Jamesmcardle recently made this edit to Castlemaine, Victoria ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), which seems to be close paraphrasing of this website. I'm notifying you because you've recently given them a final warning for copyvios. I'm not sure if the paraphrasing is at all a mitigating factor here, so I figured I should leave it to your judgement. — SamX [ talk · contribs 00:08, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa, is it possible to access the deleted edit as stated in User talk:SchmiAlf#Wikipedia and copyright, e.g., as a copy into a sub-page of my user page? It would help to restore the arguments and fix the issues. SchmiAlf ( talk) 08:01, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, I'm sorry for that issue yesterday. I didn't know that what I do was wrong and I'm unaware of it (copyright violations). I've just doing good faith in editing and not intended to do copyvios. I'll have changes some words in the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia article. Anyway, thanks for remind me about the matter and after this, I will be more careful when added contents in Wikipedia articles in the future. Fandi89 ( talk) 03:02, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. Could you please take a look at the question I raised at Talk:Hydrogen vehicle regarding your revision-deletion? (I pinged you but I've learned some editors have pings turned off so these days I'm communicating the old-fashioned way. Let me know if you have a preference for pings or for notifications on your talk page ). Clayoquot ( talk | contribs) 14:25, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi again Dianaa. I have a tangential followup question - I'm looking for a plagiarism detection tool that will work in user sandboxes so that I (and my trainees) can check for issues before putting new content in mainspace. I set up a subpage, User:Clayoquot/Energy2, with the text that CopyPatrol flagged and ran it through Earwig's tool, but Earwig's tool failed to flag the problematic text. Is there away to run something similar to CopyPatrol on one's own sandbox or other subpage? Take care, Clayoquot ( talk | contribs) 16:56, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi, Diannaa, how are you? I wondered, after you blanked and listed this, did you look in detail at other contribs of this user? I've started on that, and am not at all reassured by what I've found – three more pages listed at WP:CP and one instance of unattributed CWW. Just checking with you in case this is ground you've already been over. I'm still in awe at the amount of work you manage to do, while I seem to get less and less done, particularly in the copyvio area, and my content creation activity is close to zilch.

Hi, I am hoping you can advise about whether there is copyvio in Evan McKie. The current version has lengthy quotes from a couple of sources, particularly La Notte. These are properly referenced, but the length of the quotes makes me wonder whether copyright would apply. Would you mind having a look if you have time? Thank you.

