01:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Hello! Thank you for the warm welcome, and I truly appreciate the guidance and efforts to maintain the integrity and copyright compliance of Wikipedia's content. I'm delighted to be part of this vibrant community. I wanted to clarify that my contributions, specifically the edit to the Dua Lipa page, come from a unique position where I'm directly working with Madame Tussauds New York. As part of my role, I have obtained all necessary copyright approvals to use content from Madame Tussauds' website and associated materials. These approvals ensure that the content I contributed complies with Wikipedia's copyright policies and is available under a suitable free license for use on the platform. Given this context, I kindly request if you could consider undoing the deletion of the content I added, or if possible, restore it so that I may review and make any necessary alterations to align with Wikipedia's standards and requirements. This would greatly help in enriching the Dua Lipa page with accurate and authorized information, contributing to the knowledge and appreciation of her fans and Wikipedia users alike. Thank you again for your understanding and assistance in this matter. I look forward to collaborating closely with the community to ensure the information on Wikipedia is both accurate and compliant with all legal and copyright standards.

Hello Diannaa!
Was attempting to replicate the math ( Tax Levy / Tax Base = Tax Rate ) of how Tax increment financing increases taxes from Quigley's Tale of Two Cities: Reinventing Tax Increment Finance page 29 table 11 on the Tax Increment Finance page. I referenced the Authors webpage - is this a quote issue ? I could change the name of the variable names, or do I just need to call out the information is from the author in the sentence instead of just referencing the citation ? https://www.tifreports.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Tale_Two_Cities-Quigley.pdf I am leery of altering the math.

Hi there, I think you don't quite understand copyright: protected are creative products, NOT factual or scientific statements, especially given that I modified them.

Hello User:Diannaa, I have just created a brand new English article for Ukrainian conductor: Volodymyr Sirenko as part of the Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month 2024 drive. I started it from scratch and have been extremely careful with the referencing. I moved the page from my user draftspace to the Mainspace earlier today. I did all of this before I became aware that there had been an attempt at an article in 2016 and that you nominated it for speedy deletion. Obviously I would not want this to happen again! My concern is with the photograph I have used, which I obtained from Wikicommons. I have assumed that it was ok to use that photo, partly because it was on Wikicommons, but also because it is currently in use on the other language Wikipedia articles, the Ukrainian one and the German, in particular. Is this the same image that caused the copyvio issues back in 2016? Please let me know as I can remove the image. Thank you. SpookiePuppy ( talk) 09:31, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi! We're conducting a series of participatory workshops with Wikipedia editors, administrators, researchers, and Wikimedia employees to discuss, and hopefully improve, Wikipedia's structures for online research (see meta research page). In an effort to get the right people in the room to discuss these topics, I'm reaching out here to see if you are interested in participating as an active administrator. We'd work with you to ensure this workshop can fit into your schedule, but are targeting end of April/early May. I'm happy to discuss any of these topics further here or on our talk page.

Yeah, I hastily switched words on that one. I fixed it, however. I was wondering, however, if you knew anyone who could sic an archive bot on the article in question Keanu Reeves in the media.

Hi Diannaa, based on your notice, and after talking with the above user - I did go through the bioregion article to remove any/all copyrighted text, and also shortened the quotes to make sure they were just pieces of quotes - rather than the thing the entirety. Please feel free to review the Bioregion article, and let me know if there's anything else I can do to improve the content or links. I'm just going to leave things as is for now. Sorry, I'm definitely still learning the ropes here a bit. Thanks for your patience.( User talk:CascadiaWikimedian) 12:44, 29 March 2024 (PST)

Fingering (sexual act) should be split into two articles. One for vulvar/vaginal fingering with its current title and the other for anal fingering with the new title "anal fingering".

