 * Township High School District 211 ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from this page. I have never reported any potential copyright violations before, so I am not sure how to proceed here and consequently came here first. According to Earwig's Copyvio Detector, it has a 95.7% confidence rating that parts of the page are copyright violations. The source's footer states, unsurprisingly: "© All content copyright Township High School District 211".It appears that this text was inserted by, whose other contributions may be worth checking, in this October 2009 edit to the article. If so, then this potential copyright violation has been unnoticed and live for . It's been ten years if we consider this April 2007 edit by  inserting some of the material. In April 2012,  tried to remove the text by blanking the section through two edits, providing no edit summaries. Within seconds,  (retired and inactive since March 2013) reverted the edits using Huggle. Both IP addresses are located in Springfield, Illinois. Even the link in the "History" (permanent link) section pointing to the copyrighted page was itself added in October 2015.Moreover, and perhaps most importantly here, it's possible that this is a case of Wikipedia publishing it first, especially since the Internet Archive copies for the older link appear to begin in September 2015 at the earliest. Perhaps a still older link shows older archives, but I have not found any. The text in question was inserted without references and remains unreferenced. The link in question also contains text that was never added to the article, so unless the website expanded on the text it got from Wikipedia, it's possible that only part of the original text was copied to Wikipedia.So, I'm not sure what should be done here. Deleting all affected revisions would amount to suppressing nearly to over a decade of edits comprising most of the page's history. The text could simply be removed, which is what I initially intended to do, but I don't know if that sufficiently complies with our policies and guidelines regarding text-based copyright violations. Anyway, I'm not even sure this  a copyright violation, since we may be the original source. As a final note, the rest of the page seems fine and, as far as I can tell, original text. Thoughts? —Nøkkenbuer (talk • contribs) 15:35, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
