He's back! On one of his old IP's. He used an edit summary this time, but I disagree. I've put it up for discussion as you know, so unless he makes the effort to get involved.

Hey! Edit summary is progress. :) Why don't you try to invite some other editors to achieve consensus? You might revert (not as vandalism) with a note that you are reverting per WP:BRD pending consensus and a pointer to the talk page (I'd put this in edit summary and at the latest IP talk page) and then ask for feedback at Talk:One Tree Hill (TV series) and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television. Make your question neutral, something like, "Conversation about formatting and inclusion of characters blahblah." :) If he's going to make an effort to talk, we should encourage more of it. If other editors weigh in (knock wood) and clear consensus emerges, he might learn to work within Wikipedia's consensus model. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 18:50, 16 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-16T18:50:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-16T18:50:00.000Z-Jayy008-2010-09-16T18:43:00.000Z","replies":["c-Jayy008-2010-09-16T20:49:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-16T18:50:00.000Z"]}}-->

That's a good plan! By the way, it is vandalism because the format he uses ruins other pages. When you don't use the equals sign in headling characters it prevents direct linking to the page. Like for expample one of the characters of One Tree Hill has had their page redirected, it can't re-direct to the exact character in the current format because the name is only bolded and not equals sign.

If I'm understanding you correctly, that may be wrong, but not necessarily vandalism. Vandalism happens when a contributor is deliberately trying to mess things up. We sometimes have to block people who mess things up accidentally (and won't stop), but that's a different problem. :) --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:51, 16 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-16T20:51:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-16T20:51:00.000Z-Jayy008-2010-09-16T20:49:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Oh, dear. Jayy, this isn't exactly what I had in mind. :) It reads a bit confrontational. Maybe you could change it a bit so it sounds more like, "Hi, thanks for explaining what you're going for!

Thanks, and no worries.

I will say that more tha once I've felt the slight irony that in the cci discussion, I was (at least for a bit) being seen as the "hardliner". (Though in the case of CV, I believe we pretty much have to be cold as ice about it, compared to FU which is pretty subjective at times.)

Yeah, the whole FU thing baffles me. Why can we have pictures of living actors in articles about characters they've played, but not in the articles about the actors? And how is an album cover in an infobox not decorative?

Well, if you ever have an issue, I've found user:J Greb very helpful. He's usually who I go to regarding the various infoboxes and images thereof, when I have questions : )

And speaking of going to other people, jut out of transparency, in case you didn't see it, see user talk:xeno.

Hi I saw you did some work on the copyright project-page regarding text. Is this a copyvio?

• "After the 1970–71 season the Inter Cities Fairs Cup was taken over by UEFA. A match was played between the first ever Fairs Cup winners, FC Barcelona, and the last winners, Leeds United, to decide who would get to keep the old Fairs Cup trophy permanently."

a copyright violation of this:

• "After the 1970-71 season the organisation of the Fairs Cup was taken over by UEFA. The competition was renamed the UEFA Cup with a new trophy being introduced. A match was played between the first ever Fairs Cup winners, FC Barcelona, and the last winners, Leeds United, to decide who would get to keep the old Fairs Cup trophy permanently. These two teams also had the best overall playing record in the competition since it's inception in 1955. "

Hi. Thank you so much for looking into this! I'm extremely sorry to say that we usually presume they are a copyright violation and remove or rewrite them. In this case, it may be valuable to get a better sense of where he has violated copyright. Sometimes we can begin to recognize a pattern in a contributor's work so we can recognize his own language patterns and see where his language differs. If you can point out a specific source that seems to be heavily used in any given article, I might be able to find somebody who can dig it up for comparison and that could help us. If we identify a major problem in one specific text, it makes it more likely that there are major problems in other inaccessible texts. If the content is copyright clear, we may be able to act less aggressively. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:13, 17 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-17T15:13:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-17T15:13:00.000Z-Sodabottle-2010-09-17T13:55:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I was wondering why the Wikipedia article on myself, Michael Korolenko, was deleted. There was nothing false in the article and nothing copyrighted in the article. I myself did not write the original article (it was pretty much taken word for word from my biography in one of my online classes). It has been on Wikipedia for a while and I edited it a year or so ago if I remember correctly to simply update it. I see no reason why it should have been deleted. If you could reinstate the article I would appreciate it.

  • Thank you, Verno. Mr. Korolenko, it wasn't deleted because anything it was false, but because it was copied from your website, which bears a clear copyright reservation notice.

Hi MRG! Could I get you to help me at T:TDYK with this nomination? As I stated in my review of it:

Reading Town Hall appears to be copied in wording, style and tone from the first reference, and not re-written from scratch as required by WP:COPYVIO. Am concerned about putting a potential copyright violation (not saying it necessarily is one, but it's subjective) on the main page.

Hi Moonriddengirl, thanks to clean the Bina Nusantara University article. I'm really appreciate it, but it appears that someone with IP 202.58.180.58 is doing major addition to the article. Could you help again to recheck the article for possible copyright violation? If the additional text is not an infringement, I will proofread and clean-up the Wiki markup in that article. Thanks before.

Thank you very much for bringing that to my attention! :) Some of the content they've added seems okay, but a good bit of it was pasted direclty from the university's facebook account.

I left them because I am uninvolved. :) It's up to you and any other contributors to the article to revert them if they are inappropriate. (Have you gotten any response to your request for input from others? It would be helpful to have other eyes here.) If they are returned while the contributor is blocked, I will revert them as block evasion. If the contributor is not blocked, it's a content dispute unless there's obvious vandalism.

Hi. I see that you were not given the requisite notice. I'm sorry about; the contributor who tagged the article should have copied it to your talk page, and I should have noticed that he or she did not. The problem with the article is that from its inception it followed too closely on [2]. For one brief example, the article as you created it said:

On November 12, 1936 Dr. Karl Compton, president of Massachusetts Institute of Technology spoke at a luncheon lecture at Harvard Medical School. His topic was "What Physics can do for Biology and Medicine". After the presentation, Dr. Hertz asked Dr. Compton "could iodine be made artificially radioactive?"

That website says:

On November 12, 1936 Dr. Karl Compton, president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, spoke at a luncheon lecture. His topic was What Physics can do for Biology and Medicine. After the presentation Dr. Hertz asked Dr. Compton, "Could iodine be made artificially radioactive?"

Other content, too, followed too closely.

While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that our articles do not constitute derivative works (which require permission from the copyright holders), we must write them completely in our own language, except that we may use brief quotations if they are clearly marked and used in accordance with non-free content guidelines. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".

Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.

Please let me know if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 23:32, 18 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-18T23:32:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-18T23:32:00.000Z-Jabrody24-2010-09-18T21:08:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I reverted the edits you referred to in your last comment on my talk page (User:Maharshi Balmiki). It's definitely an old sock who edits articles on the Hungry generation and has created pages on many marginally notable poets related to that movement. Most of his recent edits seem to be copy pasted from somewhere, perhaps a wiki mirror or some old version of the page.

BTW, you might be interested in this, where yet another new incarnation of a banned editor commented on you (and a few other admins) who deleted his own or his favorite NN poet autobiographies. (his last incarnation I assume was Bineeto Pathok (talk · contribs), banned after a large scale vandalism spree). --Ragib (talk) 23:43, 18 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-18T23:43:00.000Z","author":"Ragib","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ragib-2010-09-18T23:43:00.000Z-Comment_on_you_and_Re:_your_comment","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-19T11:41:00.000Z-Ragib-2010-09-18T23:43:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for the update. I didn't know what he was up to exactly, but it raised some red flags. :) As to User:Aqute31 and his note that "I already have seen some users such as Ragib, Moonriddengirl and kubigula...who I believe are trying to establish their own fabrication about Bengali Literature", I just have to laugh. People will see conspiracy theories anywhere. Yes, clearly, I am working very hard to establish my own fabrication about Bengali Literature and sneakily going about it by never writing in that area. :D Is there no point where the logic centers trip over to say, "Hmm. If three people have opposed something I am trying to do, maybe the problem is in what I'm trying to do....."

Your guess about his identity seems spot on. I did indeed delete Hassanal Abdullah as a copyvio, though I had long forgotten.

On the commons I nominated this stamp for deletion because Australian stamps are copyright for 50 years per Public domain stamp templates because I disputed the validity of the attached OTRS ticket. Túrelio declined the nomination and left this comment on my talk page saying that the OTRS permission obviously came from Australia Post but when I questioned him he cannot confirm the ticket as he is not an OTRS volunteer. Would you kindly have a look at it for me as I have never heard of a postal administration giving a free licence for any of its stamps other than press and media use, which is essentially fair-use?

Communication is from the Australian Post, but I'm not entirely sure about the license. In his first letter (not to us; he is speaking with an intermediary), the copyright holder says, "There's no fee for educational use." His correspondent is very good at seeking to clarify that, noting among other points that the content may be reused by "commercial entities", and his correspondent responds (among other things), "All fine." This seems like he's quite comfortable with commercial reuse, but I'd like to write directly to the licensor to ask him to explicitly confirm the terms of release. I'll get back with you on it, and if I should forget (oh, that never happens), please nudge me. :D Seriously, if I write a letter and he doesn't respond, I may well forget to follow up.

