Possible copyvios as detected by Wherebot. You can remove them when you are done.

• Hardware in the loop simulation -- www.adi.com/products_sim_qhil.htm. Reported at 17:03, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Copyright permission appears to be pending... see talk --W.marsh 18:31, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I added a comment. It is basically a "But I wrote that, I give permission to use it" situation. I don't think these editors are either pointing out what GFDL means to the author, or the author does not comprehend that. That is why I usually use "extreme examples" ("So, I will pick your text, change words to damage your product reputation, and post it in my site without you being able to claim I am breaking your copyright") with people to make them understand it is better to just write an article from scratch than requesting permission. -- ReyBrujo 21:06, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

• Freedom High School (Oakley,California) -- www.libertyuhsd.k12.ca.us/Freedom/. Reported at 22:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

  First paragraph is copyvio. the controversy section appears to be original. No action taken so far. -- ReyBrujo 01:59, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

• MESPOM -- www.personal.ceu.hu/students/05/Georgios_Dimitrios/MESPOM.html. Reported at 12:30, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

  Tagged as speedy copyvio. Erdenesai (talk · contribs) informed. -- ReyBrujo 12:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

  Rewritten by another user, copyvio still in the first two versions of the history. If that is not a problem, just delist this entry. -- ReyBrujo 16:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

• George Sarton Medal -- www.ou.edu/islamsci/Sabra-SartonMedal.htm. Reported at 00:57, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

  Leading paragraph is copyvio. Maybe it is better to just rewrite it, or delete the article pasting the table and creating a new leading. No action taken so far. -- ReyBrujo 01:18, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

• Harrison County High School, Cynthiana, Kentucky -- magic-guides.com/topics/Magic%20School%20Bus.html. Reported at 05:22, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

  Apparent false positive. -- ReyBrujo 07:00, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

• Dashboard of Sustainability -- esl.jrc.it/dc/db_leafl.doc. Reported at 10:49, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

• Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car (Top Gear) -- www.mobyell.com/Top_Gear.html. Reported at 11:50, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

  The page was recently split off from Top Gear#Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car. I'm guessing this is a false positive, though the URL given is down at this moment, so I can't confirm. --Interiot 17:12, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

  Indeed. I considered that too, but since mobyell.com is not being listed as a mirror, I thought I would keep it listed here until the site is up again. I believe it is a relatively new site, as Yahoo has no cached version of their pages and Netcraft has no statistics about the site. Since this is a split, I guess we can treat this as a false positive, maybe leaving a note in the article for future reference in case mobyell.com ever comes back. -- ReyBrujo 17:24, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Not wherebot, but...

... I couldn't see where to put issues about patterns suggesting possible copyright violations. If this is not the place, can someone please move this appropriately?

Someone with experience should look into the images uploaded by User:Cristian Adrian. He's had a tendency after being warned by Orphanbot to simply tag things as GFDL, but it's really hard for me to believe that is accurate.

It is possible that some of his images are his own and are OK, but quite a few look very professional and not recent. Either he is a professional quality photographer, whose work includes a picture of Unirii Square in Bucharest almost certainly taken no later than 10 years ago (User:Dahn and I both think it is that old), aerial photography of Bucharest, and a very good but (look to the lower right) doctored night shot of Bucharest or he is uploading other people's images. The relatively low resolutions of these photos is also atypical of people uploading their own digital or scanned photography. I asked a question on the talk page of the Unirii Square question, which is the one that initially got my attention (I also added a caption to it), then I noticed that the issue might be more general. - Jmabel | Talk 19:13, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