A recent edit of mine on Jean-Rodolphe Perronet removed by you in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. I can't accress my edits on the article as they are locked somehow.I cannot see the changes I made that triggered this warning, so I am somewhat disadvantaged in responding to your complaint.
I take pride in the number of my contributions to Wikipedia over the past eleven years. I searched my talk page to find my last "Warning". I couldn't find it. I remember somewhere in the past, 2017, 2018?... I got a copyright warning. This "third warning" seems draconian... Risk Engineer ( talk) 12:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
Can you explain me why you literally removed all of the content for “copyright” ??? Prady1 ( talk) 00:02, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I saw that you removed literally all quotes from Ancient North Eurasians, but I am not sure if that is correct. These quotes were used to verify the content. Is the main problem based on the respective copyright of the papers or something else? Because for example this paper is [3] 'Open Access' and "licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License, which permits use, sharing, adaptation, distribution and reproduction in any medium or format, as long as you give appropriate credit to the original author(s) and the source". As such I want to ask for the exact reason. Thanks! Regards – Wikiuser1314 ( talk) 08:44, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, I am seeking your advice on a specific copyright infridgement issue. I have just delisted Crusading movement (a GA nominated by Norfolkbigfish) for several reasons, including repeated copyright violations. Close paraphrasing and plagiarism were detected in almost every version of the article. As far as I can remember, first time I indicated close paraphrasing two years ago ( [4]). AirshipJungleman29 also detected such issues: [5]. During the FAC review AirshipJungleman29 specifically raised copyright issues, and Norfolkbigfish said that he was "expecting/hoping this is no longer an issue" [6]. Unfortunatelly, Norfolkbigfish proved wrong as during the FAC review I found several examples of plagiarism and close paraphrasing, and an other reviewer Jens Lallensack confirmed some of my finds [7]. The FAC was closed, I opened a GAR, and during the process I realised that even texts revised by Norfolkbigfish contain close paraphrasing ( [8]). I turned to you because I do not know what to do. Borsoka ( talk) 06:23, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
Is this version ok? [9]. I will be taking this editor to ANI at some point, still doesn't understand the need to source their text despite multiple warnings. Doug Weller talk 08:26, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi there. It is now more accepted to use Antisemitism instead of the outdated 'Anti-semitism'. The latter was a term created as a pseudo-scientific explanation for the hatred of Jews, often associated with the Nazi ideology of racial classification ( https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/spelling-antisemitism / https://www.adl.org/spelling-antisemitism-vs-anti-semitism). Additionally, due to antisemitic vandalism, it is often locked pages (such as the Hitler page) in which this correction is needed. Thanks. 81.108.69.245 ( talk) 22:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi thank you for warning me about a copyright issue and removing my narrative. You provided me with some direction of Wiki policies on the copyright issue, but I can not find a couple important items; Can you please provide the link to the tool online you are using to determine plagiarism; and please provide how you verify something is copyright protected? These two items are a little vague and I am sure some sources which claim to be copyright protected actually have no copyright at all. Is this determined subjectively by yourself or is there an actually cross reference to a copyright granted made by the source? Thank you for your help and good work on wiki!

Hi! My name is Avery, and I want to ask you about the process for reinstating a Wikipedia page that has been deleted. My friend Julie Ragbeer was recently covered by several entertainment news outlets including Yahoo and Interview Magazine when a promoted Tweet / “X” post about her music went viral. Fans made a Wikipedia page, but we believe some people mass-reported it, and the page was reviewed and deleted. Julie is notable and has a large following now, and is deserving of having a page that people can learn about her career and music. Could you please reinstate it? Thank you in advance for any help you can provide! Averyjoanfaust ( talk) 13:50, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you removed content from the Yoda page due to copyright issues. Here's my question: in the page's edit history, why are all my edits crossed out instead of treated like edits that are reverted? I was hoping to go back to those edits and harvest some content that didn't violate copyright, but I can't access those earlier revisions. Also, some edits that didn't violate copyright are also crossed out, but haven't been reverted. I'm confused. Wafflewombat ( talk) 22:28, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Overlapping material is shown in Bold.
To answer your question about revision deletion: In order to completely remove the material from the page history, all the intervening edits have to be hidden, from the time of insertion of the copyright material to its removal. This means that in many instances, harmless edits have to be hidden. — Diannaa ( talk) 23:16, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