At Ticket:2006060910001353, our correspondent released that and several other images for "redistribution under the GFDL or into the public domain - a similar license (such as certain Creative Commons licenses)". In other words, he obviously copied the text from somewhere, and at its most liberal reading, it's not GFDL, but public domain. However, even though there's a ticket number on the image, the e-mail chain says, "solved on-wiki"; there's no indication what that means. :) The agent who tagged it doesn't seem to be active here, on Meta or Commons (where he is an admin) anymore. It's been about a year since he's popped up anywhere, so I can't ask what he meant. And nobody ever wrote the contributor back to thank him or request clarification. Maybe they were talking about it with him somewhere on Wikipedia at the same time? Either way, there's absolutely no doubt that the person who wrote us is Lubna Agha. The e-mail connects to the website. Even if he didn't exactly nail down the terms under which he was releasing it, there's also no doubt he did intend to release it, and GFDL is certainly among the possibities. :D --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:19, 19 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-19T11:19:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-19T11:19:00.000Z-Explicit-2010-09-19T06:15:00.000Z","replies":["c-Explicit-2010-09-19T18:44:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-19T11:19:00.000Z"]}}-->

Dear Moonriddengirl, I am sorry to trouble you. If you do not want me to edit or create new articles in Wikipedia, I will stop doing any edits immediately. Is that what you want. Please give your view, whether I am unfit to write articles in Wikipedia, the so called free encyclopedia.Dr. Rajasekhar A. 07:56, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

I would prefer that you continue contributing but without copying content, otherwise I would have blocked you already. As to your fitness to contribute, I can't opine without understanding why you keep copying content onto Wikipedia from other sources after having been told that this is against our policy and our website's Terms of Use. I explained to you in January 2010 that "you cannot copy text or even closely follow text from another website unless the external website is licensed compatibly". I explained to you in October 2009 that "Text should be written completely in your own words, unless you are briefly quoting material for the reasons and in the way described at the non-free content policy and guideline." You have been blocked in the past, and your contributions are still listed at Contributor Copyright Investigation. Yet here, almost a year later, you are still violating our copyright policy. Why is this? Are you having trouble composing text in your own words? Do you not accept the necessity of doing so? Understanding why may help me better answer your question. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:14, 20 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-20T11:14:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-20T11:14:00.000Z-Kilambi_Ramanujachari","replies":[]}}-->

The reality of the war was not in question. Civil war in Chad (1998–2002) wasn't deleted as a hoax. The article was posted in violation of our copyright policy, I'm afraid, and while it was listed for a full week to allow interested contributors time to rewrite it, nobody chose to do so. It's unfortunate when contributors violate our Terms of Use, but, when they do, we must delete their content; as it says at the bottom of every edit screen, "Content that violates any copyrights will be deleted." Any contributor who would like, though, is welcome to submit a new article on the subject which does meet our Terms of Use. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:25, 20 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-20T20:25:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-20T20:25:00.000Z-B-Machine-2010-09-20T20:19:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I seem to have an issue with another user, specifically User:Pectore. I do not know if i'm going to make any headway in discussion with him, but I don't feel like the situation is (yet) something that should be taken to ANI. So, i'm coming to ask your advice on what I should do to help the situation. Here's what's going on:

A CfD was recently conducted about the Saffron terror category, which only had the Saffron terror article in it. Considering that the category was far too specific, it was decided in the discussion here that the category should instead be renamed to Hindu terrorism. The consensus of the users in the discussion was for rename, all except for User Pectore. Thus, the category was renamed here, which I was the one to go about remaking it. Then, I went and started adding articles to the category that had once been on there. These included 2006 Malegaon blasts, 2007 Samjhauta Express bombings, Mecca Masjid bombing and also Terrorism in India because of the sections relating to the previous articles. I was systematically reverted by User Pectore ([3], [4], [5], and [6]).

I then had a discussion with User Pectore about these reversions on his talk page here. I eventually conceded the point and decided to go look for more specific, obvious, and non-ambiguous examples of Hindu terrorism. What I found was the Bajrang Dal. They appeared to be a militant organization that used fear and other tactics against non-Hindus, the definition of terrorism. So, I added them. I was then reverted and a comment was left on the talk page here.

As can be seen from the comment in parentheses, "(if it serves any purpose at all)", User Pectore appears to be on a drive to remove any articles from the category and to get the category removed altogether once it is empty.

This can be highlighted by the fact that User Pectore has been involving himself heavily in the talk page on Saffron Terror for the past few months, trying to put in information that more and more tries to show Saffron terror and Hindu terrorism to be made up and not real. He and User:Wasifwasif have butted heads about the article for quite some time. I personally believe they are both biased in their own way, as is everyone, with one against and one for the idea of Hindu terrorism. And because it is terrorism, it's clearly going to be a contentious subject.

So...i'm coming to you, you being the most capable and cool-headed administrator that I know of, to ask for advice on what my next step should be to deal with this issue, in terms of the Hindu terrorism category and my attempts to put articles into it, and with User Pectore in general. I will take this to ANI if I have to, but I really don't like having to do that.

Hi. Sorry you're having this frustration. :/ I think if I were in your position, I would start with a discussion at Category talk:Hindu terrorism. I see, actually, that there's one already going. You might possibly request additional feedback at Wikipedia:WikiProject Terrorism and Wikipedia:WikiProject Hinduism. I'd be ever so careful in phrasing that request, as this could be quite a heated discussion! Once consensus emerges, it is easier to see if a conflict is preventing somebody from recognizing and working within that consensus. If so, the WP:NPOVN might be able to help, even though it's not exactly their neighborhood. Otherwise, ANI may be the only choice, but I would want to be sure there is a clear consensus first. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 23:23, 20 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-20T23:23:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-20T23:23:00.000Z-Silver_seren-2010-09-20T22:18:00.000Z","replies":["c-Silver_seren-2010-09-21T00:10:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-20T23:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

Well, as you can see from the talk page of the category, I haven't gotten any response after I put a comment there. And I did already ask for some help from Wikiproject Terrorism yesterday, with no response as of yet. I guess i'll go give Wikiproject Hinduism a try, but...you're right, that will be tricky. I can presume that the people responding will likely be offended at even the thought of terrorism related to their religion, so...eh. I'll give it a whirl. I just don't want to start a fire with this.

Hello,

I am Simon Harris, author of the majority of the text on my own wikipedia page which I have been contributing to for several years under my wikipedia username: megalaser

Today I have checked my page and it has been dramatically shortened, much of the text deleted, most information removed and now it is very short and has inaccuracies as well. I gather this is because a wikipedia editor thought that the page contained copyright violations because the text matched that on my own website: www.harrismix.com

Well, there is no copyright violation - I wrote it all, the website is mine and I am the subject of the wikipedia article.

This wikipedia page is very important to me, I put a lot of work into keeping my public information true and accurate. I understand from the history that it was you who looked at the page, considered it a copyright violation and removed most of the content, this would be a couple of weeks ago?

Please can you undo this edit and return the page to how it was before? I would very much appreciate this. If you would like proof that I am Simon Harris I am happy to provide whatever you need, I am the copyright holder of the text and I hereby state that everything in the article was true and accurate.

I am not an expert on wikipedia and how it works, if you need me to provide any proof please just let me know what I need to do but i would sincerely appreciate it if you could please re-instate my page to how it was before this happened.

My email address is: simon@harrismix.com

I just read about the massive deletion of 10,000 articles due to copyright violations. You have helped me with copyright violations with a number of articles while I edit as an IP. I think that your editing wikipedia is one of the best things about this encyclopedia: volunteers who see the potential for excellence. Thanks for your contributions to making wikipedia useful.

Thank you. That is very kind of you, and I appreciate it. :) Very few of those 10,000 articles will wind up deleted, though, I'm happy to say. Most of them will simply be restored after review as they do not contain copyright problems.

The article Sean Duffy has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable person who does not meet the notability guidelines. Fails WP:POLITICIAN by a country mile.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi. Articles are only semiprotected if there is good reason for them to be semiprotected, such as if they have already experienced considerable vandalism. We don't do it proactively. You may wish to review Wikipedia:Protection policy and then, if you think the article qualifies, to request protection at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection, where an uninvolved administrator will review your request. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:02, 21 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-21T19:02:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-21T19:02:00.000Z-Shrik88music-2010-09-21T18:59:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I'm sorry, but I don't see that. What I see is a "content dispute" where you are adding content and sources with which another contributor disagrees. If you think a source is good and that contributor does not, you might want to ask for feedback from other contributors at the reliable sources noticeboard. But please be careful about referring to the edits of others as "vandalism", as this is not proper under our "Assume Good Faith" and "Civility" policies. Most contributors do mean well by the project, and we should try to resolve our differences collegially. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:09, 21 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-21T19:09:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-21T19:09:00.000Z-Shrik88music-2010-09-21T19:05:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

You think they're reliable; the other user does not. This is why we have dispute resolution. You should calmly ask for feedback from uninvolved contributors at the reliable sources noticeboard (these are not "seniors", but just volunteers who answer these kinds of questions). It will be helpful if you link to the references in question, or at least to the version of the article that uses them.

Yeah I realised you were doing that so skipped ahead of the competition articles to focus on checking a bunch of biographies instead! I didn't realise just how deep into obscurity Darius was delving. One problem with the bot approach is that I very much doubt anyone is watching something like this, such articles will have to be reviewed in a more piecemeal manner rather than in the hope that someone watching or reading the article will address the problem!

Hi,

I noticed that you have restored articles that was under suspicion of copyright infringements. More articles, mass blanked by Uncle G's bot, have shown up on my watchlist. If I find no copyrighted material on those articles, am I right to revert the bot's actions? I tried to read some of the information, but it was so much and intricate, that I gave up! Therefore I hoped you could help me? =) Like in this case, should I simply revert the bot's edit, and insert a Y or a N along with my signature here? If so, does Y mean "OK, no copyright", or does N mean "NO copyright"? At last, could I check articles that haven't been tagged yet? Or will they get tagged sooner or later anyway?

• Hi, and you are heartily welcome to help out. :D {{y}} means "yes, copyright problem was found" and {{n}} means "no, no copyright problem was found." (Generally, we have to presume copyright infringement if the text looks at all creative. I'm afraid this contributor copied all but the most basic content.) The articles that are not yet tagged will eventually be tagged, so it's probably better to start off with the ones that are tagged already.

