Wikipedia:Copyright problems
This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators. Please replace this notice with {{no admin backlog}} when the backlog is cleared. |
This page is for listing and discussing possible copyright problems involving text on Wikipedia, including pages suspected to be copyright violations. Listings typically remain for at least five days before review and closure by a copyright problems clerk or administrator. During this time, interested contributors are invited to offer feedback, propose revisions, or request copyright permission.
Listed pages appear in the bottom section of the page. For additional guidance, see Instructions for dealing with text-based copyright concerns.
To add a new listing, go to today's section.
Instructions
Handling previously published text on Wikipedia
Under the United States law that governs Wikipedia, copyright is automatically assumed as soon as any content (text or other media) is created in a physical form. An author does not need to apply for or claim copyright, for a copyright to exist.
Only one of the following allows works to be reused in Wikimedia projects:
A) Explicit Statement. An explicit statement (by the author, or by the holder of the rights to the work) that the material is either:
- in the public domain,
- licensed with the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License (CC-BY-SA), or
- otherwise compatible with CC-BY-SA.
B) Public Domain. If the work is inherently in the public domain, due to its age, source or lack of originality; or
C) Fair Use. United States law allows for fair use of copyrighted content, and (within limits) Wikipedia does as well. Under guidelines for non-free content, brief selections of copyrighted text may be used, but only if clearly marked and with full attribution.
Even if a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, material should be properly attributed in accordance with Wikipedia:Plagiarism in respect of local customs and attribution requirements of compatible licenses. If the terms of the compatible license are not met, use of the content can constitute a violation of copyright even if the license is compatible.
Repeated copyright violations
Contributors who repeatedly post copyrighted text or images may be subject to contributor copyright investigations, to ensure the removal from the project of all copyright infringement. Contributors who repeatedly post copyrighted material after appropriate warnings will be blocked from editing, to protect the project; see 17 United States Code § 512.
Instructions for dealing with text-based copyright concerns
Blatant infringement
Pages exhibiting blatant copyright infringements may be speedily deleted if:
- Content was copied from a source which does not have a license compatible with Wikipedia, and was not copied from a mirror source.
- The page can neither be restored to a previous revision without infringing content, nor would the page be viable if the infringing content were removed.
- There is no credible assertion of public domain, fair use, or a free license.
To nominate an article for speedy deletion for copyright concerns, add one of these to the page:
{{db-copyvio|url=insert URL of source here}}
{{db-copyvio|describe non-web source here}}
Both of these templates will generate a notice that you should give the contributor of the content. This is important to help ensure that they do not continue to add copyrighted content to Wikipedia. An administrator will examine the article and decide whether to delete it or not. You should not blank the page in this instance.
Suspected or complicated infringement
If infringement is not blatant or the speedy deletion criteria do not apply:
- Remove or rewrite the infringing text avoiding copyright violations or revert the page to before the text was added.
- The infringing text will remain in the page history, and it may be tagged for {{copyvio-revdel}}. Administrators hold discretion on the appropriateness of revision deletion for each case. Please note the reason for removal in the edit summary and at the article's talk page (you may wish to use {{subst:cclean}}). Please identify and alert the contributor of the material to the problem, unless advised not to. The template {{Uw-copyright}} may be used for this purpose.
- However, if all revisions have copyright problems, the removal of the copyright problem is contested, reversion/removal is otherwise complicated, or the article is eligible for presumptive deletion:
- Place one of the following above the infringing text:
{{subst:copyvio|url=insert URL here}}
{{subst:copyvio|identify non-web source here}}
- Optionally place
{{subst:Copyvio/bottom}}
below if only some of the article infringes.
- Go to today's section and add:
{{subst:article-cv|PageName}}
from [insert URL or identify non-web source here] ~~~~
- to the bottom of the list. Put the page's name in place of "PageName". If you do not have a URL, enter a description of the source. (This text can be copied from the top of the template after substituting it and the page name and url will be filled for you.) If there is not already a page for the day, as yours would be the first listing, please add a header to the top of the page using the page for another date as an example.
