Checking for reliable sources, I only find https://www2.northwestmuseum.org/museum/participant-fitch-alice-underwood-3477.htm. If that biography precedes the Wikipedia article then the Wikipedia article is a clear copyright violation. If the Wikipedia article precedes the posted biography at the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, then using it as a source would be circular. I am not finding much else in WP:BEFORE to bring this up to wiki standards. Bringing it to the group for consideration. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 22:06, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

 * KEEP - I've added a couple of sources found via Google newspapers. She was apparently a highly respected artist in her era. — Maile (talk) 00:20, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks . Do you think the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture bio came before the Wikipedia? and if so, do you see copyvio as I do? https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Alice+Underwood+Fitch&oldid=&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1&turnitin=0 --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:27, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I see the copyvio. I can't tell which came first.  What do you say about it? — Maile  (talk) 01:39, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't know. That's why I brought it here. I am hoping someone with more forensic skills can help. I don't want to rewrite if it is circular. The article was creating in 2012 by an SPA --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 15:32, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Given that the article was originally written in 2012 I suspect it came first and citing that NW museum bio would be circular. -- asilvering (talk) 00:37, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Agree with Asilvering. I was just looking at Earwig's copyvio detector with a magnifying glass, and the museum article is definitely dated "Site Design ©2021 Klündt | Hosmer", which was 9 years after the Fitch article. — Maile  (talk) 02:50, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Comment I have removed https://www2.northwestmuseum.org/museum/participant-fitch-alice-underwood-3477.htm as a reference, assuming it was copied from Wikipedia. I hae also removed uncited material. That pretty much leaves her local obituary and the fact that she was decorated with the Ordre des Palmes Académiques  in 1908. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:22, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
