 * Vance McAllister ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from Various. Presumptive, see Contributor copyright investigations/20110727 14. About half the article was done by Hathorn, namely the 2013/2014/2015 sections. Since it's a current U.S. rep would recommend against deletion, let's try cleaning what we can.

 * Ikjan ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) I initially tried copy-editing this article but I now realize it was directly copied from one a non-free French source and put through a Google translation. The original source is here, if you run it through Google Translate you'll find it matches the "History" section almost exactly; the only minor differences are due to copy-edits I did here, which don't address the problem. As I noted on the article's talk page, it's unlikely the topic itself would ever meet the criteria for notability. Reporting it here seemed like the easiest next step. Note also that the editor who created the article was banned for various violations, but I've added a notification on their user talk page anyways. R Prazeres (talk) 17:59, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

 * French school of spirituality ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from  and . This is part of Contributor copyright investigations/Manannan51 . The "background" and "St. Francis de Sales" sections are certainly copyvio based off of these sources, but I can't gain access to some of the print sources used for later sections. The lead looks like it's probably fine, so I don't see a reason to presumptively delete, but this is probably going to need a wholesale rewrite if we can't gain access to the print sources given the hit rate on articles written by this user at around that time. —  Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:09, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