- Advise the contributor of the listing at their talk page. The template on the now blanked page supplies a notice you may use for that purpose.
Instructions for special cases
- Probable copyvios without a known source: If you suspect that a page contains a copyright violation, but you cannot find a source for the violation (so you can't be sure that it's a violation), do not list it here. Instead, place
{{cv-unsure|~~~|2=FULL_URL}}
on the page's talk page, but replace FULL_URL with the full URL of the page version that you believe contains a violation. (To determine the URL, click on "Permanent link" in the toolbox area, and copy the URL.) - One contributor has verifiably introduced copyright problems into multiple pages or files and assistance is needed in further review: See Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations.
Instructions for handling image copyright concerns
Image copyright concerns are not handled on this board. For images that are clear copyright violations, follow the procedure for speedy deletion; otherwise list at Files for Discussion. To request assistance with contributors who have infringed copyright in multiple articles or files, see Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations.
Responding to articles listed for copyright investigation
Any contributor is welcome to help investigate articles listed for copyright concerns, although only administrators, copyright problems board clerks, and VRT (formerly OTRS) agents should remove {{copyvio}} tags and mark listings resolved.
Assistance might include supplying evidence of non-infringement (or, conversely, of infringement) or obtaining and verifying permission of license. You might also help by rewriting problematic articles or removing infringing text (without removing {{copyvio}}).
Supplying evidence of non-infringement
Articles listed here are suspect of copyright concern, but not every article contains infringement. The content may be on Wikipedia first, in the public domain, compatibly licensed, or falls below threshold of originality for copyright. Sometimes, the person who placed it here is the copyright owner of freely-licensed material and this simply needs to be verified.
Information can be provided to prove compatible licensing or public domain status under the listing of the article on the copyright problems board or on the talk page of the article. A link or a clear explanation can be very helpful when a clerk or administrator evaluates the matter. As listings are not immediately addressed on the board, it may take a few days after you make your note before a response is provided.
If the article is tagged for {{copyvio}}, you should allow an administrator or copyright problems clerk to remove the tag. If the article is tagged for {{copy-paste}} or {{close paraphrasing}}, you may remove the tag from the article when the problem is addressed (or disproven), but please do not close the listing on the copyright problems board itself.
Obtaining/verifying permission
Sometimes material was placed on Wikipedia with the permission of the copyright owner. Sometimes copyright owners are willing to give permission (and proper license!) even if it was not.
Any contributor can write to the owner of copyright and check whether they gave or will give permission (or maybe they in fact posted it here!). See Wikipedia:Example requests for permission. In either case, unless a statement authorizing the material under compatible license is placed online at the point of original publication, permission will need to be confirmed through e-mail to the Wikimedia Foundation. See Wikipedia:Confirmation of permission. If a compatible license is placed online at the point of original publication, please provide a link to that under the listing for the article on the copyright problems board or on the talk page of the article.
Please note that it may take a few days for letters to clear once they are sent. Do not worry if the content is deleted prematurely; it can be restored at any point usable permission is logged.
Rewriting content
Any contributor may rewrite articles that are or seem to be copyight problems to exclude duplicated or closely paraphrased text. When articles or sections of articles are blanked as copyright problems, rewriting is done on a temporary page at Talk:PAGENAME/Temp so that the new material can be copied over the old. (The template blanking the article will link to the specific temporary page.)
Please do not copy over the version of the article that is a copyright problem as your base. All copied content, or material derived from it, should be removed first. Other content from the article can be used, if there is no reason to believe that it may be a copyright issue as well. It is often a good idea – and essential when the content is copied from an inaccessible source such as a book – to locate the point where the material entered the article and eliminate all text added by that contributor. This will help avoid inadvertently continuing the copyright issues in your rewrite. If you use any text at all from the earlier version of the article, please leave a note on the listing to alert the administrator or clerk who review the rewrite. The history of the old article will then have to be retained. (If the original turns out to be non-infringing, the two versions of the article can be merged.)