Hi Diannaa (also pinging @ C.Fred), there's a VTRS ticket 2023091910006337 dealing with the text. As mentioned above Dr Chase (and the ticket also verifies his identity) is one of the co-authors of the text and therefore has joint copyright on the text. Under section 201(a) of the US Copyright Act each author can do as they wish with the entire content of the joint work (see [7] and [8]). As Dr Chase has, in the ticket, provided a consent statement releasing the content of the paper at [9] under CC-by-sa-4.0 I think any issues about copyvio of the text are resolved and subject to anything you want to add, I suggest we undelete the revdel'd revisions. Dr Chase is aware that Wikipedia is a collegiate environment and I don't think WP:OWN is going to be an issue.
There is a separate ticket 2023091710001845 which I am not dealing with in regard to the images. Nthep ( talk) 10:40, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello Diannaa. I gather you know which edit I am talking about without the need for me to provide diffs. I'd like to but it's all been "ghosted". I didn't know what the rules were here. Actually I altered the text to "redevelop" the points raised selling the same message. I'm not sure I did a good job. Being from Switzerland, I speak German (native), French and Italian, all better than I do English. LOL. I ssumed if you follow the reliable sources you could retell the whole story as long as you do in using your own words. Sorry if I got something mixed up. -- Truehans ( talk) 05:57, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. Hoping you can help with Jonathan Freeman-Attwood. Earwig reports an 81.7% chance of copyvio when comparing to his biography at the Royal Academy of Music. I reverted to a version just before this edit from 2015, which I though cleared most of the copyvio (there was another substantial edit in 2023 which also looks like it uses material from the RAM). However, firstly if I do that we lose references that have been added since, and secondly the copyvio actually seems to go back further, to 2011 at least, when an editor posted on the Talk page "I am happy to confirm that the Royal Academy of Music has authorised free use of Prof Jonathan Freeman-Attwood's biography on wikipedia". Could you have a look and advise? I am happy to take it back to basics if that is the best way to go. Thanks. Tacyarg ( talk) 19:39, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello Diannaa, I came across the Joanna Shields, Baroness Shields article here and was going to try to help tidy-up, however, Earwig is 79.6% (and the CoI aspect looks tricky too). I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to approach a situation like this and thought I might ask you to have a look (as you recently intervened in the context of an article I was reviewing for NPP). Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers, Cl3phact0 ( talk) 18:15, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi @ Diannaa,
Thanks for your patient explanation- it was an honest mistake & really hasn’t happened before but will be mindful going forward. If this is considered resolved, may I request you to please delete the message ? Thank you for your understanding ! Medhavigandhi ( talk) 16:01, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. I hope you don't mind me seeking clarification from you on an editing issue that I keep running into but I would like the benefit of your extensive editing expertise. (I am raising it here as a general issue, rather than on the specific article talk page because it affects more that the one article.) I recently noticed that you removed the Category:1945 deaths from the article Adolf Hitler that included categories for both "1945 deaths" and "1945 suicides", on the basis that the former was a parent category of the latter. I recently had a question on this issue on a different article, and another editor explained to me that "xxxx suicides" is a "non-diffusing category" of "xxxx deaths", which is an exception to the general rule that articles are not placed in both a category and its subcategory and, therefore, both should be included. Please see the explanation in Help:Non-diffusing subcategories ( Wikipedia:DUPCAT) and the explanatory note at the top of any "xxxx suicides" category. This issue seems to come up a lot, with different editors both adding and deleting the "xxxx deaths" category to articles containing the "xxxx suicides" category. I want to be sure that the issue is being addressed in a consistent manner and that I have a firm understanding of which is correct. Most of the articles of persons who committed suicide in 1945 contain both categories. What is the right approach here? Thanks in advance for your assistance and clarification. Historybuff0105 ( talk) 17:50, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, it's just one sentence, but removing it has proved to be a bit of a nuisance. Any input/assistance will be appreciated. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 ( talk) 21:45, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello, Diannaa! It's been a while since our last conversation. I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I could use your expertise on something. My good wikifriend, @ L'OrfeoGreco:, has translated an article he originally authored on Greek Wikipedia and has asked for my assistance prior to GAN. While I think it's quite well done, there may be an issue I'm not entirely sure about, so I'm seeking your wisdom. Specifically, the "synopsis" section seems to closely mirror the source. Could you please take a look, determine if there is indeed a problem, and perhaps offer a few potential solutions? Thank you! Cinadon 36 11:49, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Source is this one:
"NWCR695, Nausicaa, Opera in Three Acts" (PDF). New World Records. 2007. Retrieved 29 September 2023.
I am uncertain about rewording the text. Also about structure, since our text follows the same events in the same order. Maybe I being too cautious. Have a look here:
Or at Act I
Or at Interlude:
Or at act III
There are similarities but they are unavoidable I presume. So, is it ok? Cinadon 36 14:55, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello,
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:History/Alan_Campbell_(pastor)
Are you aware that the Powerbase article is a copy of earlier versions of this article's Wikipedia page, which was used to create their "own content" when it doesn't belong to them: hence, you have picked up a false positive? Please undo that part of your revision. As a contributor to the GA Nominations page, I hope I always try to keep to the rules, but I may go wrong now and again. I will revise the Belfast Telegraph page when you have done so. Regards to you Billsmith60 ( talk) 14:27, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello,
As I understand it. you are claiming that I've violated copyright by taking text from https://adct.org.za/most-reverend-archbishop-stephen-brislin/ that describes his coat of arms... but what copyright is on that, and I'm certain the Archbishop - whose website it is - would want his explanation to go along with the graphics??? There was a citation requested and I linked to the page - but this has no copyright. Perhaps you are thinking about US law... but I respectfully do not think it applies. Matthew Charlesworth ( talk) 14:34, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Hello, Diannaa!
I would like to make a quick question on a subject of your specialisation.
I am the main contributor to the article
Nausicaa (opera), currently
a high priority GA candidate.
I just came across
this audio file on Internet Archive; it is the opera's one and only recording, available in its entirety via the IA.
Do you think I could add the link at the "External links" section, or is doing so forbidden? I mean, the recording is not distributed without copyright regulations, because it was originally published in 1961 by a commercial brand.
Thank you in advance!

