Help needed at CopyPatrol

Hello copyright patrollers, we currently have 90 reports at CopyPatrol that need to be assessed. I worked on it for an hour, and the caseload went UP by ten. Yikes!
Assistance would be much appreciated! Pinging some recent contributors as shown on the Leaderboard: DanCherek, Hut 8.5, Ymblanter, L3X1, and 1AmNobody24. Any assistance you can offer would be perfect, even if you only have time to do a handful of cases. Thanks in advance, — Diannaa (talk) 00:41, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can You Please Elaborate Where & How I Violated Copyright Laws In My Recent Edit On Mein Kampf... BTW, According To Me, I Actually Stated The Another Aspect Of Massive Popularity Of Mein Kampf By Adolf Hitler In India, By Citing The Source... Dibyayoti176255 (talk) 02:25, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't copy prose directly from your sources. To do so is a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. There's further details on your talk page. — Diannaa (talk) 02:34, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Back tomorrow

Hey Diannaa, I am having some trouble getting the reply tool to work in the proper section (feel free to merge this message), but just wanted to let you know that I’ll be back from traveling by tomorrow (Wednesday) evening and will be able to help out then. Best, DanCherek (talk) 02:55, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Dan for the update and for all your hard work at CopyPatrol. Unfortunately I am no longer able to do as many reports per day as I used to do so your efforts are greatly appreciated. You are an amazing Wikipedian slash genius. — Diannaa (talk) 03:06, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We had a discussion in Talk:Androgen_backdoor_pathway, where an editor requesting a quote: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AAndrogen_backdoor_pathway&diff=1213501476&oldid=1213500731

I'm not sure that this quote would not trigger a copyright violation.

I gave a quote but I'm not sure that I was right, could you please check Androgen_backdoor_pathway whether it was OK to gave such a quote: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Androgen_backdoor_pathway&diff=1213505632&oldid=1213486866 Maxim Masiutin (talk) 13:34, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My opinion is that it is okay to add a quotation under these circumstances. — Diannaa (talk) 13:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your help! Maxim Masiutin (talk) 14:25, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

CopyPatrol is down

I have filed a Phab ticket. — Diannaa (talk) 17:31, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Quickly fixed. — Diannaa (talk) 18:13, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should I request a history merge for the copying from the list article into the draft, or does your edit summary adequately provide attribution? Robert McClenon (talk) 21:45, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There's no way to to a history merge for this. The edit summary provides the required attribution. — Diannaa (talk) 22:36, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Help Please

Earwig is setting off a few alarms for Ronnie Wavehill, I think the article is OK, could you please double check for me? Regards. Hughesdarren (talk) 09:40, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hughesdarren, There's some quotations that are skewing the results. Looks okay to me. — Diannaa (talk) 13:16, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ethics Workshop Participation Request

Hi! We're conducting a series of participatory workshops with Wikipedia editors, administrators, researchers, and Wikimedia employees to discuss, and hopefully improve, Wikipedia's structures for online research (see meta research page). In an effort to get the right people in the room to discuss these topics, I'm reaching out here to see if you are interested in participating as an active administrator. We'd work with you to ensure this workshop can fit into your schedule, but are targeting end of April/early May. I'm happy to discuss any of these topics further here or on our talk page. Zentavious (talk) 17:05, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking care of my copy vio

Yeah, I hastily switched words on that one. I fixed it, however. I was wondering, however, if you knew anyone who could sic an archive bot on the article in question Keanu Reeves in the media. Someone did a sweep once before, but so much content has been added that it's needed again. Thanks, again. I'm a noob who doesn't know much of this stuff. ToNeverFindTheMets (talk) 22:57, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You could try running the bot yourself: see User:InternetArchiveBotDiannaa (talk) 00:20, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diannaa, notwithstanding your earlier cleanup and notice, it looks like the copyright violations have continued. Cheers, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:E004:1418:F10B:6EBF (talk) 03:32, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diannaa, based on your notice, and after talking with the above user - I did go through the bioregion article to remove any/all copyrighted text, and also shortened the quotes to make sure they were just pieces of quotes - rather than the thing the entirety. Please feel free to review the Bioregion article, and let me know if there's anything else I can do to improve the content or links. I'm just going to leave things as is for now. Sorry, I'm definitely still learning the ropes here a bit. Thanks for your patience.(User talk:CascadiaWikimedian) 12:44, 29 March 2024 (PST)

I've done some additional cleanup at Bioregion. — Diannaa (talk) 13:55, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting

Is there anyway we can split Vulva into two articles properly? One for humans and one for non-humans? I want to see if there is a way to properly do it. Thanks. Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 15:08, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Splits of major articles might be controversial or contentious. The first step is to gain consensus on the talk page. There's detailed instructions at Wikipedia:Splitting. Why do you think this article needs to be split? is the first question you should ask yourself. It's only 6401 words, and almost all of the content is about humans, with only small section at the bottom about other animals. — Diannaa (talk) 15:22, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah I can see your point. Thanks anyway Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 15:27, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Splitting proposal

Fingering (sexual act) should be split into two articles. One for vulvar/vaginal fingering with its current title and the other for anal fingering with the new title "anal fingering". While fingering is a similar activity whether genitalia or anus, they are different nonetheless, in regards to technique and health risks. Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 19:30, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've posted on the article talk page, so that's good. You don't need to postabout it here though, since I am not interested in commenting on your proposed split. — Diannaa (talk) 19:33, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay then. That's good I'm at least doing the right thing! Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 19:34, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is there any way to get other editors attention about this? Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 19:35, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is that not covered at Wikipedia:Splitting? See Wikipedia:Splitting#Step 2: Add noticeDiannaa (talk) 19:43, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're right! Just did that too. Thanks! Autisticeditor 20 (talk) 19:48, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