(If you're busy, just let me know and I can go and bother somebody else)
I came across this article Acapulco Chair, that seemed to be a copyvio. I tagged it for deletion, and then I saw the user who had made it and, given their extensive editing history, was surprised and went to look further. Turns out it was just an unattributed translation from esWiki that somebody had already machine translated. However, when I was looking into that, I checked their editing history and a few articles they've made, and after glancing at the Spanish-language sources, it seems like there's a few cases of way-too-close paraphrasing/copyvios on both of them. ( Draft:Tortitas de papa/the duplicate Tortita (Mexican food) from here and Pescado a la talla from here)
Now I'm wondering if maybe I've missed something, or if I'm seeing something that's not there. I'd really like a second opinion GreenLipstickLesbian ( talk) 01:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Can You Please Elaborate Where & How I Violated Copyright Laws In My Recent Edit On Mein Kampf... BTW, According To Me, I Actually Stated The Another Aspect Of Massive Popularity Of Mein Kampf By Adolf Hitler In India, By Citing The Source... Dibyayoti176255 ( talk) 02:25, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
Hey Diannaa, I am having some trouble getting the reply tool to work in the proper section (feel free to merge this message), but just wanted to let you know that I’ll be back from traveling by tomorrow (Wednesday) evening and will be able to help out then. Best, DanCherek ( talk) 02:55, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
We had a discussion in Talk:Androgen_backdoor_pathway, where an editor requesting a quote: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Talk%3AAndrogen_backdoor_pathway&diff=1213501476&oldid=1213500731
I'm not sure that this quote would not trigger a copyright violation.
I gave a quote but I'm not sure that I was right, could you please check Androgen_backdoor_pathway whether it was OK to gave such a quote: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Androgen_backdoor_pathway&diff=1213505632&oldid=1213486866 Maxim Masiutin ( talk) 13:34, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Should I request a history merge for the copying from the list article into the draft, or does your edit summary adequately provide attribution? Robert McClenon ( talk) 21:45, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Earwig is setting off a few alarms for Ronnie Wavehill, I think the article is OK, could you please double check for me? Regards. Hughesdarren ( talk) 09:40, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi! We're conducting a series of participatory workshops with Wikipedia editors, administrators, researchers, and Wikimedia employees to discuss, and hopefully improve, Wikipedia's structures for online research (see meta research page). In an effort to get the right people in the room to discuss these topics, I'm reaching out here to see if you are interested in participating as an active administrator. We'd work with you to ensure this workshop can fit into your schedule, but are targeting end of April/early May. I'm happy to discuss any of these topics further here or on our talk page.

Yeah, I hastily switched words on that one. I fixed it, however. I was wondering, however, if you knew anyone who could sic an archive bot on the article in question Keanu Reeves in the media. Someone did a sweep once before, but so much content has been added that it's needed again. Thanks, again. I'm a noob who doesn't know much of this stuff.

Hi Diannaa, notwithstanding your earlier cleanup and notice, it looks like the copyright violations have continued. Cheers, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:E004:1418:F10B:6EBF ( talk) 03:32, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, based on your notice, and after talking with the above user - I did go through the bioregion article to remove any/all copyrighted text, and also shortened the quotes to make sure they were just pieces of quotes - rather than the thing the entirety. Please feel free to review the Bioregion article, and let me know if there's anything else I can do to improve the content or links. I'm just going to leave things as is for now. Sorry, I'm definitely still learning the ropes here a bit. Thanks for your patience.( User talk:CascadiaWikimedian) 12:44, 29 March 2024 (PST)
Is there anyway we can split Vulva into two articles properly? One for humans and one for non-humans? I want to see if there is a way to properly do it. Thanks. Autisticeditor 20 ( talk) 15:08, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

