As I mentioned in the earlier conversation, there are going to be some issues with showing what a copyright violation looks like. Any ideas how to work around that? Beeblebrox (talk) 04:39, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, you could point out that "Fourscore and seven years ago..." is _not_ a copyvio. :-) --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 05:10, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The other one that is leaving me clueless is log redaction. It is so narrowly defined I'm not sure I've ever seen a case where it would have been acceptable. Perhaps a few negative examples? Beeblebrox (talk) 04:59, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "User:Example is a complete asshole, and I should have done this a long time ago" would be a negative blocklog candidate. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 05:10, 22 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Working around that is easy enough if we use an example with public domain material. As long as people can see the idea, we're good. :) OTOH, do we really need an example for this? It might be a good idea to nail down some parameters, but I think in this case guidelines might be better than examples. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:37, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * ''It was the best of times,
 * ''it was the worst of times,
 * ''it was the age of wisdom,
 * ''it was the age of foolishness,
 * ''it was the epoch of belief,
 * ''it was the epoch of incredulity,
 * ''it was the season of Light,
 * ''it was the season of Darkness,
 * ''it was the spring of hope,
 * it was the winter of despair,


 * Since this is not an actual copyright violation, it cannot serve as an example of copyright violation without further explanation. 89.217.22.3 (talk) 12:59, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I have much the same concern, but.... -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:57, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