Wikipedia is a social environment; working with others is part of it, and sometimes those others will not agree with us. Sometimes we will be right, and sometimes they will be, but we have to try to resolve our differences. No administrator has blocked him or warned him that he must not engage in an edit war because nobody has filed a valid complaint at a relevant noticeboard against him proving that he has done anything wrong.

If you aren't getting along with somebody, you have to try first to converse with them politely and then to bring in other contributors in the ways described at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. If somebody refuses to work within the community, then administrators generally block. We do not generally block unless people are clearly working in bad faith.

I really wish you would consider a formal mentorship situation. I believe you would find it valuable to have one person who is in position to help you when you run into these issues. It isn't me, because I've got too much copyright work to do and because I am already mentoring somebody. But I'm sure that someody would be able to give you guidance with the problems you encounter. While I may not have the time to mentor you, I would really rather not see you wind up blocked because you are misunderstanding the way Wikipedia works. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:51, 21 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-21T19:51:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-21T19:51:00.000Z-Shrik88music-2010-09-21T19:45:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

All right. I'll sign on for copyright concerns only. If there are text issues, these may not necessarily need to lead to an indef block. Sometimes contributor create copyright violations from not knowing how extensively they need to rewrite. We cut a little slack there to see if the contributor can learn. His previous text copyright issues were more blatant--just pasting. If you see close paraphrasing problems, please let me know, and I'll try to help you teach him how to avoid those. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 18:08, 22 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-22T18:08:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-22T18:08:00.000Z-RobertMfromLI-2010-09-22T18:06:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

That looks great, Piotrus! Thank you so much! :D The one change I would suggest: given this contributors history, we have to presume that any creative text he has added was copied from somewhere. Basic information, like "Soandso was an athlete who did this" is probably okay, but I have yet to find a full paragraph that this guy added that did not infringe. (Many of his articles don't have full paragraphs. He did a lot of stubs with tables.) If you could ask them to "if in doubt, take it out" or rewrite it, that would be fabulous.

Thought I was going to let a week slip by without bothering you? Nope. Ok - could you possible protect File:Aleksandarstanojevic.jpg as the uploader keeps removing the {{di-no permission}} tag. After they removed the tag the first time and I reverted and replaced the notice on their page (Which they have removed both times) I had a look at all of their uploads and most all of them appear to be possible copyvios and mis-licensed. I have addressed the tag removal issue and the full image issues with a message on their talk page stating I will give them one week to address the rest of their images as well. Anything you can do to re-enforce why permission, either via OTRS or on the source website, is needed would be helpful. Thanks. (EDIT - I am seeing they are going through their uploads and changing license's however they are still not provided proof of permission, example difs: "cc-by-sa-3.0" to "GFDL-self-en" and "FAL" / "PD-self" to "GFDL-self-en") Soundvisions1 (talk) 15:16, 23 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-23T15:16:00.000Z","author":"Soundvisions1","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Soundvisions1-2010-09-23T15:16:00.000Z-Need_an_admins_help","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-23T16:57:00.000Z-Soundvisions1-2010-09-23T15:16:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi. :) Rather that protect, I've watchlisted it. I'll take action is action is needed. I have tagged most of this person's other uploads. I know you said you'd do so after a week, but his changing the tags to claim he is the copyright owner makes me feel that we need to move forward on this one.

Please provide some guidance. I believe I recognize File:Arecibo naic big.gif because of its similarity to a photo that has been hanging in my office (without a copyright notice). The photo was taken in order to document the 1974 upgrade of the telescope to an aluminum dish. I can tell by the antenna that the photo certainly predates 1998 (the date claimed by the uploader). The person uploading the photo claimed it was the work of NASA because he found it on a NASA website. I then put a {{puf}} tag on the photo page and on the Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2010 September 17 page. However, a robot correctly noted the image in on Commons and not on Wikipedia.

The uploader claims that this is a NASA image. However it comes from APOD which in turn states, "Specific rights apply." The subpage states, "All the images on the APOD page are credited to the owner or institution where they originated. Some of the images are copyrighted and to use these pictures publicly or commercially one must write to the owners for permission. For the copyrighted images, the copyright owner is identified in the APOD credit line (please see the caption under the image), along with a hyperlink to the owner's location." In this case, Cornell University. The NAIC website gallary says, "Note to the media.... You are welcome to download these images for non-profit / non-commercial use. For permissions and credit policies see our "media services and support" page. Please credit all photos with: "courtesy of the NAIC - Arecibo Observatory, a facility of the NSF"

I could not find a puf page on Commons, so I changed the attribution to {{PD-US-no notice}} even though I cannot prove that this is the 1974 photo. Could you please resolve this or forward it to someone who can resolve it. The photo is currently available under a "no commercial use" license.

    • Well it certainly seems that you should be. Commons doesn't take images with such licences, and you are certainly making a case that it has that licence. So deletion from Commons is one step to be taken, here. A normal, non-speedy, deletion nomination is where to put that case, and have it discussed by multiple people. It's not as if Commons is a stranger to this issue. It's come up many times over the years. They do have some familiarity with addressing it, You simply need to go there and start the ball rolling.

      • Hi all. As Uncle G suggests, the correct procedure here is to nominate the image for deletion on Commons. Even if you don't personally believe it's non-free, if we're uncertain of its status then it's generally our policy to delete. You may request that it be transferred to En wiki for use under the Non-free content policy, but then you would bear the burden of adding a non-free content rationale, since it's unlikely the original uploader is around to do so. If you want to do this, please just request it in your deletion request.

          • Hmm. The people at WP:MCQ might be able to help clarify that before any drastic steps are necessary.

          • If you're uncertain I'd suggest just nominating it anyway and expressing your doubts in the nomination. An alternative is to ask at commons:Commons talk:Licensing.

At the AfD for the above page and on the articles talk page Unflavoured has raised concerns of CopyVio with http://www.answering-ansar.org. I am not so sure, however since a possiable outcome of the AfD is merge, would you mind having a look and see what you think.

Then I believe that either (a) the problematic material should be removed, or (b) the article should be blanked with the {{copyvio}} and note made at the article's talk page to give the contributors an opportunity to demonstrate that the content is PD in spite of the copyright label or to rewrite it. Typically, we don't blank articles at AfD, but I do it with copyvios all the time. Reviewers can still see the content in history. The danger to just removing the content is that some of the sources are not English. We don't know if those sources have been directly translated or properly rewritten. :/ This is a real concern as this contributor has violated our copyright policies in the past, with articles Alimaan Charitable Trust and September 2010 Baghdad Bombings (now deleted).

Hi,

I recently uploaded. File:MANI RATNAM.jpg, File:Jayakandhan-padma bhushan.jpg, File:Ar-rahman-accepts-the-oscars.jpg, File:Ilaiyaraaja-PadmaBhushan.jpg, File:Illayaraaja-synthesizing-music model.jpg, File:Ilayaraja-in-early-days.jpg, File:MGR-at-Pulic-Meeting.jpg, File:Kamal-in-salangai oli.jpg, File:Sivaji-with-Marlon Brando.jpg, and File:Rajni-with-Kalignar.JPG -----these files..

As a true wiki user I am bold and confident that you will accept me here. You said me on my talk page. "I believe that they are unusable for other reasons". Look there is a bottle filled with half water. I am seeing the remaining to be filled on upper part. You are seeing that it already is half filled in the lower part. So the matter - one but views - two.

since you accepted saying "There is no doubt that these are fine images that would add substantially to the presentation of the articles in which they are included". You should be knowing in what regard it is added there. Merely to improve the article and illustrate it.

If keep on looking that everything is added based on decorativeness, sorry that we will not be making a good article. I am making my more hardest time in explaining to you now. Please dont mistake me. As we all here to improve the articles.

If I really made a mistake I am ready to accept it. But certainly on most cases I used all fair use images to support the articles with all possible proof I can provide and I did that. I respect all wiki rules.

Lastly please consider each image on its own terms and conditions and do not delete it all as a pack of cards. And give me appropriate images that has still copyrighted violations, so that In future I will be careful and be alert before adding it in wiki.

I beleive this is a very serious issue. Please consider every article and its image seperately and analyse whether it is really supporting the article or not and then delete it, if at all needed so.

Many thanks,

I got a question on my talk page about the permission used to create Ansley J. Coale.

Hi. I'd be way more comfortable with that if it were explicit. :/ Generally, I like to see a license named. If a license is not named, I prefer very clear terms, to include specific reference to commercial reuse. That one is close enough that I'd stare at it uneasily going, "Maaaybe..." and then write to them to ask them if they are willing to put a label on it. I've got to run for now, so it may be a few hours before I'm back to discuss this further.

If you are willing to write to them for clarification (and let me know the ticket number so I can learn from your example for next time) that would be great.

Hi Moonriddengirl

How are you doing? Thanks for the advice concerning our article "Bujutsu Kodosokukai" [9]. We have worked with all your highly valuable inputs during the summer. So far our conclusion is to split up the article into three separate articles in order to maintain focus and then link to the other articles where appropriate. The three articles are ready as drafts but our approach would be to get them "approved" one by one at the COIN. We would appreciate your help once more and ask you for a review of the articles before they are send to COIN and also your thoughts about our new approach.

Well, that was incredibly unconstructive. I've reverted with a strong note. During one stretch, he got up to every 10 seconds.

The problem there is in the words "most of", I'm afraid. :/ The point of the blanking to begin with was to make sure that a standard of care was applied in investigating them, and that's not been accomplished when a contribitor seems willy-nilly to have restored over 500 articles (maybe around 750? I didn't count :)), including at least six with infringements. There are very likely more; I didn't look to see what he failed to clear. Those just jumped out at me as I was rolling him back.

Fair use boundaries are well beyond my depth of knowledge. I think the poet's talk page has most if not all of them listed. Cheers.