Hello Diannaa, You have deleted our page citing "Copyright Violation". As the co-author of this document I am very frustrated with the ambiguous nature of these "processes"... From the last posting, I spoke with Jimfbleak and he pointed me to the tool that is used to verify possible copyright infringement. We have run this article through, completely reworked sections to ensure the tool did not find suspicions of violations... and the Only suspicious violation we couldn't clear was a third-party wiki which scraped our Draft page From wikipedia! We are trying to provide a community service here just as yourself by providing useful information to the public about open standards, and working very hard to follow the guidance of each editor that comes along... but we find no consistency. Can you please assist?? -Kind regards, Peter. Pbrunnen ( talk) 13:32, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
Hi, you recently redacted a whole bunch of edits at this page (on a very contentious topic that is in the news due to the war in Ukraine and the controversial celebration of a member of the unit in the Canadian parliament) for copyright violation. I was one of several editors whose edits are now hidden. Looking at the page , it now once again includes several errors that were corrected in recent errors. The source, doi 10.1080/13518046.2012.705633, for which you found copyright violation, is the main academic source on the article's topic, and was used with citations. Is there any way that the hidden edits can be reviewed to save the work of identifying all the problems again? Or of restoring recent edits that do not create copyright problems? Thank you!

Hello Diannaa, Earwig's Copyvio Detector shows a high probability of potential copyright content in the Somali calendar article. Regards. Woodlot ( talk) 19:52, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your kind comments. As far as I think, I have used my own words from the source, and I have taken precaution to cite the work as well. You need to probably educate me on this point. If a source says, "sun rises from the east", there are very few ways, I can rephrase it. I can probably say, "our star is always seen in the east in the morning" or something like that. But it would radically change the meaning. I have tried to rephrase the information using my own words without really changing the meaning substantially. Of course that is my personal view. I also add that I am a beginner, so probably I have indeed done some mistake. But a little education from experts like you is always welcome. I have no problem in accepting another person's view, as long as I can clearly understand my mistake. I am a bit sad, in this case, I cannot. Thanks anyway.

/info/en/?search=Alan_Campbell_(pastor) Hello again, I am certain that I saw the "copyrighted" text somewhere, but evidently not in that article's history. Hence, I will use the sources from the other site to revise the text of this article and include only quotes, since a quote cannot be amended. Pardon my "senior moment".

Hello again. I've revised the above, using sources available to anyone to summarise the new text and include part-quotes only.

We find ourselves in the year 2023, where a potent tool like ChatGPT exists to paraphrase and rework content with a diverse range of perspectives. With Wikipedia's copyright detection mechanisms in place, Diannaa's role may seem redundant and unnecessary. It raises a valid question: Diannaa, why are you still actively contributing to Wikipedia when we have ChatGPT at our disposal? Perhaps it's time to consider retiring and enjoying some well-deserved rest at home. This is a sincere suggestion, and I'm genuinely curious about your future plans.
Many Wikipedia editors are now turning to ChatGPT and Quillbot to assist in rewriting articles, making it increasingly challenging to detect copyright violations. I apologize for this, but could you please share your thoughts on the advancements in AI writing?

Hello Diannaa and sorry if I have caused you any trouble. I was going through my edits to look for a specific one and saw that an edit I made to the Carvana article was revision-deleted. Based on the fact that my edit was the first one suppressed, I assume that it was the problematic one. If possible, could I have the diff mailed to me to try to fix the issue? I think that the problem might have to do with a connection to the MI DoS Press Release that was released three days prior to Freep's article, but am not 100% sure.

