I can't actually see the full text of the source but it is indexed in Google Scholar and searching for samples of text indicates the whole article is copied from there.

 * This, like the one above, appears to be resolved (this probably wasn't the right place for them anyway) . But pinging in case there are further concerns. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 21:54, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Justlettersandnumbers: Thanks for pinging me. As I wrote on Rasputina's talk page, "I put the image for deletion today because Mr. Horvitz took the image you uploaded. Mr. Horvitz has his own Commons account and can upload his own photos if desired. "  Whether Rasputina is or is not Horvitz is not the issue.  Mr. Horvitz has his own account and can upload his own photos, he is a living artist and Rasputina is violating his copyright. Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 02:35, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I see what you mean, sort of. So why didn't you nominate them for deletion? I'm totally out of my depth with images, so I'm going to ask to if he has advice to offer here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:22, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * This is the wrong forum. The discussion should be at WP:PUF, not on this page. This page is for textual copyright violations.
 * At User talk:Rasputinfa, User:Tiptoety claims that Rasputinfa is David Horvitz, but no source is given for this claim, so I am not sure if we can use the information in that section.
 * I don't know whether Mr Horvitz has other accounts or not, but I think that it would be a bad idea to re-upload the images using a different account as that would risk losing the original history of the images. If someone else copied the images from Wikipedia 5 years ago, and the original history is lost, then this may result in someone accidentally tagging the new upload as a copyright violation. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:25, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Dropping by to say I've seen this but don't have time to respond in depth - I'll do so later. What I can say is that account is Horvitz and if I recall correctly he identified it as his account on an off-wiki site. I'll find links later. Tiptoety  talk 03:23, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