Hi. :) I think it's very likely that File:Arius portrait image for article.jpg is public domain. I've converted the tag and listed it at PuF. I agree with the tagging of File:Push-button phone1948.jpg. "cannot find this specific image anywhere else and it is a necessary and well-appreciated image of this very early push-button phone" is not a valid rationale, since anybody with a camera and access to the model could create a free image. It is replaceable. I suspect that File:Luther g presley.jpg will not be deleted under that tag. While non-free images of living people are widely frowned upon (except in certain situations, such as to illustrate characters they have played--see Edward Cullen, for instance--non-free images of dead people are sometimes allowed. I stay out of that realm, because I've seen it go both ways at IfD, and I have no idea why they are sometimes accepted and sometimes not. The reviewing admin will presumably be more in touch with the will of the community on those than I and will either decline or delete based on current zeitgeist. :) --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:00, 26 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-26T13:00:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T13:00:00.000Z-Toddst1-2010-09-26T05:54:00.000Z","replies":["c-Toddst1-2010-09-26T14:57:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T13:00:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi. I'm afraid we can't use them with that statement. :/ He specifically forbids modification: "Our contents are free. It doesn't mean you can abuse them, modify them, or steal them and claim as your own." Even without that statement, I suspect that his release would not be specific enough, though. If you see images that you like and have a chance, you might contact him to ask him if he would be willing to release the content specifically under CC-By-SA, which does permit modification and liberal reuse, including commercially, so long as the author is attributed and nobody tries to restrict further reuse. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:13, 26 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-26T12:13:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T12:13:00.000Z-Linguisticgeek-2010-09-26T06:48:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Okay, I've addressed the user. Now to the content: we are actually in the process of refining the copyright policy to take into account "revision deletion". Generally, I do purge copyvios from history if they are extensive or likely to be resurrected. I would be inclined not to purge that one immediately, unless it comes back, because I think it's unlikely that it will come back accidentally. I'll watchlist the article for a few days and see if it keeps out. If it doesn't not, I'll purge it. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:39, 23 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-23T11:39:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-23T11:39:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-23T11:32:00.000Z","replies":["c-Hrcolyer-2010-09-27T10:31:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-23T11:39:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi Moonriddengirl, Nuclearwarfare had suggested to yeasimhuman (the author of the original article on Ken Zaretzky) that we contact you for advice. The original article was deleted in early august (notability was the issue) after discussing it with Nuclearwarfare it was suggested (on nuclearwarfares talk page) that it actually looked like Ken Zaretzky actually did meet the notability guidlines and suggested that yesimhiman appeal the decision. The administrators upheld the decision because the procedure had been followed correctly but suggested that another article on Ken Zaretzky showcasing the proof of his notability could (should?) be written. Yesimhuman asked me to write the article because he didn't feel confident with his ability as a writer. I have done so in my userspace (yesimhuman did help me with some facts and details). Could you please look the article over and give me your opinion and any suggestions you have on it before I try to post it as a regular article? I would appreceate the assistance very much. Oh, Please not that the catagories at the bottom are not formatted correctly. i did that on purpose so that it wouldn't show up in any catagories until it was ready for prime time :).

Hi. I've made some changes to it and made notes as I went, so you can see in the history what I did and why. Some of the sources used were not useful as sources, I'm afraid. For instance, linking to his paper does not verify that he based his talk on the paper; linking to <http://www.coachfederation.org/> does not verify his credentials. (I searched their website for his name to see if I could find a source, but I didn't.) Some of the Public speaking subsection appears to constitute "original research". Who says he is known as the "Couples Guy"? When I do a Google search of that, I only come up with one match. (Specifically, a Wikipedia mirror.) Where can we read that he was featured numerous times on Ann Babiarz's radio show or that "he based these talks on his paper, “Coaching Couples with ADHD,” presented at CHADD in 2004"? Generally, there's more referencing to be done. I've tagged the entire section on public speaking as much of this lacks reliable sourcing; elsewhere, I've tagged specific claims that need reliable sourcing, including the category that says he is from Wheeling. :)

Please let me know if you have any questions about any of this. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:02, 24 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-24T12:02:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-24T12:02:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-24T10:50:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Thank you so much for your help! a few questions. Do I have to get someone to scan his drivers license to prove he lives in Wheeling? His address is on his website, could that be an adequate

citation? or should i just delete Wheeling? The speaking citations, most are links to websites of some organizations that announce that he is speaking there. Is there something else I could (or should use) use? I suppose I could change the words "couples guy" to "he is a pioneer in coaching couples with ADHD based on the magasine articles, his paper and that he has spoken on it a number of times. Would that work? His MCC credential? That is refered to everywhere. do I need to try to get a scan of his MCC certificate? Last, The public domain issue, the bottom of both of those programs say they can be used or copied freely as long as the notice remains on them and the name isn't changed. Is that not enough or is there another way to demonstrate that? You have been a lot of help. Sorry about all the Questions. Thanks again!

You are welcome to ask questions, and I'm happy if I can help. If it's on his website, you can his residence and his MCC credentials to that. You just can't use self-published sources to verify extraordinary claims or to confirm his notability. Who says he is a pioneer? We would need a citation for something like that. (Even if it's true! Verification isn't about disbelieving you; it's because we are a tertiary source--that is, we exist to summarize material previously published in reliable, independent sources) Alternatively, you can say, "He coaches couples..."

If he requires the notice to remain and the name to remain unchanged, the programs aren't public domain. :) Public domain carries no restrictions whatsoever. (For example, somebody could take it apart and build on it to create their own program.) Evidently he is still claiming copyright, but merely liberally licensing them for reuse. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:56, 24 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-24T13:56:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-24T13:56:00.000Z-Youngshakespeara-2010-09-24T13:50:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Okay, he has been referred to as a pioneer on some other people's and organizations websites. Can I site them? re: the public domain. Should I say he allows them to be used freely by the public with minimal restrictions"?

Used freely with minimal restrictions should work. As to his being a pioneer, you can use it if those organizations are not (a) connected to him or (b) promoting him for their own causes. For example, if he is speaking for them, then they are presumed to have reason to want to generate interest in him. To meet our neutrality policy, we want to be sure that anything that could be perceived as "promotional" is legitimately sourced to people who have no reason to care. :) If independent sources don't say it, it's best to avoid that kind of thing altogether and just flatly state verifiable facts. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 14:23, 24 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-24T14:23:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-24T14:23:00.000Z-Youngshakespeara-2010-09-24T14:20:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Well, that wouldn't be controversial. If he has it on his official website, you can include it. But if he doesn't, it may be best just to leave it out. We frequently omit the birthdates of living people when these are not widely publicized anyway, unless the subject has themselves published that information somewhere. This we do in courtesy to them to help reduce identity theft. (See WP:DOB.)

I've done some cleanup on references (just bringing them more in line with our manual of style), but ran out of time midway through. I have another job to take care of. :) You might want to do a bit more of that. For web material, we use {{Cite web}}. (Follow that link for full details on the template.) You don't have to copy over every parameter--just the important ones. The section about his public speaking still needs additional references. My own philosophy in creating articles is to nail everything down that I can to a reliable source to prevent its being challenged or removed. I personally take a "stitch in time saves nine" philosophy here, so I would strongly suggest getting that in line before moving the article into article space. I believe that Zaretzky probably is notable, but the more reliable independent sources you have to verify that, the better. When an article has already been deleted once via AfD debate, a second debate that results in deletion will make it extremely difficult to establish an article in the future. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 17:46, 24 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-24T17:46:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-24T17:46:00.000Z-Youngshakespeara-2010-09-24T16:21:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, I've been working on making more of those citations conform. I think I'll have them all done today. I am still trying to reach Ann Babiarz to find out where her show archives are on the web (I know she has them) but I haven't gotten a reply from her yet. I think I'll just change his birthday to the year. I'm sure that's verifiable somewhere. Also two Questions: (1) I saw that you made the same reference be listed twice in the article (in two different places). How did you do that? (2) What are citations do you think would be needed or useful in the "Public Speaking" section or do you think there are enough now? Thanks again for all your help. I appreceate it so much!

I can't guarantee that I can help you get it into a state that it won't be deleted. I can't guarantee that about my own articles. :) But I hope I can help. :)

(1) To get a reference to list twice, give it a name. For example, <ref name=NYT>. The first time you use it, fill it out completely, and close it when you're done with </ref>. The second time you use it, all you have to do is type <ref name=NYT/>. The software will do the rest. I usually try to come up with a refname that will make sense to me later, either referring to the place of publication or the last name of the author.

(2) You should source as much as you can. The first thing that jumps out to me: "He was also a guest on CoachTV (Manhattan) in 2007." The earlier speaking engagements--do you have references to verify the topic of those conversations on those dates? If not, you might want to change the sentence so that you can use some of the prior references, which did not mention the subject.

Thank you again!! I actually just found out that it is called Coach World TV and I am putting in a citation to thier website.

I know he's spoken a lot on how it's done 101 and I know a lot of the cities. But when I researched them on the web i found that those organizations didn't keep a record of old events in thier archives (Like San Francisco Coaches, East Bay Coaches, ICF Madison Area Chapter and Chicago coach federation. How can I use them if there is no record on thier websites?

You can use print sources, if you have them. If there are none, I'm afraid you can't use it per our core policy against original research. This is one of the reasons why we request that people not work on articles about subjects they know. They can be tempted to include unverifiable information, and this is not appropriate even if it's true. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 21:31, 26 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-26T21:31:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T21:31:00.000Z-Youngshakespeara-2010-09-26T21:25:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I'll try to find more on the web then (there must be more somewhere).

Oh, I understand the policy about articles on subjects they know. It makes total sense. I actually have never met him. I do know a couple of people who know him but I'm sure I can be objective. Thanks for the heads up though.