I prefer not to address the Gautrain entry in the Copypatrol log. User_talk:Sphilbrick#Disagreement_re_Gautrain_article Talk page discussion. I don't think that it is acceptable but it may be a close call.

S Philbrick (Talk) 13:04, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
I just did something, I think for the first time ever, and wanted to check with you in case you had thoughts on a better procedure.
An edit to Building information modeling was reverted by another editor. The copy patrol entry reports a 98% match with an article which is behind a pay wall. I don't have access to it. I'm aware that we have a resource that can help look at things behind pay walls, but that seems like a fair amount of work just to confirm that it is in fact a copyright violation. I chose to revision delete it on the assumption that it is almost certainly a copyright violation, failing to revision delete it has implications I won't go into for beans reasons, and if it turns out my assumption is wrong, it's almost trivial to undo. I've run across similar situations in the past typically past to essentially means and turning it over to you to take care of. I'd like to handle it if you are on board with my handling but am reaching out in case there's another option I am missing. S Philbrick (Talk) 18:26, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

I've just doing good faith in editing and not intended to do copyvios. I'll have changes some words in the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia article. Anyway, thanks for remind me about the matter and after this, I will be more careful when added contents in Wikipedia articles in the future. Fandi89 ( talk) 03:02, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. Could you please take a look at the question I raised at Talk:Hydrogen vehicle regarding your revision-deletion? (I pinged you but I've learned some editors have pings turned off so these days I'm communicating the old-fashioned way. Let me know if you have a preference for pings or for notifications on your talk page ). Clayoquot ( talk | contribs) 14:25, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi again Dianaa. I have a tangential followup question - I'm looking for a plagiarism detection tool that will work in user sandboxes so that I (and my trainees) can check for issues before putting new content in mainspace. I set up a subpage, User:Clayoquot/Energy2, with the text that CopyPatrol flagged and ran it through Earwig's tool, but Earwig's tool failed to flag the problematic text. Is there away to run something similar to CopyPatrol on one's own sandbox or other subpage? Take care, Clayoquot ( talk | contribs) 16:56, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi, Diannaa, how are you? I wondered, after you blanked and listed this, did you look in detail at other contribs of this user? I've started on that, and am not at all reassured by what I've found – three more pages listed at WP:CP and one instance of unattributed CWW. Just checking with you in case this is ground you've already been over. I'm still in awe at the amount of work you manage to do, while I seem to get less and less done, particularly in the copyvio area, and my content creation activity is close to zilch.

Hi, I am hoping you can advise about whether there is copyvio in Evan McKie. The current version has lengthy quotes from a couple of sources, particularly La Notte.

Hi Diannaa (also pinging @ C.Fred), there's a VTRS ticket 2023091910006337 dealing with the text. As mentioned above Dr Chase (and the ticket also verifies his identity) is one of the co-authors of the text and therefore has joint copyright on the text. Under section 201(a) of the US Copyright Act each author can do as they wish with the entire content of the joint work (see [7] and [8]). As Dr Chase has, in the ticket, provided a consent statement releasing the content of the paper at [9] under CC-by-sa-4.0 I think any issues about copyvio of the text are resolved and subject to anything you want to add, I suggest we undelete the revdel'd revisions. Dr Chase is aware that Wikipedia is a collegiate environment and I don't think WP:OWN is going to be an issue.
There is a separate ticket 2023091710001845 which I am not dealing with in regard to the images. Nthep ( talk) 10:40, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello Diannaa. I gather you know which edit I am talking about without the need for me to provide diffs. I'd like to but it's all been "ghosted". I didn't know what the rules were here. Actually I altered the text to "redevelop" the points raised selling the same message. I'm not sure I did a good job. Being from Switzerland, I speak German (native), French and Italian, all better than I do English. LOL.

