Emery Battis

Hi. Thank you for your help yesterday. I've rewritten it several times but quoted stage reviews and it got flagged again by Eranbot. I requested deletion: https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Emery_Battis&action=edit&redlink=1

It's now in my sandbox: https://en.wikipedia.org/User:HistoricalAccountings/sandbox

I have gone through the text again removing all but two pertinent quotes but I think his list of accomplishments and academic credits might still flag. Can it be checked again before posting so it's not flagged again?

Thank you so much.

--HistoricalAccountings (talk) 16:10, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

I Already looked at the bot report and I agree that it's the quotations that's setting it off. The version in your sandbox still shows a 29.6% overlap with the Washington Post obit using Earwig's tool. Almost all of the overlap is as a result of the use of quotations. I don't know what amount of copying triggers a CopyPatrol bot report. Using quotations is not a violation of our copyright policy. But it's best to use a minimum or quotations and write your own prose using your sources as a source of information (not quotes) as it makes for a more engaging, interesting article. Wiki is hard, so sorry.— Diannaa (talk) 16:28, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for checking it. Do you think I should post with quotes (what would happen?) or remove them entirely (or some of them) for now? --HistoricalAccountings (talk) 16:40, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
I think the version in your sandbox is now okay to move back to mainspace. I will go ahead and do that now.— Diannaa (talk) 17:09, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Possible Copyvio Rodney, Mississippi

Hello Diannaa, Earwig's Copyvio Detector shows a high probability of potential copyright content in the Rodney, Mississippi article, dating back to July 2008. I could not determine if it is a mirror site of the Misplaced Pages article. Regards. Woodlot (talk) 16:41, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

The Wayback Machine confirms it was copied from that website; too bad, I gotta remove most of the content. Thank you for reporting.— Diannaa (talk) 17:20, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
Thanks Diannaa. Since you already have a goat, I'll offer you coffee and dessert for all your hard work. Woodlot (talk) 17:46, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
mmmm, coffee and desserts— Diannaa (talk) 17:48, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

A goat for you!

Thank you so much for all your help!

Copyright issues at Luke Jerram again

Despite you previously deleting problematic revisions twice at Luke Jerram (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) there have been two further attempts to add the same copyrighted text at this article. Thank you. FDW777 (talk) 10:52, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for the notice, I will paraphrase the sentences more at Hanfu.

Adopt a user

Diannaa, I'm trying to guide a user that you blocked several days ago. Is it ok to use and answer your question as a start point to learn about Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines? Regards, Jeromi Mikhael 17:34, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Hello and Copyright

Hello Diannaa

Thanks for your helpful note. Sorry regarding the copyright issue. We have a bit of a problem on that page, as if things don't follow the source exactly, two editors will remove it claiming it doesn't represent the source.

They are just very gatekeepery and want to stop any changes to the article, its very frustrating. I will try to avoid tripping over copyright rules again though. Any further advice you might have will be greatly appreciated as I'm quite new to all this.

For example can we use a picture of person under fair use?

PlainAndSimpleTailor (talk) 21:07, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

It doesn't matter how frustrated you get - please don't add copyright text to Misplaced Pages. It's not allowed. Regarding photos, we only allow fair use photos of people who are dead. Please see Misplaced Pages:Non-free content for the full set of rules regarding the topic of fair use. — Diannaa (talk) 22:15, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Hello so too editors are removing text using that source because it's paraphrasing about minimum alcohol pricing based of the source rather than repeating it verbatim. It seems to be stuck between a rock and hard place? PlainAndSimpleTailor (talk) 13:53, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't have time to get involved in that aspect.— Diannaa (talk) 14:31, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

ANI thread mentioning you

Antonio D. Tillis

Greetings, I would appreciate it if you would replace the original edits I made to the Antonio D. Tillis page on Monday, February 9th. As his assistant and author of his current biography, the materials I submitted to the page were not copyright infringement. As it stands, the current page is not correct, Hispanism is not even a discipline, and all of the updates I made reflect his research and his life. Furthermore, I spent quite a few hours working on formatting and typing materials to reflect the design and information he wanted to share on his page. DrPhd47 (talk) 02:51, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Drphd47

Thank you for your interest in working on Misplaced Pages. There are a couple of problems with your submission. You cannot post copyright material on Misplaced Pages even if you are the copyright holder, unless special licensing permissions are in place. That is because Misplaced Pages aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, and all content must have the appropriate documentation in place before that can happen. Please see Misplaced Pages:donating copyrighted materials which explains how it works.The second problem is conflict of interest. Writing an article about your own organisation or that of a client is strongly discouraged, as it is difficult to maintain the required neutral point of view. According to our terms of use, paid editors and people editing on behalf of their employer are required to disclose their conflict of interest by posting a notice on their user page or talk page. I have placed some information about conflict of interest on your user talk page. — Diannaa (talk) 03:04, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you!

