Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)

 * Université d'été de Boulogne-sur-Mer ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://www.uebm.org/historique/en/historique.html. Deor (talk) 13:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
 * List of Shaun the Sheep episodes ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://www.hitnewsonline.com/releases/detail/shaun_the_sheep_sheep_on_the_loose/P85. Note that the episode descriptions more or less match where the two overlap. It is possible that other early episode descriptions on the list are also copyvios although many of the later ones are too badly written to be taken from a professionally written source. The copyvio does not seem to be recent. Recent edits have seen the text diverging slightly from the copyvio version but not enough to cure the problem.

 * I was mistaken in filing this as copyvio. The text in question has been released as part of a fan media pack under a rather ambiguous licence saying "Get episode guides, character bios, interviews and any production notes to help you write info on the show". This seems to be a licence to reuse their text although I still urge some caution. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:51, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * This is filed under the wrong date, per the existing article's tag as of 5 September.
 * This may be overreach, without intermediate remedies applied or discussed. See article Talk:List of Shaun the Sheep episodes for quite old explicit permission granted. HIT Entertainment, as a publicity firm, directly quotes Aardman episode descriptions, as do many, many other websites, under the aegis of press release material. If copyvio of a press release is the issue here, requesting more careful paraphrasing, or quoting with citations, would have been the appropriate action.
 * This may be moot, as discussion is now progressing in Talk. --Lexein (talk) 19:47, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I am not sure how it came to be filed under the wrong day. The template gave me a link and said to add it there and I followed it assuming it to be correct. Perhaps this is a problem in the template. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:53, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * The template might have needed a subst? That's an odd one. Thanks for the heads-up, and for rescinding. Talk:List of Shaun the Sheep episodes. --Lexein (talk) 20:18, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Seems this one has been resolved. :) In terms of the timestamp, however, I believe all is in order there. The copyvio template was first placed here, 19:37, 4 September 2010. There may be some confusion in that it was reinstated on the 5th. I will admit to some concern when first reading that it had resolved in that we can only accept content licensed compatibly with CC-By-SA, which requires explicit permission of modification, but the handling of the material at the actual page is all in order, with proper paraphrasing and quotation marks as far as I see on cursory review. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:53, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
