipedia all my drafts have been declined.

Hello, Diannaa.
First off, I want to apologize if I have violated Wikipedia's copyright laws with some of the images I have uploaded.
This was unintentional, and a mistake on my part for filling out the copyright status of the image which I had thought was correct.
But I wanted to give you, and Wikipedia, an explanation for some of this missing or incorrect copyright information which pertain to the said images. I'm not sure if you are familiar with the backstory to the articles in which these were used, so I thought I would provide you with a short background.
Basically, the photos are not only difficult to find, but not many of them exist of the subject. Due to this obstacle, I had no choice but to work with what I was given. The (very few) sources I had accessed weren't clear as to the information of the image(s).
Please understand that I had no intention of violating copyright and avoiding to abide by the guidelines of Wikipedia. I am relatively new to the site.
Will I be punished or blocked from editing? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wonderland ave ( talk • contribs) 00:04, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
Dear Dianna you have just modified the page I intend to create. I sometimes copy and paste into my draft materials which I then work on and fully reference if used. Modifying someone's else UNSUBMITED DRAFT for a NEW PAGE concerning a topic that is FOREIGN to you is beyond COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE and truly discourages users to contribute when they spend hours on a page. Please only alter the work of someone that is DONE writing, referencing and has submitted his/her work and not mess with pages that are not even created yet! I would be intrinsically grateful if you could let me write this page without further disturbance. If a configuration stopping users interfering until submission exists, please tell me about it.

Hi Diannaa,
After you reversed my edits on the nationalism page, I was wondering how best to go about not repeating the same mistake twice. I did not copy/paste word for word from the source, but used some of their material/phrasing as I feel it accurately described the ideological strand that I was adding to the page. If you desire, I can add quotation marks around the offending material, but I will need to be able to view the paragraph that I submitted. Could you please allow me to view my edits/submissions so I can correct the offending material and not start from scratch.

I've dealt with copyright issues involving soundcloud before, but I'm missing something in the following cases:
Typically, when I go to the site, I look in the upper right and there is some material, typically collapsed but if I open it there is usually a block of text which has been copied. I don't see it in this case. Am I missing something?-- S Philbrick (Talk) 14:11, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
I've generally tried to steer clear of debates about discography or track listings, because they are inherently lists, and copyright status of lists can be tricky. I learned everything I know about lists from Moonriddengirl, who happened to hate them, so maybe my reaction is homage to her.I think I know that completely unoriginal lists, such as a list of US states, cannot be subject to copyright, while fully original lists, such as the top songs of all time according to some publication are fully subject to copyright. I think discography and track listings are closer to unoriginal but I'd be interested in your reaction as well as that of any ( talk page watcher).-- S Philbrick (Talk) 18:46, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Dianna, Most of my edits were removed by you because of copyright violations. I have no issues with, however; in order to add content back in the proper paraphrased version and correct way of citing work, I need my previous content to be available. There is no previous version that is viewable on the View History tab. It took me several days of work to put this content together that's why it was very disappointing and aggravating to lose is in a single wipe. I would appreciate if you would make sure you either retain the older versions or make sure you have it available for authors so that they just don't lose all their work. So - can you please send me my previous version so I can then follow all your rules for copyright, and learn in the process for future, but I need the previous content. Please.
Also, in one edit comment you have written, "remove copyright content copied from http://www.pakistanartreview.net/52th_Issue/52th_Page_6.html ; see the iThenticate report", I did NOT add this link as a citation, it existed before my edit, and more importantly IT DOESN'T EXIST. Therefore it's a dead link, so how do you know that the contents from this website were copied? Interesting.
Anyway, please send me my version prior to your deletion. Appreciate it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vinita pande ( talk • contribs) 04:42, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi,
I tried to compare my version with your revision, but my edit on the History page has been crossed out (something I've never seen before). The text of your edit runs essentially as I remember my text running, and of course in any case the great majority of it is direct quotes from Scheer and from John Letts' letter. Can you explain what exactly you thought plagiaristic? Mikalra ( talk) 21:37, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
In his letter, Letts claims the family has evidence about his son's activities in Syria — information that would exonerate him — that they wanted to present to Canadian security officials last spring.
He and his lawyer, Clive Stafford-Smith, tried for a meeting with the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, but were rebuffed.
Letts went on to say that his family has exonerating evidence about his son's activities in Syria, which he had attempted to present to the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) the previous spring, but that they had been rebuffed
What is this about? I've been writing on Wikipedia for more than ten years and I have always fully complied with matters concerning copyright and plagiarism, and I've never copied anything which isn't demonstrably in the public domain - I've created literally hundreds of articles using these sources. Further, all of the pre-War Loeb editions of the Greek and Latin writer are out-of-copyright, there is no copyright violation involved at all here. And yet instead of asking me about this you've accused me of outright copyright violation on this 1927 text on (currently still in the external links on Epistulae ad Familiares), and then told me that another 110-year-old text I used on Octavia (play) is "plagiarism". I am genuinely very confused by this now. Pasicles ( talk) 23:42, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. I'm currently involved in a FFD discussion about some different files with this editor, so I was wondering if you wouldn't mind reminding him/her about {{ Non-free reduce}}. Pretty much every file he/she has recently uploaded has been tagged by either a bot or by an editor for being too big. I realize your first attempt at this was more than three years ago. Maybe they did try to be more careful for awhile, but they aren't really currenty doing so as indicated by File:West Virginia Roughriders.png, File:Bismarck Bucks Helmet 2019.png and File:TSS FC Rovers.png to just name a few examples of what I'm talking about. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 06:07, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

I've looked at previous versions of the article, and can pull out some reliable sources. Since the 2012 AFD, all other Doolittle Raid survivors have died, so he is the last remaining Raider.

Hello Diannaa,
I would like your input regarding plagiarism on this edit: [10]
The user involved initially copy-pasted the sub headers directly from this news tabloid [11]] in the Killing of Jamal Khashoggi#Saudi reaction subsection. However, after multiple edits and reverts from InedibleHulk and an admin Jonathunder on removing and explaining the plaigrism the user has closely paraphrased the headings and continues to revert any edits, even after discussing it extensively here. Talk:Killing_of_Jamal_Khashoggi#Saudi_Reaction_Sub-sections.
He is adamant on involving it in the article even after the last edit from the admin with the following instructions: (Do not undo the removal of plagiarism. See talk.) He claims it is sufficient close paraphrasing and has addedd multiple other sub headers which closely mimic his initial copy paste in attempt to reduce plagiarism.
The current article sub headers are as follows:
The BBC article headers are:
Current section also has mutliple loosely based sub-headers to conceal the initial plagiarism. I am not sure if the current headers are appropriate for close paraphrasing, as honestly they look very similar to the first copy-pasted headers the user has used. I would love your input on this issue. Does this constitute copy vio or plagiarism? Please advise. Wikiemirati ( talk) 00:50, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
