 * Digia ([ history] · [ last edit] · rewrite) from https://www.kauppalehti.fi/uutiset/digia-jakautumassa-kahdeksi-porssiyhtioksi/8a2c8ed7-d2e5-3454-a98d-7d69e8838ddb. Earwig shows that the Finnish Wikipedia version of this article contains (at minimum) a verbatim 17-word unattributed quote from a non-free source. This content was oviously translated from the Finnish Wikipedia into the English Wikipedia, so the copyright violation carries into this derivative work. There's also no attribution directly given to FiWiki, which is required under the CC-BY-SA license. I'm listing this here rather than using copyvio-revdel because this is translation-vio and the source being copied from is paywalled. Since I can only get the very beginning of it, there may be more, but I'm unable to tell. —  Red-tailed hawk (nest) 13:12, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * The sentence referenced is originally from Digia's 28.8.2015 press-release and was also used word-to-word in Digia's yearly report. . Ie. it was not something that originated from Kauppalehti and it was from a source that was meant to be quoted. Technically this doesn't change the copyright situation at least in Finnish Wikipedia the press releases are considered copyrighted material if there is no license information, but it is not the worst crime in the world either.  -- Zache (talk) 17:31, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for rephrasing the Finnish version. I'm still going to leave this here for a clerk to check through, especially given that verbatim copying from press release material is going to be a problem unless that material is freely licensed. —  Red-tailed hawk (nest) 22:17, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
