Discussion at Wikipedia talk:Copyright violations on history pages. The discussion has concluded that a copyright violation in the page history of a previously uncopyrighted article does not require the article or the copyrighted version in the history to be deleted. However, the copyrighted version will be selectively deleted from the page history if a complaint is made by the copyright holder.
