Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)

 * Cement City, Texas ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/hrc36. Trivialist (talk) 00:50, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
 * That's a straight-up copy and paste from Maxwell's 2010 piece. There is no earlier version to roll back to. Looks like a candidate for speedy deletion. Cnilep (talk) 08:10, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

 * El Salvador during World War II ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from http://www.nonviolent-conflict.org/index.php/movements-and-campaigns/movements-and-campaigns-summaries?sobi2Task=sobi2Details&catid=26&sobi2Id=32 http://progressive.org/mp_ertll121207 http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/vjw/ElSalvador.html#ww2 see Contributor copyright investigations/$1LENCE D00600D. I strongly suspect there is also significant copying from the two print sources the article is so heavily reliant on. MER-C 05:02, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Almost everything cited to Ackerman, which is most of the first two sections, is either very close paraphrase (e.g. "Within a fortnight of the insurrection, Martínez seemed unassailable once again," paraphrased as "Within two weeks after the failed uprising, Martínez once again seemed untouchable") or directly copied. The three web pages identified by MER-C are also directly copied or closely paraphrased. Some of the copying is present from the 31 August 2013 article creation by $1LENCE D00600D.
