25 May 2017[edit]

I have warned the user and requested a revision deletion. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 18:44, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:26, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • It looks like there may be some broader issues with User:Hogie75's edits. I also found copied content in Scoudouc, New Brunswick. I'm putting a pin in this because I don't have time to investigate thoroughly now. Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:26, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • sorry I am not understanding what you mean by "issues with User:Hogie75's edits" I have not used any copyrighted material?, I may have moved the photos around or added a link within wikipedia to to a picture at worse, but I don't appreciate false allegations towards me. I have been a wikipedia editor for 10 years, I can handle constructive criticism but not without first talking to me. Calliopejen1. If I am doing something wrong, please tell me. 10:48, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Hogie75: At a minimum, you copied content from copyrighted websites into Scoudouc, New Brunswick and Fundy National Park. It looked from my review that there might be additional articles with copied content, but I have not had time to look thoroughly. Did you make a practice of copying place descriptions from the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick? e.g. [1] This is what was pasted into the Scoudouc article. This isn't meant to be attack--it's just that if there is additional copied content it must be located and removed. Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:25, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Is any further action needed here, Calliopejen1? And if so, what should it be? The day is otherwise ready to be closed, I think. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 17:27, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Justlettersandnumbers: Yes, I think a CCI is necessary. Multiple confirmed instances of copying, and the editor doesn't really seem to understand the problem. Calliopejen1 (talk) 23:28, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, that's what I thought, Calliopejen1, based on the number of instances. Would you like to open that, or shall I make a request to add to the already substantial backlog? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:33, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
CCI for Hogie75 requested here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:09, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Ugh, what a mess this user created. It appears that Knut Vaage is a translation from the copyrighted website http://www.knutvaage.com/biografi.html, and I'm guessing there are many more like this out there. I posted at the Norwegian WP:AN equivalent to enlist help, because it appears that he was pasting directly into no.wiki and then translating to en.wiki. We probably need to do a WP:CCI with the assistance of google translate and ideally Norwegian speakers. Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:36, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Roghue, Nsaa, and Eisfbnore: It looks like you speak Norwegian... Can you tell us if this article is a direct translation (or nearly a direct translation) from the website above? Thanks, Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:48, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I dealt with the article Therese Birkelund Ulvo -- removed text confirmed as copied, removed most other text as unsupported by cited references, and added prod template. Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:58, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Can't see any issues now. Nsaa (talk) 23:28, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Nsaa: I think I may have been unclear... I was hoping that you would review Knut Vaage as indicated above. Is that the article you reviewed? Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:35, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Calliopejen1: This portion is a direct translation "Development of a hybrid acoustic/electronic soundscape constitutes a substantial portion of Vaage’s compositional output. The works Electra, the multiMORF-series and Futurasjon feature Vaage working in close partnership with sound designer Thorolf Thuestad to expand the sonorous specters of the instruments through extensive use of electronics. Futuration for orchestra and electronics was premiered by the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra and Ed Gardner in December 2015."[6] from this "Utvikling av eit hybrid akustisk/elektronisk lydbilde er eit viktig tema i Vaage sin musikk. I Elektra, multiMORF-serien og i Futurasjon, har han jobba tett med lyddesignar Thorolf Thuestad for å utvida klangspekteret til instrumenta gjennom utstrakt bruk av elektronikk. Futurasjon for orkester og elektronikk blei urframført av Bergen Filharmoniske Orkester og Ed Gardner i desember 2015."[7]. Nsaa (talk) 09:15, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

CCI requested here, Knut Vaage blanked and listed. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:49, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
