Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)

 * David W. Stewart, Ph.D. ([ history] · [ last edit]) from PDF file named "Curriculum Vitae" located on http://soba.ucr.edu/directory/faculty.html?netid=dstewart. Article has already been CSD'd for copyvio twice (same creator). As non-admin, I'm obviously unable to check if the text is the same as on previous creations.

 * I received an e-mail from the creator about this article. While the article has great comparison to the source, it appears to be just publications that match. That usually qualifies under fair-use. If the article is kept though, it needs a clean-up as it appears like a resume/promotional bio.--NortyNort (Holla) 13:41, 20 October 2011 (UTC).
 * I'd agree with that source, but it copies from other sources more substantially; for instance, . Duplication detector finds 494 match candidates, including two chunks of text 44 words long. They are not titles. :/ I've left a note on the talk page of the contributor with a couple of specific passages. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:01, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The Superhero in the Alley ([ history] · [ last edit]) from www.bonestvseries.net (site no longer in existence - see talk page for more info). This was speedily deleted, but restored for investigation. The article seems to predate the suspected source, but I believe that the plot description is substantially too detailed to be safe. It seems to have been copied from the corresponding Wikia article, which would require attribution. See notes on my talk page. Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:06, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Fundación Ciudadano Inteligente (Smart Citizen Foundation) ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://www.newtactics.org/en/thread/how-have-you-used-technology-promote-transparency, possibly other sources; see talk and Wikipedia talk:Copyright problems. (That's a real link of the template blanking the article) Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:19, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
