Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)

 * The Doreen Valiente Foundation. Dear copyright experts: I have deleted a draft of this article as a copyright violation of http://www.doreenvaliente.com/Doreen-Valiente-About_The_Foundation-3.php#sthash.vQbQJO5w.dpbs . This mainspace version has been made into a redirect.  The material copied from the web site is in the article history, but not showing on the page. It had no references to reliable sources and the article that it redirects too has mainly primary sources.  Should the whole thing be deleted as a copyright violation?  If so, should the redirect be recreated?  &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 02:59, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, User:Anne Delong. :) I think this is an excellent occasion to use revision deletion to clean the copyright out of the history. I'll do that. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:59, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Zanabazar (dinosaur) ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1206/648.1. I found a couple of paragraphs that are almost word-for-word from the source, and numerous examples of close paraphrasing. Sasata (talk) 14:42, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Please note the discussion at User_talk:Joe_Decker. It is quite possible that he is the subject and simply changed the text, or that something changed in the interim, but the Internet Archive bears out my report, finding an 84-word passage duplication.  Now, perhaps the source I found claimed copyright, but copied it from a public domain source, there may very well be a good explanation that allows this text to be used.  But I think it's worth a double-check. --j⚛e deckertalk 19:43, 7 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. He has failed to follow through with OTRS, so the text has been stubbed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:45, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
