Contributor copyright investigation

This CCI cleanup subpage has been opened because substantiated concerns of repeated copyright violations from the listed contributor requires systematic review of contributions. Listings are not intended to imply a presumption of bad faith on the part of anyone, as Wikipedia's copyrights policy differs from international copyright policies and many inadvertently violate through misunderstandings.

If you are here because of a note on an article's talk page explaining removal of text, please do not restore any removed text without first ensuring that it is free from copyright violations. You are welcome to use sourced facts that may have been removed to create new content in your own words or use brief quotations of copyrighted material in accordance with the non-free content policy and guideline.

Instructions

All contributors with no history of copyright problems are welcome to contribute to clean up. Contributors with open CCIs are considered to have a history of copyright problems and are not welcome to directly evaluate their own or others' CCIs. They are welcome to assist with rewriting any problems identified, and are encouraged to assist with accessing offline and paywalled sources.

If contributors have been shown to have extensive copyright violations, it may be assumed without further evidence that all of their major contributions are copyright violations, and they may be removed indiscriminately in accordance with Wikipedia:Copyright violations. This includes CCI subjects, so all of the below listed contributions may be removed indiscriminately. However, to avoid collateral damage, efforts should be made when possible to verify infringement before removal.

When every section is completed, please blank the page except for the yellow box and {{NOINDEX}}, and place {{subst:Courtesy blanked}} below. Then mark the case at Template:CCIlist with completed=yes. This will alert a clerk that the listing needs to be archived.

Text

  • Examine the article or the diffs linked below.
  • If the contributor has added creative content and the content is still present, either evaluate it for copyright concerns or remove it.
  • This can be done by comparing text to given sources, spot-checking with search engines or the Copyvio detector, or looking for major differences in writing style. The background should give indication of the kinds of copyright concerns that have been previously detected. For older text, be careful about mirrors of Wikipedia. It may be helpful to look for significant changes to the text after it was entered or using archives to eliminate later mirrors. If you cannot determine which came first, remove the text.
  • If you remove large portions of text presumptively, place {{subst:CCI|name=Dictionary of Australian Biography}} on the article's talk page.
  • If you remove large portions of the text (or revert to a previous clean version) normally, place {{subst:cclean}} on the article's talk page. The url parameter may be optionally used to indicate source.
  • To tag an article created by the contributor for presumptive deletion, place {{subst:copyvio|url=CCI wikilink}} on the article's face and {{subst:CCId|name=Dictionary of Australian Biography}} on the article's talk page. List the article as instructed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems, but do not notify the contributor.
  • After examining an article:
  • replace the diffs after the colon on the listing with one of the following and your signature:
  • {{y}} if copyright problems were found. If the article is blanked, please indicate this as well.
  • {{n}} if no problem was found.
  • {{?}} if no text from the contributor remains.
  • {{x}} if presumptive removal or deletion was used.
  • If a section is complete, collapse it by placing {{collapse top}} and {{collapse bottom}} beneath the section header and after the final listing.

Background

Dictionary of Australian Biography

  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/To-do/Dictionary of Australian Biography
  • Check requested by MCE89 (talk)
  • I’m requesting a CCI for about 1000 pages listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/To-do/Dictionary of Australian Biography. This was a project active around 2005-2010 to create articles based on the Dictionary of Australian Biography. The project page encouraged users to create pages based on the Australian public domain Dictionary of Australian Biography, courtesy of Project Gutenberg Australia, and the majority of the listed pages seem to have been created by directly copy-pasting from the source text. Unfortunately, while the source text became PD in Australia in 2001, it will not be PD in the US until 2044. There was some discussion of the copyright status of the source at the time, where it was noted that the work might not be PD in the US, e.g. see .
A small set of examples of pages created by copying from the DAB include:
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
    • , copied from
The users who created these pages seem to have been acting in good faith and were under the impression that the source text was PD (e.g. see edit summaries ). There were a few different users involved, and I haven’t found any copyvio in any of their other contributions so far. Given that, it was suggested offwiki that it might therefore be a better idea to open this as a CCI based on the list of pages rather than based on particular users, similar to Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/WikiProject Tropical cyclones.
Alternatively, if regular CCIs were to be opened for particular users, I would suggest that CCIs for Diverman and Jonathan O'Donnell are probably warranted, as they have smaller edit counts and a very substantial portion of their edits involved copying from the DAB. A CCI for PDH might also be warranted, but would have a lower hit rate given that they have a larger number of edits unrelated to the DAB. There are a few other users who also created a significant number of these DAB articles, but where a full CCI into all of their contributions would probably not be worthwhile. MCE89 (talk) 14:25, 13 August 2025 (UTC)
I can confirm that the Dictionary of Australian Biography is not public domain in the US due to the URAA, and will not be PD until the end of 2044. The4lines |||| (talk) 06:02, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
This should be opened, I've had to list some articles at copyright problems/outright delete a few. I think if we limit the CCI to creations from DAuB by Diverman and Jonathan O'Donnell that will give us the best use of our time/effort, but if we want we should add PDH's creations as well. I did not find copying or even CLOP from many others. @MER-C, how do you typically open these kinds of cases? Sennecaster (Chat) 00:48, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
Last September, I found 5 copyvios and 1 unattributed copying by PDH. One of the copyvios was from the ODNB. See my notes here. I think a separate full case on PDH would be needed here. MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 07:40, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
Opened Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/PDH. Listings for a given source require custom programming. MER-C 18:42, 22 November 2025 (UTC)
I can confirm that I was acting in good faith when I participated in this project. I was relatively new to Wikipedia editing. I thought that the whole project stopped in 2007 as a result of this copyright discussion between the project members (sorry, I don't know the syntax to wiki link talk pages). I stopped contributing to the project around this time, I think. Jonathan O'Donnell 23:40, 1 December 2025 (AEST)
  • Declining this without prejudice to opening a CCI or two on those who frequently used it and have confirmed vios. Doing it on a site it too much of a wild goose chase. Wizardman 15:20, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
    • I was requested to undecline this but as of now I'm still not entirely sure how this one would work. Wizardman 00:22, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
      • There's about 5000 usages of {{Dictionary of Australian Biography}} and {{Cite Australian Dictionary of Biography}}. I agree, there would be too many false positives. Best to identify users and run them. MER-C 19:36, 6 March 2026 (UTC)
        @MER-C There's about 5000 pages using it as a source, but there's only about 1000 in the Australian Wikiproject's old list of "Entries to copy from, iff our article isn't good enough". I've personally marked off about 200 of those entries on a personal subpage - User:GreenLipstickLesbian/DAuB - and removed about 100 vios while doing so. I asked this question of Wizardman a week or so ago, so I'm assuming there's fatal flaw in my suggestion that he's been too polite to tell me, but what's stopping us from copying the Wikiproject's list to a CCI page, and working from there? GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 19:56, 6 March 2026 (UTC)
        Okay, down to 594 articles from the list that I need to check. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 08:36, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Note that there are overlaps with Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/PDH. Any overlaps will need checking on both pages. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:53, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
