Mass killings under communist regimes[edit]

This article contains many extended quotes in footnotes. Is that in agreement with NFCC? Paul Siebert (talk) 17:44, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Don't think so no. They have to be brief (Wikipedia:Non-free content#Text). Hut 8.5 17:47, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The quoting does seem to be excessive - quotes should be brief and only where necessary.Nigel Ish (talk) 18:15, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Paul Siebert (talk) 18:26, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Way overkill. Quotes should be embedded, or if you are paraphrasing, the quote= of a citation template should be just enough to explain that. So while using a line or two on each citation, the volumes used are beyond appropriate. --Masem (t) 18:33, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. That is what I suspected, but I was not sure. Paul Siebert (talk) 18:39, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rapid grant for the creation of a CCI workflow tool[edit]

Hello, everyone! You may know me as the creator of the copyright-related userscripts CopiedTemplateEditor and InfringementAssistant. I'll be developing a userscript that better handles the processing of CCI cases and I thought it would be a good idea to request a rapid grant from the Wikimedia Foundation. You can find more information about the scope of the tool and the grant on m:Grants:Project/Rapid/Chlod/Contributor copyright investigation tool. Feel free to leave comments, questions, suggestions, ideas, and endorsements on the grant talk page. Thanks! Chlod (say hi!) 02:19, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tim Atchison[edit]

In reviewing this article after nomination at AfD, it appears that, while not a complete copy-paste, it was largely based on this biography published by Baylor University. Much of the language is the same. I rewrote the article substantially to address this issue, but an issue has been raised as to whether the prior version should be subject to revdel. Any input on this issue would be appreciated. Cbl62 (talk) 01:35, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Out of an abundance of caution, I did revdel edits which included the prior version's infringing content. If I was overly aggressive with revdel, please feel free to revert. Cbl62 (talk) 01:56, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The revdel and removal looks good, thank you for cleaning it up :) Sennecaster (Chat) 18:32, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2022-02 Intel processor family[edit]

I am afraid of copyvios in

Draft:Meteor Lake (microprocessor) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Draft:Raptor Lake (Microprocessor) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Draft:Raptor Lake (microprocessor) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

There could be

in 2021, a part of Talk:Alder Lake (microprocessor) (edit | article | history | links | watch | logs) copy-pasted into Draft:Raptor Lake (Microprocessor) and Draft:Meteor Lake (microprocessor) without credit
in 2022, a part of Draft:Raptor Lake (Microprocessor) copy-pasted into Draft:Raptor Lake (microprocessor) without credit

Could you take a look? Visite fortuitement prolongée (talk) 20:13, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Searching for old listings[edit]

Earlier today I was trying to look up an old entry using the article name - I don't see anything for that on the page, and the way to do this using the regular search bar is pretty counterintuitive. I ended up creating a search box for all subpages of WP:CP using {{search box}}:

I think it would be useful to have such a box on the page so people can easily search for listings that have been addressed. Do you agree? And if you do, where should it go? Kind regards from PJvanMill)talk( 15:34, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