It's a shame there isn't a repository somewhere for deleted and expired web pages. Because it appears that there are a lot of speaking engagements that he has done in the past that have been deleted or removed or whatever because they are old.

If I can get the Ann Babiarz stuff (If she ever replies to my e-mail) and can find proof of a couple more older speaking engagements do you think this article might me ready?

Oh, also, do you think I should get a picture of him (maybe one from his website) to put in the info box? I feel like I may be starting to get the hang of doing this, :)! Thank you again!

Hi, I came upon this article after CSD-tagging a recently created article from the same user as a copyvio. However, this one dates back to 2006. Consequently, even though the exact content is on other websites, I am not sure which have copied from Wikipedia. For example, it is on servinghistory.com, but examination of that site shows that it copies from Wikipedia[10]. I'm not sure what to do in such cases, so I'm appreciate advice. (I'll check back here for replies).

My special secret trick: I look at the first edit to the article that introduces textual change. Then I search the web for the earlier version of the text. Cuts out a ton of Wiki mirrors!

Okay, the first substantial change took place on the day of creation, here. This looks good for our article. :) Anything we find that includes the later language ("In fact, CNN had started a second network, CNN2, on 1 January 1982 which had a similar format, as a preemptive strike against the ABC/Group W venture.") is going to be a copy of us, rather than the other way around. The next substantial change was here, and the only match I get for the earlier text is this known Wiki mirror. That doesn't mean that the content wasn't copied from somewhere, but if I encountered this one, I'd probably presume it was clean unless we got additional evidence. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:24, 26 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-26T20:24:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T20:24:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T20:20:00.000Z","replies":["c-Chzz-2010-09-27T02:46:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T20:24:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yes, I've done that sort of thing. The problem I've experienced is, it is often very hard to tell the date of the copies on other websites. Some are dated, but many are not. But I suppose that's just one of those things. Makes it often impossible to tell who copied whom.  Chzz  ►  02:46, 27 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-27T02:46:00.000Z","author":"Chzz","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Chzz-2010-09-27T02:46:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T20:24:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Whilst probably not as bad as the one above I think that someone may need to have a word with User:Mohsen1248 regarding mass reverts of the DD CCI blankings. They have several periods of reverting the bot changes within the space of a few minutes. Unfortunately I cannot find any definite copyvios that they have restored though Kazakhstan women's national volleyball team is rather suspicious (that text is rather old so the number of mirrors is large).

We've already clashed on this issue. I do not understand on what grounds you are deleting content like this edit. It is all sports statistics, in this case, released to the world in 1984 by the International Olympic Committee, through their local organizing body the LAOOC. This is now public record information that was spread throughout the world over 25 years ago. Wikipedia, one of the dominant websites for information in the world, has had this public information copied to it, probably from some other site that obtained the information from its original source. If the original source does not enforce protecting this information, how can a subsequent source claim copyright. Obviously they don't, nobody has brought suit. This is your own individual policy. I have no fanatical interest in this this particular article. My concern is for thousands of articles just like it that you and Uncle G's robot are blanking and re-enforcing with edits like this, that are now not visible to the world through your actions. Don't just send me away to generic policy statements as you have done in the past. Don't get sidetracked from two edits out of thousands I have made here. This is about YOUR actions.

I am rolling back a contributor who reverted the blanking without due examination, as explained at the individual's talk page. He indicates there that his removal of the templates was based on a misunderstanding of the bot's actions. This may be why he re-exposed several copyright violations.

• I'll start with the first question and then go look at your mess. :) In ordinary copyright cleanup - where we don't know that we're dealing with an infringer - we'd tag the talk page of something like that {{Cv-unsure}}. However, when we know the history of a contributor makes copying likely, we instead follow the policy of presumptive removal or rewriting at Wikipedia:Copyright violations. We can either stub it or blank it with the {{copyvio}} to invite other contributors to write a new article. If you do the latter, place {{subst:copyvio|url=see talk}} on the article's face and {{subst:CCId|name=Darius Dhlomo}} on the article's talk page. Then list the article as instructed at the copyright problems board (but don't bother notifying Darius; he knows what is going on, so the notice is both unnecessary and probably a bit unkind.)

There's a couple of ways you could go about it. The self-help way: [13], reverse image search. I ran it through, and it takes me to this page, which identifies it as Luca Signorelli, L’Immaculée de la promesse et des prophéties, 1521-1523, huile sur bois, 217 cm x 210 cm, Museo Diocesano, Cortone (Italie). And says they got it from us. :) Sure enough, we already have it on Commons as File:Luca signorelli, immacolata concezione, cortona.jpg.

Hi. The primary reason that the article Trevor Wayne was deleted was that it violated our copyright policy. It was duplicated from this press release. I'm afraid that the contributor who placed it here did not respond within time to warning about this, here. As a note, it seems that she is a paid editor. This is problematic under our conflict of interest guidelines.

You may still be able to grant permission for this text, but I'm afraid that beyond the copyright concerns it is otherwise inappropriate for Wikipedia. Content such as "Trevor Wayne has inspired the minds of directors, photographers, and painters alike. Not your traditional actor/model/artist, Wayne is a walking piece of art. " is fully appropriate for a subject promoting him or herself (the natural object of press releases), but is not appropriate for Wikipedia articles, which are supposed to be fact-based, neutral and backed by independent reliable sources. If permission is supplied for the text (see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the process), it will be tagged for review for such concerns and probably greatly changed. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:29, 28 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-28T12:29:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-28T12:29:00.000Z-68.124.58.225-2010-09-28T01:10:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi,

I recently gave some informal advice via OTRS for a query with regard to re-use of a image tagged as PD as it was a photograph of a painting where the artist died in 1869. My advice was slightly cagey in that:

• They wanted to use it on a book cover, probably to be published in India, where local copyright law is rather opaque to me...
• The current location of the original painting is unknown and so it is not possible to easily verify the PD claim or confirm current ownership.
• The website the image came from is no longer available.

Consequently my advice was the the image would be considered PD in any country as de facto there is little chance of anyone having success coming forward to claim copyright more than 120 years after the death of the artist. I then advised them to consult their publisher to confirm the appropriateness of the use of such an image for their publications. I now feel my advice was a bit weak, is there a boiler-plate somewhere that unequivocally explains international re-use in these situations?

Hi. I've taken a look at it, and the first problem that I saw was that I'm afraid the article has used far too much copyrighted content. We are only allowed to use brief excerpts of previously published text, and we have to use these for good reason (see our non-free content policy and guideline). I've shortened the quotes to what seemed really essential to helping to establish his notability.

The article has not yet been deleted, but still exists for now at Imran Channa visual artist. It is nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Imran Channa visual artist. Your absolute best bet to keep it from getting deleted is to find good reliable sources to verify that your subject meets our notability guidelines.

Hi there, thank you for your message, and thanks for all the obvious hard work you do around here (going out of your way to hook up adopters and adoptees is beyond the call of duty IMO). I'd be happy to help Shrik88music, and backstop the other user who has agreed to give him a hand. I'm not familiar with Indian topics or Indian sources really, but I can certainly help guide Shrik88music in the right direction as far as it regards being a good Wikipedian who contributes good content. — e. ripley\^talk 17:34, 28 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-28T17:34:00.000Z","author":"E.

I've been maintaining the Tanarus (Video Game) wiki for the past year now, mostly as an unregistered user. Lately I decided to register though, because I wanted to send/receive messages on a certain issue.

On the Tanarus (video game) wiki page, I noticed that my edits keep getting removed. They are all factual, and meant to do nothing but inform. Recently the game has gone under and alot of players have felt some animosity toward the owning company, SOE. This is a well known fact, and I stated this in the wiki as gently as possible. I even made a custom GIF just for this wiki page, yet both my edits and gif keep getting removed, so I have a few questions:

- Is this a moderator doing this?

- If so, am I doing something wrong? I haven't been notified of breaking any rules. Perhaps I've missed any kind of messages sent to me somehow? I still am not exactly sure how a moderator would notify me of any wrongdoing.

- If this isn't a moderator, is there any way to prevent the individual from removing my edits? After all, they are removing factually correct information...

- If there is a problem with my edits for some reason, please let me know what it is. It seems the other edits I have made stay on the page, but this one (particularly with the gif) keeps getting removed.

Up until now I've just been re-updating the page every now and then when I see my edit has been removed again. If I'm doing something wrong, let me know and I'll stop. The only reason I'm even messaging you is because I saw you on the page's history. I'm not sure why I'm not receiving any messages, so could you please send a reply to my email instead?

Your edits had been removed because they were, in essence, a specific negative point of view not verified through independent, reliable coverage combined with an image that is both completely unsuitable for an encyclopedic article as well as an unauthorized derivative work of material copyrighted to a third party.

While I can understand that feelings may run high with fans of the game, Wikipedia aims to be an encyclopedia, not a platform where disappointed users can air their grievances.

I have cleaned up the article to bring it in line with our policies. If you wish to contribute to Wikipedia further, I would like to recommend that you start with reading this page which summarizes what kind of qualities we are looking for in our articles.

If you need any help, you can create a new section on your talk page and add {{helpme}} followed by your request below it, someone will be along shortly to assist you.

If you disagree with their modifications, you do have recourse to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. However, it would be good to read over the links MLauba has given you first, as I believe that some of the content you have added may not have been appropriate for Wikipedia, though I'm sure they'd be find for a more specialized wiki. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:21, 30 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-30T12:21:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-30T12:21:00.000Z-MLauba-2010-09-30T08:37:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I ran into this article a while back and noticed that a large chunk of it was taken from a copyrighted website. I removed the copyrighted material and left the article for a few months. When I came back, I found that a lot of the text on the article is identical to that of a well known fan site called dethklok.org. I'm not completely sure what to do at this point. Every few days, new material is added that matches that of dethklok.org and it's not completely clear which came first. In my opinion, I'd rather just wipe all the descriptions in question and have editors rewrite them but there's been some resistance to my removal of material that I feel is copyrighted. You're my copyvio guru so I thought you might have a good idea as to what to do. Any advice or help you can supply would be greatly appreciated.

