Does this board deal with close paraphrasing?
I know of one editor who has created a few hundred articles which are mostly close paraphrasing of articles from a copyrighted website. They have received copyvio warnings from User:Diannaa and a close paraphrasing warning from me, but things don't seem to change. Do I bring this kind of situation to CCI, or raise it at ANI or elsewhere, or both? Fram (talk) 09:10, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- CCI is capable of handling close paraphrasing, yes. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 14:39, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks. I'll file a case here when I have a little more time. Fram (talk) 09:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Fram if the user's behavior is not improving after the warnings, I suggest to open a thread at ANI as a way of preventing further damage. CCI tends to be very slow. Broc (talk) 07:49, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks. I'll file a case here when I have a little more time. Fram (talk) 09:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
Rewriting instructions
Just rewrote the clerk instructions for the page. Working on the default instructions next. All contributors with no history of copyright problems are welcome to contribute to clean up.
is put on the top of every page, but I've had numerous people ask if they can still help if they've had minor paraphrasing issues, and the general consensus is yes, they can. I think this should be changed to All contributors with no outstanding copyright problems
, with CCI cases and recent warnings/blocks counting as outstanding. IDK, I'm not up for bureaucracy, nor am I picky on what people want to count as outstanding. Sennecaster (Chat) 14:24, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
Authentication is now required for search engine checks on Earwig's Copyvio Tool
Hello! As of right now, Earwig's Copyvio Tool will now require logging in with your Wikimedia account for search engine checks. This is an attempted solution at trying to curb bot scraping of the site, which rapidly depletes the available quota we have for Google searches. New checks will require you to log in first prior to running. You will also still keep getting "429: Too Many Requests" errors until the quota resets, around midnight Pacific Time, as we've run out of search engine checks for the day. If this broke something for you or if you're having issues in trying to authenticate, please let The Earwig or me know. Thanks! Chlod (say hi!) 00:06, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
Integrating Misplaced Pages Library search into Earwig's Copyvio Detector
Hi - we recently spoke with EBSCO, who host the search tool that The Misplaced Pages Library uses to browse content available through the library, and they granted us API credentials + permission to integrate EBSCO Discovery Service with Earwig's Copyvio Detector. This would enable copyvio searches of more paywalled PDFs (it's not currently clear how much additional coverage this gives beyond what Turnitin provides, but we'll be able to investigate further once this is integrated). We've put some basic mockups of what this might look like at T378077 - thoughts and questions welcome! Samwalton9 (WMF) (talk) 14:55, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
