Contributor copyright investigation

This CCI cleanup subpage has been opened because concerns of multiple point infringement have been substantiated and further steps are necessary to address the serious risk of copyright violation from the listed contributor. Listings are not intended to imply a presumption of bad faith on the part of any contributor, as copyright laws vary widely around the world and many contributors who violate Wikipedia's copyrights policy do so inadvertently through not understanding it or the United States' laws that govern it.

If you are here because of a note on an article's talk page explaining removal of text, please do not restore any removed text without first ensuring that the text does not duplicate, closely paraphrase or plagiarize from a previously published source. You are welcome to use sourced facts that may have been removed to create new content in your own words or to incorporate brief quotations of copyrighted material in accordance with the non-free content policy and guideline.

Instructions

[edit]

All contributors with no history of copyright problems are welcome to contribute to clean up.

If contributors have been shown to have a history of extensive copyright violation, it may be assumed without further evidence that all of their major contributions are copyright violations, and they may be removed indiscriminately in accordance with Wikipedia:Copyright violations. However, to avoid collateral damage, efforts should be made when possible to verify infringement before removal.

When every section is completed, please alter the listing for this CCI at Wikipedia:CCI#Open_investigations to include the tag "completed=yes". This will alert a clerk that the listing needs to be archived.

Text

[edit]
  • If you remove text presumptively, place ((subst:CCI|name=Contributor name)) on the article's talk page.
  • If you specifically locate infringement and remove it (or revert to a previous clean version), place ((subst:cclean)) on the article's talk page. The url parameter may be optionally used to indicate source.
  • If there is insufficient creative content on the page for it to survive the removal of the text or it is impossible to extricate from subsequent improvements, replace it with ((subst:copyvio)), linking to the investigation subpage in the url parameter. List the article as instructed at the copyright problems board, but you do not need to notify the contributor. Your note on the CCI investigation page serves that purpose.
  • To tag an article created by the contributor for presumptive deletion, place ((subst:copyvio|url=see talk)) on the article's face and ((subst:CCId|name=Contributor name)) on the article's talk page. List the article as instructed at the copyright problems board, but you do not need to notify the contributor.
  • replace the diffs after the colon on the listing with indication of whether problem was found (add ((y))) or not (add ((n))). If the article is blanked and may be deleted, please indicate as much after the ((y)).
  • Follow with your username and the time to indicate to others that the article has been evaluated and appropriately addressed. This is automatically generated by four tildes (~~~~)

Background

[edit]

Ironboy11 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) Currently indefinitely blocked after I discovered he is still copying content. I did a random spotcheck through his contrib list and found rampant problems, including both text and images. Those I've found are linked below. I believe that this user is operating in good faith - he seems to have carefully documented many (though not all) of the sources he's duplicated - but I'm afraid that we may need to assume that most of the content that is fluent in English is copied. Certainly, he has excellent English, but his own conversation style shows that he has not achieved quite a professional level (see [1]), whereas much of the text he has placed in Wikipedia's articles seems to be flawless. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:41, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