TV episodes. :/ Not exactly the bane of my existence, but a real pain in the neck from a copyright cleanup standpoint! It can be very hard to tell when reverse infringement happens. In this case, we have an archived version of that page that dates to July 1,2008. That doesn't mean that's when it was created (it could have been created as many as several months before), but it does mean that any text we have in our article that replicates that source that was entered after July 1, 2008 copied from them. Looking at our version of the article from July 1, 2008, here, I do see duplication: "Following the attempt on their lives in the season one finale, Dethklok has withdrawn from the public eye. With the world reacting in chaos as a result, they plan a concert during which they will execute several death row inmates", for instance. It looks to me like we had that first. Look at this version. You can see some of the content is already on Wikipedia, but not all. That means it probably evolved naturally.

It seems likely that the early stuff started with us, and they may still be copying from us. We may also sometimes copy from them. What I would recommend at this point is to ask contributors to just keep an eye on new substantial plot summaries as they are added. That way, we'll know who had it first, and if somebody comes back later to claim we've copied from them, we'll be better able to defend our content. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:22, 30 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-30T11:22:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-30T11:22:00.000Z-OlYeller21-2010-09-30T04:00:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Dear Moonriddengirl: I am writing to you about two problems with this article which you so kindly editted and linked to and achived web site. Firstly it appears that the old dead links are back. It appears that some robot reverted your changes. How can we make edits that won't be reverted?

Second the new links that you inserted [15] no longer work. This could be just a server problem. I am re-directed to a page that says that the server connection has failed.

Since some of the content was copied from one site, it was not possible to be sure that the contributor had not copied other content from other sites. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:38, 30 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-30T19:38:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-30T19:38:00.000Z-Deletion","replies":[]}}-->

Dear Moonriddengirl, Why did u delete my contribution in the article of sindhis notable personalities, you argued that "no source" but most of the personalities which i listed are even in wikipedia, why you people delete the contribution without any research. is this the criteria if u a an admin or old user o wiki that u can delete any thing as u want... thanx —Preceding unsigned comment added by Artmartxxx (talk • contribs) 19:46, 26 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-26T19:46:00.000Z","author":"Artmartxxx","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Artmartxxx-2010-09-26T19:46:00.000Z-Deletion","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-26T20:16:00.000Z-Artmartxxx-2010-09-26T19:46:00.000Z"]}}-->

It was removed because it completely lacked sources and the individuals were not wikilinked, offering no way for other contributors to know if they are notable or even Sindhis. See here. I see that you are trying again with the information, though your edit summary is misleading and may led to some confusion in people considering accepting your changes. They're more likely to accept your edit if you indicate that you have added the missing content than if you suggest that you are reverting somebody else. (In this case, it won't matter; I've accepted your edit this time, but removed those names which are not sourced or linked.)

Any user of Wikipedia may challenge material that is not properly sourced, and this particular article is under special restrictions.

Hey now, MLaura I appreciate the explanation here for the Tanarus (Video Game) wiki, but did you REALLY have to blank the entire thing? That is entirely unacceptable! Why would you remove all of that information? Granted that I did not realize that Wikipedia would go so out of its way to prevent even an inkling of expressed distaste (which would include my latest edit, I suppose) but the rest of what you deleted is practically 13 years of history for us gamers! That information was not just 'given'. It was found by playing over time. There is no place that information (stats/ranks/values) was written down ANYWHERE but here on Wikipedia. Deleting it is... well you made my jaw drop.

Now... Can you tell me if there is a way I can create my own Wikipage that will go unaffected and express its own views (without breaking rules)? Other than that, I'm not a moderator, but I am going to restore the page to its original state (without my edit). Could you PLEASE consider how important it is to us? I have a forum of over 200 people that play the game that refer to it at least a few times a month. I know this if this was a battle of wits, you would win hands down. I am just asking you to understand our point of view here.

Wikipedia is not a free webhost, I'm afraid. Even if the content exists nowhere else but here, it will be removed from here if it is inappropriate for our project. Our project has its own goals--to neutrally document what reliable, published sources have said about notable subjects--and all contributors to this project must be working towards those goals. If these goals conflict with yours, I'm afraid you have a conflict of interest. If you want a Wikipage that will go unaffected and express its own views, you may wish to consider creating your own at Wikia (see [17]). (Wikipedia is not affiliated with Wikia.)

Concur with the above. You will also want to consider that persisting in restoring inappropriate content after having been informed of its nature is considered disruptive and will eventually lead either to a locking of the article or a removal of your editing privileges. Please start a discussion of any future changes on the article's talk page.

Hi Moonriddengirl,

I have made a proposal to merge Blessed Virgin Mary (Roman Catholic) with Mary (mother of Jesus). One of the editors has split the discussion over both talk pages. The noticed was posted on both articles and talk pages, but the discussion was primarily on this article talk page. [19] but was then changed to this page where 'voting' was begun. [20] Which talk page is most appropriate for the discussion? It seems that this could be confusing for other editors to have it split like this and it might be more convenient for other editors if the discussion remained on Blessed Virgin Mary (Roman Catholic) so the editors could easily access the page that is the primary focus. Is there a policy for this?Malke 2010 (talk) 14:22, 30 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-30T14:22:00.000Z","author":"Malke 2010","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Malke_2010-2010-09-30T14:22:00.000Z-Question_2","replies":["c-Malke_2010-2010-09-30T14:25:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-09-30T14:22:00.000Z"]}}-->

Just to clarify, the discussions are not combined. There are two separate discussions.

I'm a little confused. :) It looks like you opened both sections. Did somebody move your comment from one page to another, or did you just expect that people would follow the "Discuss" link from the tag to the appropriate page? If the latter, I'm afraid that many will simply look at the talk and see conversation and pitch in there. I have when leaving courtesy notices on specifically asked people to comment on another page, only to have them comment on that one.

In this case, I think you should probably be guided by the principle of least confusion. That is, if most of the conversation is at one page, keep it there. Put a notice on the other page, in the appropriate section, noting that the conversation has been inadvertently divided and requesting that the participants at the lesser-used thread carry their conversation over to the main page. I'd consider asking each participant if they would object to your archiving (using {{closed}} or similar the least used thread and redirecting new comments to the other page in hopes of avoiding ongoing fragmentation of the discussion. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:34, 30 September 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-09-30T15:34:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-30T15:34:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-09-30T14:25:00.000Z","replies":["c-Malke_2010-2010-09-30T16:11:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-09-30T15:34:00.000Z"]}}-->

It is confusing. And no, I didn't start two discussions. I put a notice on the Mary (mother of Jesus) page so that others who edit there would be aware and go to the BVM RC talk page. Marauder responded on the BVM RC page, then without notice, moved his "vote" to the MMoJ talk page. I had no idea that History2007 and Marauder had started a vote over on MMoJ. Marauder was continually posting to Blessed Virgin Mary (Roman Catholic).

I think others may not have understood that to be your intent. It doesn't point to the actual conversation; it rather looks like a discussion launcher. :/ The conversation about the other merger is located here. The proposed who brought up merger said it was the same as Virgin Mary, which is, of course, a redirect to Mary (mother of Jesus). You said, "I agree." Everyone seems to have agreed.

I don't know if you've seen this AN discussion yet, but if he is violating our copyright policy the way the discussion suggests, then something must be done, hopefully without a filibuster. On his talk page, he denies copyvio, referring in particular to a discussion at Talk:Enron scandal#Recent changes where he says "Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria states that "Articles and other Wikipedia pages may, in accordance with the guideline, use brief verbatim textual excerpts from copyrighted media, properly attributed or cited to its original source or author" and on the basis of that restores to the article the sentence "Enron’s use of distorted, "hyper-inflated" revenues was more important to it in creating the impression of innovation, high growth, and spectacular business performance than the masking of debt", which is verbatim from here. The sentence remains in Enron scandal - and is not attributed.

Would you please comment on the discussion on Blessed Virgin Mary (Roman Catholic). I believe that using one of Richard's words the "combative" nature of Malke 2010 is turning the page into a battleground. Just a minor example is even mentioned on this page where she blaims me for an issue related to her merge request when the problem was actually related to how she set up the merge request in the first place. It has been requested several times that she state exactly what her cite and OR issues are. But I will let you read through the page to get your own opinion. I personally think she needs some more time off from the Marian articles.

It seems to be a tense conversation in general, having started that way in mid September and picking up again immediately last week. I see some snippiness. I would prefer that Malke had not said, "What possible basis do you have to assume such nonsense?" But I did not see anything in reading through it all that would require a topic ban for Malke here (or probably even be actionable at WP:WQA), and snippiness doesn't seem to be one-sided, with comments towards her such as "That is much better then just shooting a shotgun at the article and expecting someone else to fix it", "it is like talking to a wall", and "I had to comment on this dribble." I rather wonder if the conversation wouldn't benefit from some additional participation, perhaps via the relevant noticeboards or the Catholic wikiproject. If a few more people agree that the tags are inappropriate, there will be clear consensus and the tags will go away. If a few more people agree that there are issues, the discussion might generate solutions so the tags can go away. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:36, 4 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-04T11:36:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T11:36:00.000Z-Marauder40-2010-10-01T14:17:00.000Z","replies":["c-Marauder40-2010-10-04T13:17:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T11:36:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thank you for your comments. The shotgun approach comment was a typical response to people that put tags on articles and yet either don't explain the problem or explain the problem with nothing to back it up, as Malke is doing to SEVERAL articles. Its one thing to put up the tags and say I have problems with x, y, and z. Its another to make general statements about the entire article, especially when it relates to misunderstanding on their part. As you well know, article tags for minor reasons usually just inflame the people that work on the page and don't help in the collabrative method. If you notice, the wall and dribble comments only happened after DAYS of trying to talk to her and not seeming to get through to her in any way shape or form. Thanks again for your comments.

