 * User:KAVEBEAR/Kukona ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://web.archive.org/web/20031223052658/http://www.mauiculture.net/mookuauhau/index.html CCI request: KAVEBEAR. I'm not too confident about this one, see the CCI request for my reasoning. MER-C 13:09, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 * To Older consolidated while we await the CCI result. Dpmuk (talk) 19:50, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I deleted it. I could not find a PD source for this. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:58, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Shri Manjunatha Swamy ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://www.shridharmasthala.org/. I have already identified several sub pages at the aforementioned website from which text of various lengths was copied. There are however sections of text that do not appears to be copied, and some portions of the copied text may be permissible as fair use, though other segments are clearly not.

 * Deleting, foundational copyvio as most content is copied from the Karnataka Tourism website and the individual temple websites. Anything that's left over belongs in the yellow pages, not here. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  20:29, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Morphy versus the Duke of Brunswick and Count Isouard ([ history] · [ last edit]) from http://academickids.com/encyclopedia/index.php/Opera_game


 * The original 24 November 2006 version of the Morphy versus the Duke of Brunswick and Count Isouard Wikipedia page...


 * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morphy_versus_the_Duke_of_Brunswick_and_Count_Isouard&oldid=89849382


 * ...appears to be identical to this page that claims to have been last modified on 10 Jun 2005:


 * http://academickids.com/encyclopedia/index.php/Opera_game


 * Which, according to Mirrors and forks/Abc, is a mirror of the WP database from June 23, 2005 with no mention of Wikipedia as a source.


 * I think this originated on Wikipedia, but I cannot confirm it through the page history. --Guy Macon (talk) 19:13, 22 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting support.svg Backwardscopy. Tag and explanation placed at talk page. From what I can see this has existed on wikipedia since at least 2004 (I suspect you are showing 100 edits per history page and forgot to click on previous) and given the known status as a mirror I'm happy calling this a backwards copy. Have not tagged due to being a known mirror --Dpmuk (talk) 15:18, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Kedarnath Wild Life Sanctuary ([ history] · [ last edit]) with no source given. Close paraphrase. DpmukBOT (talk) 08:12, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
 * To Older consolidated - this one could require a lot of work (especially given how long it's been tagged and that one source is no longer available). Dpmuk (talk) 19:50, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

 * This is a nightmare! See User:Daizus/Investigation/Plagiarisms for multiple examples of verbatim or near verbatim copying in this article. A further cursory search reveals yet more. Plus the article has extensive quotations of translated text. Some of these translations are still in copyright. Blanking this and relisting under today.

 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Some remaining multi-word phrases, but the longest is the formal name of an association. IMO, OK now -- SPhilbrick (Talk)  17:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
