User:OliWhite

 * – (View MfD) &#8203;

Bad copy-paste of, I'm guessing, an older (deleted) version of Oli White which was repeatedly deleted in 2015. This user page was created in 2016, Oli White was recreated in 2020. There are also WP:REALNAME and WP:COI issues with the associated user. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 01:01, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: Do not delete. This userpage is much older and is larger than the first version of Oli White. There is a possible attribution failure, and deletion would hide that failure. Possibly history merge, possibly move to a subpage and redirect, but do not delete.  Note Articles for deletion/Oli White and the page logs.  SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:39, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , if the 2015 revisions of Oli White are restored and the content can actually be attributed to that (which we don't know for sure atm, it could be a copy-paste from a wiki without a compatible free license) I would be okay with this. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 00:57, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Don’t delete without being sure. Deletion destroys the record. In the meantime, there is no crisis. SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:36, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I actually am sure it is a copy-paste of some wiki. Probably English Wikipedia, but unless those revisions are restored we can't know. Either those revisions can be restored and the page attributed, or the content could turn out to originate elsewhere in which case it's copyvio. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 21:09, 12 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep if it later turns out to be a copyvio from elsewhere it can always be tagged for g12. There's a significant probability there is an attribution failure per SmokeyJoe in which case failure to repair that would itself be a copyvio (see WP:RIA). Find an admin experienced in such matters and work with them to determine what if anything needs to undeleted, and how the various versions of the page relate to each other. Also be aware of the possibility of reverse copies of deleted versions of the article appearing elsewhere on the internet. Regards, 31.41.45.190 (talk) 19:10, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