Fingering (sexual act) should be split into two articles. One for vulvar/vaginal fingering with its current title and the other for anal fingering with the new title "anal fingering". While fingering is a similar activity whether genitalia or anus, they are different nonetheless, in regards to technique and health risks. Autisticeditor 20 ( talk) 19:30, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
Can you help me create a Wikipedia page for artist Jesubamise Afolayan ( talk) 14:12, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Please see meta:Talk:CopyPatrol#New CopyPatrol is live for details. One thing of note is that the number of daily reports has pretty much tripled, so please stop by whenever you get a chance and clear some cases. Thanks! — Diannaa ( talk) 21:12, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Morning Diannaa, not sure if the lyric's at the bottom of this section is a copy vio, could you have a look when you're able, much appreciated. Cheers, - FlightTime ( open channel) 13:51, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
Cornelius Benedictus has added a lot to this article. Do you use Who wrote that? Anyway, see [2], Some of that is his. Doug Weller talk 15:01, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
A recent edit of mine on Jean-Rodolphe Perronet removed by you in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. I can't accress my edits on the article as they are locked somehow.I cannot see the changes I made that triggered this warning, so I am somewhat disadvantaged in responding to your complaint.
I take pride in the number of my contributions to Wikipedia over the past eleven years. I searched my talk page to find my last "Warning". I couldn't find it. I remember somewhere in the past, 2017, 2018?... I got a copyright warning. This "third warning" seems draconian... Risk Engineer ( talk) 12:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
Can you explain me why you literally removed all of the content for “copyright” ??? Prady1 ( talk) 00:02, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I saw that you removed literally all quotes from Ancient North Eurasians, but I am not sure if that is correct. These quotes were used to verify the content. Is the main problem based on the respective copyright of the papers or something else? Because for example this paper is [3] 'Open Access' and "licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License, which permits use, sharing, adaptation, distribution and reproduction in any medium or format, as long as you give appropriate credit to the original author(s) and the source". As such I want to ask for the exact reason. Thanks! Regards – Wikiuser1314 ( talk) 08:44, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, I am seeking your advice on a specific copyright infridgement issue. I have just delisted Crusading movement (a GA nominated by Norfolkbigfish) for several reasons, including repeated copyright violations. Close paraphrasing and plagiarism were detected in almost every version of the article. As far as I can remember, first time I indicated close paraphrasing two years ago ( [4]). AirshipJungleman29 also detected such issues: [5]. During the FAC review AirshipJungleman29 specifically raised copyright issues, and Norfolkbigfish said that he was "expecting/hoping this is no longer an issue" [6]. Unfortunatelly, Norfolkbigfish proved wrong as during the FAC review I found several examples of plagiarism and close paraphrasing, and an other reviewer Jens Lallensack confirmed some of my finds [7]. The FAC was closed, I opened a GAR, and during the process I realised that even texts revised by Norfolkbigfish contain close paraphrasing ( [8]). I turned to you because I do not know what to do. Borsoka ( talk) 06:23, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
Is this version ok? [9]. I will be taking this editor to ANI at some point, still doesn't understand the need to source their text despite multiple warnings. Doug Weller talk 08:26, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi there. It is now more accepted to use Antisemitism instead of the outdated 'Anti-semitism'. The latter was a term created as a pseudo-scientific explanation for the hatred of Jews, often associated with the Nazi ideology of racial classification ( https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/spelling-antisemitism / https://www.adl.org/spelling-antisemitism-vs-anti-semitism). Additionally, due to antisemitic vandalism, it is often locked pages (such as the Hitler page) in which this correction is needed. Thanks. 81.108.69.245 ( talk) 22:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
You could have asked me, and I could have simply removed the verbiage. I was trying to save a work by someone else. Again ... you should have asked first. It would have been easier. — Maile ( talk) 01:19, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Patrollers please be aware that some drafts and articles are redlinked at CopyPatrol even though they exist. Please don't automatically mark as "No action needed"; check them in the usual way. This problem is likely due to replication lag, whatever that means! Tracked at Phab report T363089. — Diannaa ( talk) 13:06, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Please reinstate our page forthwith. As we made clear on the page ALL the material on the page is our copyright and taken from our archives, most of which are in paper form; minutes, reports, etc , and have been deposited in archives eg Working Class Movement Library. . The page on the Anarchist Federation blog was copied from IBRG articles.. https://www.anarchistfederation.net/40th-anniversary-of-radical-irish-community-organisation-the-irish-in-britain-representation-group/ These are the originals posted by Bernadette Hyland - IBRG member- on her blog Lipstick Socialist. https://lipsticksocialist.com/history-of-the-irish-in-britain-representation-group/ She also wrote the Wikipedia page. We hope that that this makes the position on this page clear. BFCHyland ( talk) 15:29, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi thank you for warning me about a copyright issue and removing my narrative. You provided me with some direction of Wiki policies on the copyright issue, but I can not find a couple important items; Can you please provide the link to the tool online you are using to determine plagiarism; and please provide how you verify something is copyright protected? These two items are a little vague and I am sure some sources which claim to be copyright protected actually have no copyright at all. Is this determined subjectively by yourself or is there an actually cross reference to a copyright granted made by the source? Thank you for your help and good work on wiki!

