Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)
[edit]
  • Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Tagged section predates source, absent an older text, not directly actionable. However, other portions of the article were at issue. Also has potential BLP issues - reported at WP:BLPN --MLauba (talk) 12:09, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am investigating this, and have relisted to make sure it doesn't drop off the radar. I'll blank the articles as necessary pending resolution. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:14, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Project management office from [2] and possibly [3] though this could be the other way around. At least some of the content, if googled, directs to the referenced book though I'm not sure how much of the article is lifted straight from other sources. 209.128.29.254 (talk) 14:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
A very large chunk of the article was added a few days ago; several parts of it are clearly lifted directly from the book you pointed to. I'm not sure the "how to" material was even appropriate for the article. I'll leave the editor a warning, and google spot check the rest of the article.

May need a second opinion. My first chunk of text to verify was the "The PMO strives to standardize and introduce economies of repetition in the execution of projects" chestnut which has existed in the article since 2005. Quite a few hits come up, but most credit wikipedia as a source; many do not and some are recent published works. I could find nothing that predates the wikipedia article, so it seems like the text is not a copyvio? Here's the search: [4].
Wikimirrors are the bane of the copyright checker's existence. :) I'll take a look and see what I find. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:09, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Green tickY I think you got it all. It's hard to tell, though, when even books seem to copy from Wikipedia (2008 publication clearly postdates the 2005 text.) :/ --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:16, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