Rewrites can be done directly in articles that have been tagged for {{close paraphrasing}} and {{copy-paste}}, with those tags removed after the rewrite is complete.
Please review Wikipedia:Copy-paste and the linked guidelines and policies within it if necessary to review Wikipedia's practices for handling non-free text. Reviewing Wikipedia:Plagiarism is also helpful, particularly where content is compatibly licensed or public domain. Repairing these issues can sometimes be as simple as supplying proper attribution.
Copyright owners who submitted their own work to Wikipedia (or people editing on their behalf)
If you submitted work to Wikipedia which you had previously published and your submission was marked as a potential infringement of copyright, then stating on the article's talk page that you are the copyright holder of the work (or acting as his or her agent), while not likely to prevent deletion, helps. To completely resolve copyright concerns, it is sufficient to either:
- Link to a note permitting reuse under the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License (CC-BY-SA) and the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation, ideally using the email template at WP:CONSENT.
See also Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Please note that it may take a bit of time for letters and e-mails to clear once they are sent. Do not worry if the content is deleted prematurely; it can be restored at any point usable permission is logged. Your e-mail will receive a response whether the permission is usable or not. If you have not received a response to your letter within two weeks, it is a good idea to follow up.
One other factor you should consider, however, is that content that has been previously published elsewhere may not meet Wikipedia's specific guidelines and policies. If you are not familiar with these policies and guidelines, please review especially the core policies that govern the project. This may help prepare you to deal with any other issues with the text that may arise.
Should you choose to rewrite the content rather than release it under the requisite license, please see above.
Clerks and patrolling administrators
Copyright clerks
For a more complete description of clerks and their duties, as well as a list of active clerks, please see Wikipedia:Copyright problems/Clerks.
Copyright clerks are experienced editors on Wikipedia who are familiar with copyright and non-free content policies and its enforcement. They are trusted to evaluate and close listings and request administrative actions when necessary. Clerks are periodically reviewed by other clerks and patrolling administrators.
Copyright problems board administrators
For a more complete description of administrators on Wikipedia, please see Wikipedia:Administrators.
Any administrator may work the copyright problems board. Working the copyright problems board may involve evaluating listings personally or using tools as necessary to complete closures by clerks. Clerks have been evaluated in their work, and their recommendations may be implemented without double-checking, although any administrator is welcome to review recommendations and discuss them with the clerks in question.
Closing listings
Pages can be processed at any time by anyone, but are not formally closed until a clerk or administrator verifies that all problems are resolved. Pages listed for presumptive deletion stay open for a minimum of 7 days before being processed. VRT agents may close listings at any time.
For advice for resolving listings, see:
- Wikipedia:Copyright problems/Advice for admins (VRT agents, see section there)
- Wikipedia:Copyright problems/Advice for clerks
{{CPC}} may be used to denote resolutions of listings by administrators, clerks and VRT agents.

- There's not enough to justify the tag, and User:Skitash made changes to the article. I removed the tag. I hope you don't add it back. Also as I noted on the RPP, further investigation into your claim is welcome. Until you can prove extensive copy/paste that justifies the tag please don't add it back. el.ziade (talkallam) 18:13, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Also, based on the examples provided on the talk page (all of which have been addressed by Skitash), it seems that the copied passages are short and have been cited. Since the copied material is properly attributed and linked to its original sources, it does not constitute a copyright violation. I do not think it's justified to tag the article with a copyvio. el.ziade (talkallam) 18:25, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- On top of that, copyvio tool indicates that there's a less than 5% similarity and I've already changed and reworded content the IP hopper showed concern about, so their argument lacks merit. They are either deliberately pretending to not see it or refusing to acknowledge it by continuing to edit war. It's perplexing that they opted for a full copyright investigation over a few similar-sounding sentences rather than trying to improve the article. My best guess is that this is just another petty excuse the IP hopper is using to continue harassing me as they have done on my talk page.[2][3] Skitash (talk) 11:06, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- All that proves is that copyvio tool is pretty useless. 2001:8F8:1DDA:A9B6:17CC:E045:8086:7B37 (talk) 11:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

- Lance Bruner (history · last edit · rewrite) (Apologies for this unskilled messy entry, based only on some manual searching for phrases.) The article seems to be copied from a CC-BY-SA fandom.com article created the day before[4], with very light paraphrasing and without attribution. The fandom.com article may be copied from a gamespot.com one[5] - I can't see which is first - and ours might have been. The two sentences that make the second paragraph of our article are very lightly paraphrased from a 2022 cbr.com article.[6] I don't know if some sort of retro-attribution to fandom.com would be proper, or if the whole article should go as plagiarising that and/or gamespot.com - if that's the original.