Hi Diannaa. Hoping you can help with Jonathan Freeman-Attwood. Earwig reports an 81.7% chance of copyvio when comparing to his biography at the Royal Academy of Music. I reverted to a version just before this edit from 2015, which I though cleared most of the copyvio (there was another substantial edit in 2023 which also looks like it uses material from the RAM). However, firstly if I do that we lose references that have been added since, and secondly the copyvio actually seems to go back further, to 2011 at least, when an editor posted on the Talk page "I am happy to confirm that the Royal Academy of Music has authorised free use of Prof Jonathan Freeman-Attwood's biography on wikipedia". Could you have a look and advise? I am happy to take it back to basics if that is the best way to go. Thanks. Tacyarg ( talk) 19:39, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello Diannaa, I came across the Joanna Shields, Baroness Shields article here and was going to try to help tidy-up, however, Earwig is 79.6% (and the CoI aspect looks tricky too). I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to approach a situation like this and thought I might ask you to have a look (as you recently intervened in the context of an article I was reviewing for NPP).

Hi @ Diannaa,
Thanks for your patient explanation- it was an honest mistake & really hasn’t happened before but will be mindful going forward. If this is considered resolved, may I request you to please delete the message ? Thank you for your understanding ! Medhavigandhi ( talk) 16:01, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. I hope you don't mind me seeking clarification from you on an editing issue that I keep running into but I would like the benefit of your extensive editing expertise. (I am raising it here as a general issue, rather than on the specific article talk page because it affects more that the one article.) I recently noticed that you removed the Category:1945 deaths from the article Adolf Hitler that included categories for both "1945 deaths" and "1945 suicides", on the basis that the former was a parent category of the latter. I recently had a question on this issue on a different article, and another editor explained to me that "xxxx suicides" is a "non-diffusing category" of "xxxx deaths", which is an exception to the general rule that articles are not placed in both a category and its subcategory and, therefore, both should be included. Please see the explanation in Help:Non-diffusing subcategories ( Wikipedia:DUPCAT) and the explanatory note at the top of any "xxxx suicides" category. This issue seems to come up a lot, with different editors both adding and deleting the "xxxx deaths" category to articles containing the "xxxx suicides" category. I want to be sure that the issue is being addressed in a consistent manner and that I have a firm understanding of which is correct. Most of the articles of persons who committed suicide in 1945 contain both categories. What is the right approach here? Thanks in advance for your assistance and clarification.

Hello, Diannaa! It's been a while since our last conversation. I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I could use your expertise on something. My good wikifriend, @ L'OrfeoGreco:, has translated an article he originally authored on Greek Wikipedia and has asked for my assistance prior to GAN. While I think it's quite well done, there may be an issue I'm not entirely sure about, so I'm seeking your wisdom. Specifically, the "synopsis" section seems to closely mirror the source. Could you please take a look, determine if there is indeed a problem, and perhaps offer a few potential solutions? Thank you! Cinadon 36 11:49, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Source is this one:

I am uncertain about rewording the text. Also about structure, since our text follows the same events in the same order. Maybe I being too cautious. Have a look here:
Or at Act I
Or at Interlude:
Or at act III
There are similarities but they are unavoidable I presume. So, is it ok? Cinadon 36 14:55, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello,

Are you aware that the Powerbase article is a copy of earlier versions of this article's Wikipedia page, which was used to create their "own content" when it doesn't belong to them: hence, you have picked up a false positive? Please undo that part of your revision. As a contributor to the GA Nominations page, I hope I always try to keep to the rules, but I may go wrong now and again. I will revise the Belfast Telegraph page when you have done so. Regards to you Billsmith60 ( talk) 14:27, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello,
As I understand it. you are claiming that I've violated copyright by taking text from https://adct.org.za/most-reverend-archbishop-stephen-brislin/ that describes his coat of arms... but what copyright is on that, and I'm certain the Archbishop - whose website it is - would want his explanation to go along with the graphics??? There was a citation requested and I linked to the page - but this has no copyright. Perhaps you are thinking about US law... but I respectfully do not think it applies.