I can see that the tension has grown in that conversation, and I do understand your point about being specific with concerns. When you reach the point where you feel that you can't really talk to somebody else, though, I think it's probably best to get more people involved. In my own Wikipedia experiences, anyway, I find that numbers can resolve a lot of problems.

Hello Moonriddengirl, thanks for your comments. Marauder is not correct about the examples.

If Marauder does not see the pattern that concerns you, a few more examples may be helpful. But, again, this is why getting others involved at this point should be a good thing. If your concerns are not apparent to Marauder, they may be to others, or others may be able to help bridge the communication divide between you. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 17:59, 4 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-04T17:59:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T17:59:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-10-04T14:25:00.000Z","replies":["c-Malke_2010-2010-10-04T18:24:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T17:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

He appears to be ignoring the clear examples shown, and keeps repeating that there aren't any examples given, yet he then goes and "adjusts" citations mentioned in the examples, so obviously he sees them.

On the other note about support, yes, I agree which is why I posted tags in the first place. These articles seem to be edited by only one or two editors and when others make contribs they get reverted very quickly. The tags are meant to get other editors to participate and fix the problems. I don't know how else to draw in editors to look into this situation without giving the appearance of campaigning for votes. I've already made mention on WikiProject Catholicism. Part of the problem seems to be that the two main editors on these articles have been tendentious over any edits made they don't agree with and rather than argue, other editors just leave.

This is why I've mentioned a possible solution, see thread below. It could bring back editors who want to make contribs to the topic and eliminate the POV content fork at the same time.

All I have been doing is cleaning up cites. How is that "adjusting" citations? Most of the problems she has listed are not a problem but her understanding of Mariology. The problem here is that Malke 2010 doesn't understand a basic tenet of Mariology. The meaning of venerate and honor are pretty basic and necessary to understanding Marian theology. It seems that since the beginning of the discussion she has conceded that you can venerate Mary which she didn't even agree on at the beginning of the discussion. I have provided cites from the current Pope that talk about veneration of images and yet she still claims Catholics do not venerate images. There isn't much more that can be said. She acts like I am claiming ownership yet before this discussion happened I have only done vandalism correction edits to this page. Now I am just cleaning up the cites to have use a common method and to use templates instead of the numerous methods that were used before. I haven't changed any of the cites.

Malke, please don't call people "tendentious". I'm afraid that kind of language only inflames situations, which is not what we should be doing. What is the basic dispute here, that this constitutes "original research" or that it is non-neutral? I'd be happy to request feedback myself from a relevant noticeboard, but I don't want to ask at multiple noticeboards. If I do ask, I will make sure to do so neutrally.

I honestly think that if you read through the main difficulty is with the word venerate. I think the only people that can really comment on this are people that have at least a basic grasp of Mariology as seen by the Catholic church and/or other "high order" churches (i.e. Orthodox, high order Anglican, etc.) Just opening things up to the world isn't the best things, unless they just read through the provides sources. Most of the other issues would probably fall into place when the venerate, worship, honor things fall into place.Marauder40 (talk) 21:01, 4 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-04T21:01:00.000Z","author":"Marauder40","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Marauder40-2010-10-04T21:01:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T20:51:00.000Z","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T21:05:00.000Z-Marauder40-2010-10-04T21:01:00.000Z"]}}-->

Moonriddengirl, I can clear up for you what the problem is with the understanding of the Catholic tradition of veneration of Mary and the saints: Council of Trent:

• "Moreover, that the images of Christ, of the Virgin Mother of God, and of the other saints, are to be had and retained particularly in temples, and that due honour and veneration are to be given them; not that any divinity, or virtue, is believed to be in them, on account of which they are to be worshipped; or that anything is to be asked of them; or, that trust is to be reposed in images, as was of old done by the Gentiles who placed [Page 235] their hope in idols; but because the honour which is shown them is referred to the prototypes which those images represent; in such wise that by the images which we kiss, and before which we uncover the head, and prostrate ourselves, we adore Christ; and we venerate the saints, whose similitude they bear: as, by the decrees of Councils, and especially of the second Synod of Nicaea, has been defined against the opponents of images.

What is happening here is that History2007 and Marauder are leaving off the part about the explicit understanding that veneration does not in any way convey divinity and that the image itself is not to be venerated, nor anything asked of the image, or any trust put in the image. This fact is completely missing from the article. The sources that have been getting appended do not in any way illuminate this fact, but rather confuse the issue all the more.

The entire article is centered, fixated, on the veneration of images of Mary, and suggests that Mary is more than what she believed to be by Catholics, that somehow she is more like Christ, etc. This is completely false. Catholics do not believe that. And the article does not in any way convey an understanding of the Blessed Virgin Mary in any other way but through this veneration of images. Notice also, the complete redundancy of other articles being used to keep the theme that this all veneration. This is what is making the article nothing more than a POV content fork.

This is why I believe that the only solution then is to restore the Blessed Virgin Mary so that the Catholic view, which is really very simple, can be taken care of in one section, with the views of other faiths presented also. We can eliminate the POV content fork.Malke 2010 (talk) 01:47, 5 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-05T01:47:00.000Z","author":"Malke 2010","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Malke_2010-2010-10-05T01:47:00.000Z-Malke_2010","replies":["c-Marauder40-2010-10-04T21:12:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-10-05T01:47:00.000Z"]}}-->

I made a more specific request on the project page. Maybe that will bring someone else into the discussion. Could you please ask User:Richardshusr to give his opinion?

Moonriddengirl, you asked a specific question above and I responded with the information. Marauder is claiming that it's a lack of understanding of the word 'venerate.' The Council of Trent makes it very plain what the Catholic understanding of that word is. What is happening in the article is a misuse of the word venerate.

And I agree, this is a content dispute. I've not done anything wrong, except shown that the article is a content POV fork. On the BVM talk page, Maraurder got mad when he kept moving my talk page posts and I moved them back, pointing out that he wasn't allowed to move my posts. He got mad and came over here to complain about me. He said, "It's time your mentor got involved."

I'd appreciate it if you would mention that a mentorship is not to be used to settle content disputes.

Also, Richard S has already commented earlier on Blessed Virgin Mary Roman Catholic.Malke 2010 (talk) 15:22, 5 October 2010 (UTC) Maraurder.__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-05T15:22:00.000Z","author":"Malke 2010","type":"comment","level":8,"id":"c-Malke_2010-2010-10-05T15:22:00.000Z-Marauder40-2010-10-05T13:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-05T15:32:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-10-05T15:22:00.000Z"]}}-->

Perhaps I didn't communicate my specific question clearly. When I asked, "What is the basic dispute here, that this constitutes 'original research' or that it is non-neutral?" I really only wanted to know which of those two categories of dispute it was. The particulars do not matter. This was related to the noticeboards and which would be more appropriate. Mentorships are not to be used to settle content disputes, but so far as I can see this section was opened because Marauder felt that you were "turning the page into a battleground". This is very much in scope of our mentorship situation. I know that Richard S already commented on the page; I've read it, and Marauder mentioned as much in opening this conversation (where he referred to your "combative attitude"). His comment there seemed balanced. I presumed you had no objection to his being asked to further weigh in, since you did not object when you left your last note in this section, although the request was already in place, and since your note at his talk page suggests you are open to his input. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:32, 5 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-05T15:32:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":9,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-05T15:32:00.000Z-Malke_2010-2010-10-05T15:22:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

It seems that Marauder came over here to get you to solve the dispute in his favor, or at the very least, to turn this into a discussion about me. That's obvious from the title he gave the thread. Richard S. has already responded here: [22]. I don't believe he is neutral since he clearly states he supports History2007 and Maraurder.

And as you've often told me, there's no rush here. There's no emergency to remove the tags. The tags will eventually attract others. The current talk page discussion might be keeping others from participating so for now, so I'd say, let things settle and see who shows up on their own.

I don't think it's fair that our mentorship is being dragged into what is only a content dispute, but I understand that when editors can't get their way they will fall back on that. That's why we now have the notice on the mentor page so they don't post there. Unfortunately, they'll be coming here. You can see that I've not turned anything into a battle, I've not been uncivil, etc.

The article needs to be opened up to a lot more editors to come along and edit. That's why I put the tags there in the first place. They don't want the tags there, that's why they fall back on the mentorship and making it about Malke.

It will take awhile, but for now, I don't think trying to get lots of people today is going to help. They'll just be there to make a quick judgment and leave. The article needs other editors to take an interest and stay and edit.

I have stated to your mentor the exact reason I wanted her in the discussion. At no point have I asked her to solve the content dispute.

(edit conflict) I'm not sure I follow you. I know Marauder came over to discuss you. As I said, that's the point of the mentorship and seems to be the thrust of the contact. He evidently felt that you were entrenching. If this is going to happen it all, it is naturally going to occur when you are in content disputes; why would you become combative with editors who agree with you?

In terms of your civility, the question is not without merit. "What possible basis do you have to assume such nonsense?" is far from civil, though not far enough from civil to constitute a personal attack. Other problematic content on that page from you includes this accusation of bad faith: "You seem to be deliberately 'missing' the point ... You're arguments are what Bill Clinton famously called, parsing." You've also told other editors "You seem to have been editing Wikipedia long enough to understand that you don't own this article..." and "Any further attempt to get answers from you is simply a waste of an editor's time." Does this really seem "respectful and considerate" to you?