I don't have a goat for you like the other person but thank you so much for your kind guidance and assistance on the Minnesota State Capitol Mall page. Myotus (talk) 05:22, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Brandon Lee's page need to locked from vandalism

Hi Diannaa,

A late happy new year. Brandon Lee's page need to locked from vandalism. The most recurrent thing is a IP address removing the name of his partner.

https://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Brandon_Lee#Removal_of_Eliza_Hutton_from_infobox_as_partner_spam

I have also seen an IP address saying they shot him, way back when.

Most recently homophobic jokes. https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Brandon_Lee&diff=next&oldid=992791264

But yeah a lot of users have wasted time reverting vandalism on this page. I think it should be locked from unregistered users.

Thank you.Filmman3000 (talk) 06:17, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. In the future, please use WP:RFPP for requests for page protection.— Diannaa (talk) 12:33, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for referring to the right place but there is a coincidence here. When you declined it an IP address showed up and went insane on Lee's page. The thing that bothers me with it, is not the vandalism, but the creepy factor of it. Combine this with the mental health issues of some of these vandals.
Look you may want to think whatever of me, but it was enough for @Slashme: (who's into math and casually in films), and @VeriteAca: to be a little freaked out by it and bring it to that talk page.
ThanksFilmman3000 (talk) 18:08, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
VeriteAca has not edited since October. — Diannaa (talk) 18:32, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
It doesn't really matter since VeriteAca did edit in a responsible manner during their short stint here. That is all I cared about when I mentioned him or her. I don't want to stretch this conversation too far, and you have been useful to me in improving my contributions here, however, I find that rebuttal weak. I could use the other user mentioned to say the exact opposite, but... Have a good day in the meantime.Filmman3000 (talk) 19:00, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
My point in mentioning it is because it has no bearing on what happens today. Vandalism must be persistent, severe, and currently ongoing for a page to qualify for page protection. This article does not have these characteristics. Please see Misplaced Pages:Protection policy for full details on the protection policy.— Diannaa (talk) 19:09, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Regarding Draft:junaid_bhat

Hey Diannaa hope you are doing good , i'm new here on wikipedia , before somedays i went through a draft Junaid Bhat so i started contributing to this draft i'm not too much experienced on wikipedia so i might had made some mistakes while creating this draft please look after this and i request you help me to get my first work published thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prakrutiprajapanti (talk • contribs) 08:05, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

You have to submit the draft for review before it can be published. I've added a template to the top of the draft to make it easy for you to do that. Please be patient - there are over 4,000 drafts already in the queue.— Diannaa (talk) 12:39, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
P has asked many editors to help her with her drafts. She has been advised to do her own work. David notMD (talk) 10:57, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Martin Bormann

Hello Diannaa I just wanted to tell you that I am not performing any edit war, but that many people keep removing my information even though I have researched on many reliable sources about Martin Bormann and his life and career. I am simply trying to making it much easier for others to use the page for academic and research purposes by making it easier to know the kind of guy he was. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Captain El Classico (talk • contribs) 13:32, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Please visit the article talk page and comment there, not here, as to why we should include your additions. Thanks,— Diannaa (talk) 13:37, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Copyvio

Hi I made this deletion, does it require a rev-del? Regards CV9933 (talk) 16:44, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Revdel complete. Not to be too picky, but in the future if you could tell me where the content was copied from, as well as let the editor who added it know that they did something wrong, that would be really great. Thanks— Diannaa (talk) 20:37, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Thanks and my apologies if I appeared sloppy, the violation was obvious, but my internet connection was playing up and Earwig's copyvio detector didn't launch for me, so I chose the easiest route. Regards, CV9933 (talk) 09:55, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the info. I don't need a copy of Earwig's report, just a url of where the content was copied from, so I don't have to hunt for it. — Diannaa (talk) 12:24, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Bond Exchange of South Africa

Hi Diannaa. I'm usually very conscious of copyright, and happy to comply of course. But I'm just querying the copy vio here: please explain what material was problematic? Thanks. Fintor (talk) 07:05, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Draft:The Charles Close Society for the Study of Ordnance Survey Maps

Why was this second draft deleted? The first attempt to create this page was deleted for copyright infringement (similar text was used as that on the CCS website). This draft was reinstated without the text but with the infobox restored. So I am not sure why this second draft was deleted. Please would you restore it so that text can be added and the infobox used? Cantiana (talk) 17:13, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

The version I deleted had three paragraphs copied from http://charlesclosesociety.org/society pasted at the bottom of the draft, added by user:Longhead68. I can restore a revision that does not contain the copypaste.— Diannaa (talk) 17:20, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Copyright on the page List of creepypastas

Hi Dianna, I came here because you put me on my discussion page and said that I had put copyrighted content, but I have never copied the text from the sources or put any copyrighted images on the page List of creepypastas. --Germanico5468504 (talk) 19:13, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
