Suspected Copyright Violations (CorenSearchBot reports)

SCV for 2009-12-09 Edit {{Wikipedia:Suspected copyright violations/2009-12-09 }}

Charles Fryatt (history · last edit) from [1]. This is currently at DYK on the main page and the text looks suspiciously close to the page I have linked to. If there is something here that makes this OK, then I apologise, but I think it needs checking out. Jackyd101 (talk) 00:36, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Note New article written from scratch, copyvio version deleted and new article has replaced it. Mjroots (talk) 06:37, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

THE–QS World University Rankings, 2009 (history · last edit) from http://www.topuniversities.com/world-university-rankings. This page has a copyright notice, and the rankings contain an subjective set of weighing factors which would appear to make them capable of being copyrighted.

Green tickY Reduced to top 10. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:33, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Gregory House (history · last edit) from "The Cornell Lunatic", a campus magazine. User:Villegas.benny claims certain sections of plot description were copied. Note that the user removed the text, at first claiming spoilers, which I reverted. Plagiarism claim was only made in subsequent reversions. I'm not sure what to do with this as it can't be verified, and the spoiler concern might still be at play here. See User talk:Villegas.benny for my interaction with the user.

Green tickY I think the suggestion of plagiarism is dubious at best. This is the material removed. The sentence "House accurately deciphers people's motives and histories from aspects of their personality and appearance" began its life in August 2006, here. The sentence "His friend and colleague Dr. James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) says that while some doctors have the "Messiah complex"—they need to "save the world", House has the "Rubik's complex"—he needs to "solve the puzzle"" began its life in July 2006, here. Then "This skill is demonstrated in a scene where House diagnoses an entire waiting room full of patients in little over one minute on his way out of the hospital clinic" entered the article in January 2006. If there is infringement, it is almost certainly the other way around. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 20:25, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

A contributor indicates a willingness to rewrite, so I've relisted. Copyvio foundational and probably more extensive than identified. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:29, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Relisting to allow AfD to close. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 19:06, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

We're almost certainly going to get OTRS clearance for this. Relisting under today. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 15:54, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, no follow up. :/ We have no choice but to delete the article. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 14:12, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