Hi! My name is Avery, and I want to ask you about the process for reinstating a Wikipedia page that has been deleted. My friend Julie Ragbeer was recently covered by several entertainment news outlets including Yahoo and Interview Magazine when a promoted Tweet / “X” post about her music went viral. Fans made a Wikipedia page, but we believe some people mass-reported it, and the page was reviewed and deleted. Julie is notable and has a large following now, and is deserving of having a page that people can learn about her career and music. Could you please reinstate it? Thank you in advance for any help you can provide! Averyjoanfaust ( talk) 13:50, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you removed content from the Yoda page due to copyright issues. Here's my question: in the page's edit history, why are all my edits crossed out instead of treated like edits that are reverted? I was hoping to go back to those edits and harvest some content that didn't violate copyright, but I can't access those earlier revisions. Also, some edits that didn't violate copyright are also crossed out, but haven't been reverted. I'm confused. Wafflewombat ( talk) 22:28, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Yoda was a legendary Jedi Master and stronger than most in his connection with the Force. Small in size but wise and powerful, he trained Jedi for over 800 years, playing integral roles in the Clone Wars, the instruction of Luke Skywalker, and unlocking the path to immortality.
Yoda was a Jedi Master who was stronger than most with the Force. Standing 0.66 meters (2.2 ft) tall, Yoda trained Jedi for over 800 years and played an integral role in the Clone Wars. His last apprentice was Luke Skywalker. Yoda's species and homeworld have never been named in any official Star Wars media.{{Citation needed|date=April 2024}}
Overlapping material is shown in Bold.
To answer your question about revision deletion: In order to completely remove the material from the page history, all the intervening edits have to be hidden, from the time of insertion of the copyright material to its removal. This means that in many instances, harmless edits have to be hidden. — Diannaa ( talk) 23:16, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
@ Diannaa Hi! I was wondering why my revisions on the Ghaznavid campaigns in India were deleted? I only added sources (where it said citations needed), and wondering how it would be a copyright vio? Noorullah ( talk) 05:33, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

(If you're busy, just let me know and I can go and bother somebody else)
I came across this article Acapulco Chair, that seemed to be a copyvio. I tagged it for deletion, and then I saw the user who had made it and, given their extensive editing history, was surprised and went to look further. Turns out it was just an unattributed translation from esWiki that somebody had already machine translated. However, when I was looking into that, I checked their editing history and a few articles they've made, and after glancing at the Spanish-language sources, it seems like there's a few cases of way-too-close paraphrasing/copyvios on both of them. ( Draft:Tortitas de papa/the duplicate Tortita (Mexican food) from here and Pescado a la talla from here)
Now I'm wondering if maybe I've missed something, or if I'm seeing something that's not there. I'd really like a second opinion GreenLipstickLesbian ( talk) 01:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi I ran across this draft and was going to develop it, but realized it seemed lifted from a book or another source. It failed my copyright tester. Can you please check it? Thank you! Geraldine Aino ( talk) 15:02, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
