Draft:Adesoji Adesugba ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from https://issuu.com/sojiadesugba/docs/prof__60_mag_spread

I have found three instances of extensive cut-and-paste by, and am concerned that their work dating years may be copyvio. I do not have time to continue looking, but suggest that a copyright investigation may need to be opened to check every edit from this editor.

 * 1) Harlem River (created in 2010, acknowledging text from gsapp.org,, a site which was webarchived in 2011 ).
 * 2) Pineywoods cattle since its creation (much of the article was mirrored later, but some of the article was taken from the same org that later mirrored Wikipedia); not sure what revdel may be needed because of the mix.
 * 3) Electrostatic fluid accelerator was moved from draft space with what looks like it might be cut-and-paste from a journal article, with citations filled in later with other edits.  Access to books and journals needed, but citations from the article infringed at Harlem River, and acknowledged in edit summary, were copied in verbatim as in this instance. (According to responses on Dhollm's talk page, these may be student papers that do not have copyright releases.   Independently, reliability is not established if they are student papers.)
 * 4) Convection https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=379862963 should be checked as well, versus journals, if warranted based on what is found elsewhere.
 * I have deleted the draft and see that User:Epicgenius took care of Harlem River. (Thank you, Epicgenius. :)) I've stubbed Pineywood cattle. I have zero doubt that Electrostatic fluid accelerator was a copy-paste, in part because it includes in its earliest edit the following:"Figure 1 depicts the process of corona ionization: As shown in the figure, two electrodes are required, with air in between them. The electrodes are shaped differently – one electrode (positive, shown in blue) comes to a sharp point. The other (negative) electrode is a large, flat plate (For more information, see [1].)" That is a dead giveaway. With even more article evidence, I've now blanked that one and listed it under today to give editors a chance to respond. I'm about at the extent of what I can do right now physically, but will try to look later. I may not dig into Convection, but instead try running the contribs of the user for less complicated contribution histories to see if there is enough content for a CCI - because his history of copy-pasting certainly warrants it. If somebody finishes this, no worries you will hurt my feelings. :D --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:22, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * (There was a contribution listing here, I moved it to Contributor copyright investigations/Dhollm to get this day off the books at Copyright problems.) MER-C 09:49, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi, does this fall under copyright violation? European Association for Artificial Intelligence, [] ZaaraTE (talk) 15:21, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

 * While reviewing this draft, I found that many parts of the draft appear to be copied from https://issuu.com/sojiadesugba/docs/prof__60_mag_spread. Please see https://tools.wmflabs.org/copyvios/? {{subst:Nothanks-web|pg=Draft:Adesoji Adesugba|url=https://issuu.com/sojiadesugba/docs/prof__60_mag_spread
 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. It does, indeed, ZaaraTE, and I have removed the content. Thank you for flagging that and so sorry for the delay in response. The listing above is a daunting one, and I suppose yours has been postponed for that reason! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:31, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
