 * Fawn Rogers ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from http://www.saatchiart.com/FawnRogers. Foundational copyvio, speedy deletion tag removed by article creator. Looks as if there may be a COI problem here as well. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 21:14, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I've removed the copyvio tag. The article was a copyvio committed by someone else; User:Artthings significantly rewrote it after the deleted content had been supplied by the deleting admin. I can't find more than a few snippets of the original wording remaining; not enough IMO to still be considered problematic. If you disagree, please provide specific examples.

 * Well,, please see this DupDet report, which seems to show substantial copying from the supposed source in the initial version of the article. Much of that has now been rephrased, but I don't see where the original copyvio was removed (as the bot notice clearly says, "Note that simply modified or rephrased text is still an infringement—to remove the copyrighted contents you will need to completely remove them and then write totally new text to replace it"). Obviously I can't see the whole picture here, but I'm also a little mystified as to why described  as "definitely not a copyvio" when this DupDet report (and visual comparison) seem to show that it definitely is one, or indeed restored copyvio content in the first place (perhaps it was not then clear that it was a copyvio?). Anyway, I'm probably wrong, but I don't myself see this as resolved yet, and hope that someone else will now look at it. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:06, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Huh. I'm pretty sure I ran both copyvios and dupdet at the time of tagging and didn't see that level of close paraphrasing, but I suppose I could be wrong. Anyway, I ran the copyvios report on the current version and edited out the worst of it. There are only so many ways one can say "Los Angeles". § FreeRangeFrog croak 18:30, 4 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Whatever it was, it seems okay now. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:21, 20 August 2014 (UTC)


 * User:CsCMRd/sandbox ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from International Bank of Azerbaijan without satisfying the attribution requirement. Earlier revisions of the page contain completely different content. I don't know whether that earlier content comes from other Wikipedia articles or if they were created by the owner of the userspace. If copied from other Wikipedia pages, then the page must be fixed to satisfy the attribution requirement. --Stefan2 (talk) 22:19, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I have now attributed it to the right places with these two diffs:

It's pretty simple enough to solve. Tutelary (talk) 20:04, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. It is, Tutelary, and I appreciate your templates on the talk pages. :) But the edit summary bit is critical - see Copying within Wikipedia. I've added that and restored the page. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:29, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey Stefan2 which version did you see most suitable? I made changes and then kept getting notices therefore have continuously edited the page. I'm working on restoring appropriate references as everything got disorganized during this process. --Artthings (talk) 16:54, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
