FYI
[edit]You may already be aware of this, but… an unblock request has been made. Montanabw(talk) 00:57, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- And subsequently declined by Diannaa. I'm hoping they actually take the advice being given to them. Sennecaster (Chat) 18:28, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
Questions
[edit]Hi Sennecaster. I have some questions. I did my first CCI report and the person was indeffed. You made a comment at the tail end, and I see this new page (Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Obversa) which I've never encountered before. I am available to help clean up or go through the list, but I feel ill-prepared and the instructions are scant. Since your user page indicates your 'thing' is copyvio, I was hoping you might mentor me on this subject. Please can you help me get kick-started on working on these? Questions:
- The list of edits, such as "Pages 1 to 20", are these all the edits they made, or are these select ones that some process identified as having had copyvios in them?
- If I find that someone else had reverted their edit or removed their content, such as in Princess Ariane of the Netherlands and Princess Alexia of the Netherlands, do I just replace the words "(1 edit): (+7260)" with {{?}} and 4 tildes (that seems like an invitation for someone else to reassess the edit instead of it being a final marker)? Or maybe I should add a little comment like "someone already removed the content"? (In this case, I did not evaluate for copyvio because the content had been removed as a whole.)
- In the case of an article they created, and there are copyvios all the way back to the page-creating edit, such as Baroque Pinto, how should one handle that situation?
- If we remove copyvio content, do we need to tag for revdels?
I'm sure I have some more questions, but these should get me started. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 01:00, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry for my delayed response, I've been busy IRL this week.
- They are all the mainspace non-revert edits that are over 150 bytes and not marked as major, sorted by the size of diffs. So the Pages 1 to 20 section has the 20 articles with the largest diffs and so forth down.
- We typically mark with {{?}} to signify that something wasn't checked for copyright, but it doesn't matter because it was removed in some way. If the content was removed for copyvio, we mark with a {{y}}.
- Most of us will remove the content ourselves and request revdel if necessary, but if you're not comfortable with that, you can blank the article using {{copyvio}} and list it at WP:CP.
- It depends! If the content has a copyrighted source that you can identify, and the amount of copyvio in bytes is reasonable for the amount of revisions to be revdelled, you should, but a lot of the content we deal with is long-buried in the article history so we don't always.
- Feel free to send more my way, or ask any of the other clerks and admins that hang around copyright space. And thank you for helping out :) Sennecaster (Chat) 19:34, 14 May 2025 (UTC)
