 * List of the 100 wealthiest people ([ history] · [ last edit]) from [subst:article-cv|:List of the 100 wealthiest people]. Vassyana (talk) 05:08, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Appears to be a simple objective list, and facts cannot be copyrighted. Is this infringing on Forbes' presentation somehow? Powers T 15:17, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No, it doesn't, unless we copy the exact format with the exact wording exactly. I've seen 3 or 4 of these lists put up here as copyright violations in the last week, but the content of the list is not copyrighted because anyone could make their own list, with identical requirements, independent of someone else.

 * Badminton Horse Trials ([ history] · [ last edit]) from . Paulbrock (talk) 14:28, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Just the one section is copied; excising it should solve the problem. Powers T 15:17, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No, nearly everything from History down to [Headline text] looks like it came from that site. Paulbrock (talk) 16:26, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, missed the history section, since it was out of order. =)  The "list of interesting facts", though, doesn't seem to be copied, and the list of winners is not copyrightable.  So what would we have left if we excised the "History" section as well as "Organisation"?  Powers T 17:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I think the history section could be tossed without any problem. The organization section has some good info, but needs to be re-written with other info added, in order to make it not a copy-vio. The other sections aren't copyvio (as far as I can find), but do need some work.  This is really under wing of WP Equine (of which I'm a member), and we've obviously been neglectful with this article, seeing that apparently none of us have it watchlisted *grin*.  I'd be willing to volunteer to re-write this article, as the whole thing needs some work, but probably wouldn't be able to have a serious go at it until early next week. Dana boomer (talk) 19:46, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, I've gone through the article and removed/rewritten all of the copyvio stuff. The article still needs some work, and the whole thing is still unreferenced, but it's better now, I guess :)  Let me know if there's anything wrong with what I've done. Dana boomer (talk) 13:37, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It's fine now. Since it was one or two sections and there were clean revisions in its past, the article doesn't have to be deleted unless the copyright holder complains to the Foundation. Thanks for the hard work. Krakatoa  Katie  00:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Pool Re ([ history] · [ last edit]) from (added to article in these two edits in January 2006). Thryduulf (talk) 15:15, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

 * World Affairs Council of Washington, DC ([ history] · [ last edit]) from . Permission is claimed by authors. Possibly some previous valid versions in the history but will need infringing versions deleted. Stifle (talk) 21:31, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Deleted, new stub created. Krakatoa  Katie  00:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

 * This was a mess, a tangle of three separate sites copied and pasted in, with original research and synthesis added along the way. The only thing that wasn't a steal was the first sentence and the categories. I had to delete the article and create a new bare stub. Krakatoa  Katie  00:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