If you did not believe that Richard was neutral, it would have been nice if you had said so earlier. I saw, but did not respond to the suggestion to ask him to comment until after your next comment in this section. That was to see if you disagreed. You may read Richard as purely supporting Marauder and History, but I see this: "This is not a court trial where you have to prove that the tags were or were not justified when you put them on. All that's needed here is to improve the article by fixing whatever problems there might be (e.g. lack of citations)." You have been saying all along that the tags do not need proof and that the article needs to be repaired.

• "Traditional wedding cake toppers depict the couple in formal attire and are often the only part of the cake which can be kept over the years, apart from photographs of it"; "Traditional wedding cake toppers depict the couple in formal attire and are often the only part of the cake which can be kept over the years, apart from photographs of course."

Otherwise, the rewriting there seems adequate. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:24, 4 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-04T13:24:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T13:24:00.000Z-Welcome_back!","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T13:58:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-04T13:24:00.000Z"]}}-->

Sorry for kind of dumping this investigation on you, I spent most of my available time yesterday tracking down sources for an unofficial mini-CCI of WJHC (talk · contribs) which was brought to light in the same ANI conversation.

And meandering on to yet another topic, speaking of closing a CCI today: Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Roland311 has only 12 images remaining:

• 1 which is a derivative of another wiki-image and now appropriately tagged
• 5 of which have metadata and I've confirmed are copied from a photbucket album which belongs to a "roland0311"
• 6 others which all contain metadata matching those from the photobucket album.

At this point I figure either those 11 are all either presumed clean given the presence of metadata (which wasn't present in any other image confirmed copyvio) or presumed copyvio given the evidence of 81 copyvios. Feel like placing the deciding vote for this one?

I'd rather ask you, whether you're currently here or not as you're always helpful :). Can you move the entire TVD season 1 Incubator content to The Vampire Diaries (season 1) it will be a lot easier to work on it there, it was one user who moved it across, a user now permanently banned for sockpuppetry. The season 2 incubator just needs deletion. Can you do that too, please? With these articles, it's much easier to work on them from the mainspace as many editors won't know where the incubators are. There's more information on these pages than some other TV shows too. Reply/make the changes when you can. Thank you.

Hello Moonriddengirl,

I think one possible solution with the question of the POV content forking in the Blessed Virgin Mary (Roman Catholic) article would be to restore this article Blessed Virgin Mary and merge BVM RC with it. In this way, all views that recognize this unique name for Mary could be presented the question of the POV content fork, which violates policy, could be eliminated. Is it possible to either pull back the original article from the merge with Mary (mother of Jesus), or to at least restore the use of the article name Blessed Virgin Mary?

Both are possible, but that's a matter for consensus. You might propose it if you think that others are likely to agree.

The initiator is allowed to be counted as obviously they support. And there are two other editors who also support this. Bringing back the Blessed Virgin Mary will allow the article to present all views while at the same time removing the problem of the POV content fork which is exclusively focused on veneration and does not offer any Church doctrine on Mary's status as the BVM. But these issues are best discussed on the relevant article talk pages as Moonriddengirl is not here to mediate content disputes.

I actually wrote the article and got it checked by the owner of the company. She will be contacting the email, since all written material on the listed websites that I "copied from" are owned by them and have the same materials that I used on the article.

The only ones I still have were hand drawn, and they're just as stupid looking as the drafts I abandoned. :/ (Well, that's not entirely true; I still have one of my Microsoft Word versions (incomplete), in which I used a template that is incompatibly licensed...and so can't publish. But it was just as bad, because the template wouldn't allow me to point multiple boxes at the same answer.) The flowchart was probably going to be pretty huge anyway if I had managed to pull it together, because I can't write short. I was looking at MLauba's concise CV101 (User:MLauba/Cv101), and it's still pretty hefty. :) I've just moved the blue box down; it adds some visual punch.

Hi Off2riorob suggested i give the Wikipedia:WikiProject Copyright Cleanup a helping hand :) for some strange reason he thinks i may one day be a quality contributor :), were should one start on this and what is the recommended reading before starting? Thanks mark nutley (talk) 09:53, 5 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-05T09:53:00.000Z","author":"Marknutley","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Marknutley-2010-10-05T09:53:00.000Z-Howdy","replies":["c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-05T11:49:00.000Z-Marknutley-2010-10-05T09:53:00.000Z"],"displayName":"mark nutley"}}-->

Hi! You would be most welcome to join us. :) I've spent a bit of time reading through Wikipedia:WikiProject Copyright Cleanup/How to clean copyright infringements to make sure that the directions are up to date. They are, although we're currently in transition with revision deletion and they may need to be updated to address that soon. But it goes over various ways to help out with text and image copyright concerns, depending on what interests you. Most contributors who are interested in addressing text start out at WP:SCV. Directions for helping there are at the top of the page. Two special things to watch out for there are duplication of uncopyrightable content and unusable rewrites. The former happens when content is copied from PD sources or when what's copied lacks creativity (track lists for albums, for instance). The latter all too frequently happens when contributors try to write content in their own words but fall short.

One thing I would caution you about: since you have had issues with copyright yourself in the past, I would recommend that you proceed carefully before clearing any content of copyright concern. Restoring copyrighted content may be seen as contributory copyright infringement (can you believe that's just a redirect? must fix that!), both legally and by others in the Wikipedia community. I'd agree with Rob that you can be a quality contributor, and I wouldn't want you to wind up in hot water inadvertently. :) If you are in any doubt whether something is copyrightable or if it has been completely rewritten, I would recommend leaving that for somebody else to handle. There are plenty enough obvious cases for you to find work to do while getting the hang of things. :) Because you are yourself the subject of a CCI (one of these days, somebody will finish Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/20100506! Stupid backlog), you should most definitely stay out of CCI work. We have had some subjects of CCIs who I feel quite confident could help there, but it's a good general policy that they not. If Wikipedia's diligence is ever challenged with respect to cleaning up after repeat infringers, it will not help us to show that other repeat infringers were doing the evaluation. While CCI is where we have the most need, there is (sadly) plenty enough to do in other areas as well.

Please let me know if I can provide further information, and if you need feedback with copyright work, you are always welcome to come by. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:49, 5 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-05T11:49:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-05T11:49:00.000Z-Marknutley-2010-10-05T09:53:00.000Z","replies":["c-Marknutley-2010-10-05T16:00:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-05T11:49:00.000Z"]}}-->

It will get odd false positives like that when either the article or the webpage is really short - since in either case it's easy for a high-percentage match when you only have a few words. It usually hits a few of each of those types of false positive a week unless an editor is on a stub-creating spree in which case there're more.

That's the right thing to do when a free license is claimed but not verified. :) Please be sure, though, that you give the proper notice to the uploader (the template generates the notice). In this case, I'd add a personal note beneath the template explaining the issue further. Even if the NC-ND license was mentioned on the page, the article would need to be blanked, though, because that's not compatible with our license. See a limited table at the copyright FAQ. We can only accept content that can be used commercially and modified. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:28, 7 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-07T15:28:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-07T15:28:00.000Z-Marknutley-2010-10-07T15:21:00.000Z","replies":["c-Marknutley-2010-10-07T15:39:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-07T15:28:00.000Z"]}}-->

Not specifically. WP:C says this: "Note that copyright law governs the creative expression of ideas, not the ideas or information themselves. Therefore, it is legal to read an encyclopedia article or other work, reformulate the concepts in your own words, and submit it to Wikipedia, so long as you do not follow the source too closely. (See our Copyright FAQ for more on how much reformulation may be necessary as well as the distinction between summary and abridgment.)" Our copyright FAQ says a little more, but not much.

I think that the WP:C reference is a good start. Probably it's the FAQ we need to expand a bit more. Although the essay can be more expansive, we should include more information in it.

Hi there. Would you have time to please assist me in sorting out this redirect? I created a redirect page here, and for some strange reason the title of the page appeared with quotation marks. Then I moved that page to the same title name without the quotation marks. The redirect page with the quotation marks however is still around.

I agree with Mark. I have revision deleted the content from your talk page, since it seems to be taken from a 1999 publication.

Hi Moonriddengirl. On the article Catholic Church, I think the 'Barry' citation is the same one I'm familiar with, Colman J. Barry, Readings in Church History, and several other titles by him, but I couldn't find the actual book being used on that article, just his last name and page numbers. It might be that the article has been redone so many times something has been dropped. And, I was really impressed you found that error in my cites.

Hi. :) I may not be quite as familiar with the situation as you think. :/ I know the basics of the dispute, but have not really read either article which goes into nuances that are well beyond me. I see that Catholic views on Mary is currently up for AfD, and I know from your note at Malke's page that you believe the creation of the new article was disruptive. (As a non-Catholic, I will admit that there seem to me to be quite a lot of articles on the same subject, and I'm totally confused as to the proliferation of articles on different perspectives of one person, but I don't know if there is sufficient material to warrant them.) Mary (mother of Jesus) has seen a lot of activity today, but if there is something specifically disruptive about it, please point it out.

I can dig that up for you, if you'd like along with the links and whatnot that have been used. It might make a base for new expansion. Do you want it? :) --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 01:02, 9 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-09T01:02:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-09T01:02:00.000Z-TenPoundHammer-2010-10-09T00:55:00.000Z","replies":["c-TenPoundHammer-2010-10-09T01:11:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-09T01:02:00.000Z"]}}-->

All right. :) Such as it is, it's at User:TenPoundHammer/Doyle Grisham. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 01:37, 9 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-09T01:37:00.000Z","author":"Moonriddengirl","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-09T01:37:00.000Z-TenPoundHammer-2010-10-09T01:11:00.000Z","replies":["c-TenPoundHammer-2010-10-09T01:48:00.000Z-Moonriddengirl-2010-10-09T01:37:00.000Z"]}}-->