Hello, Diannaa!
I would like to make a quick question on a subject of your specialisation.
I am the main contributor to the article
Nausicaa (opera), currently
a high priority GA candidate.
I just came across
this audio file on Internet Archive; it is the opera's one and only recording, available in its entirety via the IA.
Do you think I could add the link at the "External links" section, or is doing so forbidden? I mean, the recording is not distributed without copyright regulations, because it was originally published in 1961 by a commercial brand.
Thank you in advance!

Hello Diannaa, You have deleted our page citing "Copyright Violation". As the co-author of this document I am very frustrated with the ambiguous nature of these "processes"... From the last posting, I spoke with Jimfbleak and he pointed me to the tool that is used to verify possible copyright infringement. We have run this article through, completely reworked sections to ensure the tool did not find suspicions of violations... and the Only suspicious violation we couldn't clear was a third-party wiki which scraped our Draft page From wikipedia! We are trying to provide a community service here just as yourself by providing useful information to the public about open standards, and working very hard to follow the guidance of each editor that comes along... but we find no consistency. Can you please assist?? -Kind regards, Peter. Pbrunnen ( talk) 13:32, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
Hi, you recently redacted a whole bunch of edits at this page (on a very contentious topic that is in the news due to the war in Ukraine and the controversial celebration of a member of the unit in the Canadian parliament) for copyright violation. I was one of several editors whose edits are now hidden. Looking at the page , it now once again includes several errors that were corrected in recent errors. The source, doi 10.1080/13518046.2012.705633, for which you found copyright violation, is the main academic source on the article's topic, and was used with citations. Is there any way that the hidden edits can be reviewed to save the work of identifying all the problems again? Or of restoring recent edits that do not create copyright problems? Thank you!

Hello Diannaa, Earwig's Copyvio Detector shows a high probability of potential copyright content in the Somali calendar article. Regards. Woodlot ( talk) 19:52, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your kind comments. As far as I think, I have used my own words from the source, and I have taken precaution to cite the work as well. You need to probably educate me on this point. If a source says, "sun rises from the east", there are very few ways, I can rephrase it. I can probably say, "our star is always seen in the east in the morning" or something like that. But it would radically change the meaning. I have tried to rephrase the information using my own words without really changing the meaning substantially. Of course that is my personal view. I also add that I am a beginner, so probably I have indeed done some mistake. But a little education from experts like you is always welcome. I have no problem in accepting another person's view, as long as I can clearly understand my mistake. I am a bit sad, in this case, I cannot. Thanks anyway.

We find ourselves in the year 2023, where a potent tool like ChatGPT exists to paraphrase and rework content with a diverse range of perspectives. With Wikipedia's copyright detection mechanisms in place, Diannaa's role may seem redundant and unnecessary. It raises a valid question: Diannaa, why are you still actively contributing to Wikipedia when we have ChatGPT at our disposal? Perhaps it's time to consider retiring and enjoying some well-deserved rest at home. This is a sincere suggestion, and I'm genuinely curious about your future plans.
Many Wikipedia editors are now turning to ChatGPT and Quillbot to assist in rewriting articles, making it increasingly challenging to detect copyright violations. I apologize for this, but could you please share your thoughts on the advancements in AI writing?

Hello Diannaa and sorry if I have caused you any trouble. I was going through my edits to look for a specific one and saw that an edit I made to the Carvana article was revision-deleted. Based on the fact that my edit was the first one suppressed, I assume that it was the problematic one. If possible, could I have the diff mailed to me to try to fix the issue? I think that the problem might have to do with a connection to the MI DoS Press Release that was released three days prior to Freep's article, but am not 100% sure.

I just did something, I think for the first time ever, and wanted to check with you in case you had thoughts on a better procedure.
An edit to Building information modeling was reverted by another editor. The copy patrol entry reports a 98% match with an article which is behind a pay wall. I don't have access to it. I'm aware that we have a resource that can help look at things behind pay walls, but that seems like a fair amount of work just to confirm that it is in fact a copyright violation. I chose to revision delete it on the assumption that it is almost certainly a copyright violation, failing to revision delete it has implications I won't go into for beans reasons, and if it turns out my assumption is wrong, it's almost trivial to undo. I've run across similar situations in the past typically past to essentially means and turning it over to you to take care of.