Libyan genocide (history · last edit · rewrite) from "Genocide in Libya: Shar, a Hidden Colonial History" by Ali Abdullatif Ahmida (Routledge, 2021) [11]
Sections with issues are as follows:
Lead, paragraph 3: almost entirely verbatim from p.3 and p. 62
Lead, paragraph 4: Sentence 4 ("The history that Libyans recorded...") from preface
Lead, paragraph 4: Sentence 5 ( "As a result, Italian colonization and atrocities...") from p. 29
The issues above have been present since the very first version of the article, created on 10 December 2023 by Skitash (talk · contribs). Diff: [12]
Next is the "Etymology" section, which was added by the same user on 11 December 2023, much of which is a very close paraphrase of p. 98. Diff: [13]
Previously, Skitash had to reword the "Links to the Holocaust" section as it was a close paraphrase of the cited Middle East Eye article: [14], which they had added on 11 December 2023 [15] in the same edit as the above "Etymology" section edit. They have also been warned on 18 June 2023 [16] and on 2 December 2023 [17] for copyright violations on other articles.
The second user who has seemingly added copyright violating content is Mohammed Al-Keesh (talk · contribs), on 20 March 2024 [18] [19].
In the "Death Camps" section, the entire third paragraph ("Braiga concentration camp...") and most of the sixth ("Magrun camp interned...") is a direct copy from p. 42, p. 46, and p. 92. The first sentence of the first paragraph ("The colonial state spent...") is plagiarised from p. 60. There's also some copying of shorter phrases in the first, fourth, fifth, and seventh paragraphs.
He added the entire unsourced "Death Marches" section in the same edit, where most of the first sentence of the second paragraph ("One of the most documented is...") is copied from p. 62. The image included and uploaded by the user is also copied from the same text, p. 66, as evidenced by the figure caption included in the image.
Additionally, in the "Genocide" section, the fourth paragraph ("The intentional killing of cattle...") is entirely copied from p. 85, except for the first sentence.
In total, I count that around 400 words of the ~2.2k word article is blatant copying or close paraphrasing. I have removed the offending content in this edit [20] Meluiel (talk) 17:25, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

- So, the original article in 2012 after it got changed from the redirect was a copy of the linked above page from Vocational Rehabilitation Association UK. It was cited, but the content was entirely copypasted from there. The only edit history of the editor who did that is the creation of that article; their account is now redlinked. There is plenty of good content that has since been added by other editors, and I don't want that to get lost. But I'm not sure what is the best strategy when the whole thing is built on copyvio. I can work on rewriting it (not today) to remove the problematic content or at least paraphrase. But I'm not sure what to do about the page revisions since every revision has copyrighted material in it. Hoping someone with more experience can help. I only caught it because I was looking at the citations to add some more information/generally improve the article after merging. SomeoneDreaming (talk) 20:12, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

- The loginets content was added in this edit on 21 October 2021 by User:VeeraHuo, who was only briefly active and not recently. The edit added another sentence with a different cite, and that other sentence does not appear in either cite. Would be easy to excise. Is it worth rev-del'ing almost 3 years of edits for one sentence? Their other contribution is substantial content cited to multiple and diverse refs. Spot-checking, the contribution does seem to be supported by but not copied from them. So that places me more firmly in the "simply remove the one sentence from construction site safety" and take no further action based on that edit. DMacks (talk) 16:00, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
