Copyright problem edit

 

This article has been reverted by a bot to this version as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) This has been done to remove User:Accotink2's contributions as they have a history of extensive copyright violation and so it is assumed that all of their major contributions are copyright violations. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

I readded the listings that Accotink2 added. I suspect that this user copied across info wholesale from the French site's article. Could someone with good French please cross-check the prose and if it is sourced there, re-add Accotink2's work plus refs? It is a pity to strip it all here out without verification, though it was all unsourced. This bot (above) has removed wholesale any contribution that Accotink2 made under a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. What was mostly removed, across many hundreds of articles, was a huge amount of great work and nothing to do with CCI. Thanks Span (talk) 21:17, 12 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
I had a quick look, and yes, it was the translation of the French article that is mostly unsourced and written by various IPs. My only question is what was/were the source(s) User:Accotink2 usually made copyvio from ? --Anneyh (talk) 21:22, 12 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
The French article lacks sources, but I could not find evidence of copyvio there. As this article is about an author born in 1971, a lot of material is available on the web. Here is a source in English : [1]. It's from a French literary festival held yearly in Saint-Malo. --Anneyh (talk) 21:35, 12 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Anneyh, I don't think there is any copyright vio here. A badly programmed bot undid the work that Accotink did on around 900 articles, most of it very constructive and not CCI. More info is here User talk:VernoWhitney (see messages 20-35). If there's no evidence of copy vio please ad back. Span (talk) 23:06, 12 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
