FAC?

Hi Lee, hope you are well. A few months back you were kind enough to review Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1973–74 Gillingham F.C. season/archive1. I was wondering if you might have any spare time and fancy reviewing Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1937–38 Gillingham F.C. season/archive1? If not, no worries -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:56, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lee, you said in your edit summary to nudge you if you didn't look at this FAC by the end of the weekend ;-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:48, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Laurence Cousin

Thank you @Lee Vilenski for taking the time to review Laurence Cousin article and for your helpful comments. All my best Lewolka (talk) 11:54, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No drama Lewolka, I have completed your other article as well. Hope everything is good. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 12:14, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Plot summaries in episode lists

When writing plot summaries in episode lists in articles, is there really a minimum when it comes to how many words we should use? Rattatast (talk) 23:42, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Less than 200 words per episode, OR (not both) 500 in a plot summary for the season/show. Full policy is at MOS:TVPLOT Rattatast. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 23:48, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I already know that. The thing I don't understand is if a summary for an episode is under 100 words, why do some users call it "copyvio" without any evidence? Here are a few cases I've seen: [1], [2], and [3]. They would even even put hidden comments in episode sections, claiming a summary of less 100 words would be deemed copyvio, and those comments would even cite MOS:TVPLOT (here's an example: [4]). But nothing in the MOS:TVPLOT page says it's copyvio to write something under 100 words. Rattatast (talk) 23:54, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Rattatast "copyvio" refers to a copyright violation. Text copied from elsewhere isn't suitable for Wikipedia, as it is copyrighted. Plot summaries must be written by editors, not copy and pasted from elsewhere, regardless of length. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 23:58, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I understand that "copyvio" means copyright violation. The reason why I'm writing this topic is that some users would call an episode summary "copyvio" simply because it's short but without proving if it's even copied from a specific media. This is unjust. Rattatast (talk) 00:08, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You'd be better off asking the user(s) that removed the text where it was copied from if it really is your own work. I doubt that people are removing the text because it's a short summary. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 00:14, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I could ask that user but I'm not sure if he'll respond. In fact, he never answered this complaint. Rattatast (talk) 00:25, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that might be, but it's a bit odd not to confirm where the copyvio might have come from. Any ideas how we can sort this out BaldiBasicsFan? I'll revdel the stuff if you've got a source it is copied from. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 00:37, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Voicebox64 writes episode summaries on both Wikipedia and Fandom, as I proved on the 101 Dalmatian Street article on the Fandom Disney Wiki. Usually they write plot summaries for the wikis they use, but if they use text from another wiki they wrote for, does that count as WP:COPYVIO per say? BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 00:55, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If they do it here first, there is no issue. Under CC-BY-SA, you could technically copy text from a page over, but you also need to give credit, so in practice it doesn't work. I'm not really sure what that has to do with this users query though. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 00:59, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For The Chicken Squad issue, I have written episodes summaries of my own with shows like Santiago of the Seas and Urusei Yatsura. However, those are rare occasions as a rarely write summaries. I don't copy paste nowadays though, but writing summaries with a 100-200 word scale can be quite difficult. Even if you write an original summary is less than 100 words, it could be suspected as copyvio. I might think about writing summaries for Chicken Squad in the 100-200 word scale now that you brought me here. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 01:11, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So you didn't remove the text because it was a copyright violation, but because you assumed so due to length? Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 01:13, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Correct. There was an incident that happened with The Cuphead Show! where an IP removed the summaries for the purpose of vandalism, but another user whose logged-in thinks they were pasted from Fandom. However the user didn't give us proof. I'm not an expert but sometimes users may copy an overly detailed plot from Fandom though obviously copyvio. Most people I know don't do this when making plots over 200 words, but that can happen rarely. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 01:23, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • If a log-in user claims the text was pasted from somewhere without providing any evidence, it's probably just a bluff. Anyway, it's normal to write just the main part of the plot rather than the entire plot. Rattatast (talk) 05:54, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, so just a reminder, we don't remove information on the presumption that the info is copyrighted if we can't find a source. We do have plenty of admin who work on this. For individual users, try WP:CCI. If there's any doubt, tag the information and enter a discussion as outlined in WP:CV. I can't tell you if the text Rattatast has added was a violation, but I also couldn't find where it may have come from. I would recommend communicating on the talk page for the article in question to move on. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 10:47, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
With regards to text being judged as copyvio without evidence, I'm having that problem in the SuperKitties article. Rattatast (talk) 14:53, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
BaldiBasicsFan that's ridiculous, you cannot just remove information because you think it might be copied as it is short. I've already pointed you to the right places for where and how to deal with copyright violations. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 15:22, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Per MOS:TVPLOT, summaries should be about 100-200 words in length, but pointed out in hidden note in many episode lists, "those substantially less than 100 words are most likely to be scrutinized for possible copyright violation." BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 15:34, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Huh? So someone has left a comment (not in the MOS) that there might be copyvio, so it should be scrutinized, so you just delete, without checking? That's crazy. Anyone can leave a hidden comment. A larger written summary is just as likely to be a copyright violation as a shorter one. If you have a source location, fantastic, otherwise push it to the relevant noticeboard with your thoughts. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 15:55, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) FWIW, If I've understood copyright policy correctly, if the same person writes content on both Fandom (or anywhere else really) and also on Wikipedia, then there is no copyvio issue at all. You can publish your own material to both, under the conditions of each. If the material is on Fandom and written by someone else, then it can also be copied over to Wikipedia, as Fandom text is under CC-BY-SA... with the proviso that proper attribution information is provided... detail on that is at Help:Adding open license text to Wikipedia. In any case deleting material on sight, with no evidence that any copyvio has occurred, seems a little bizarre...  — Amakuru (talk) 18:03, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty sure that you'd still need to attribute to yourself even if you'd written both. You can 100% plagiarise yourself. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 19:14, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Adding BrickMaster02 to this conversation as they were editing the SuperKitties article a lot. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 22:43, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Lee Vilenski

Out of curiosity, what do you think about that. Would you mind to eventually help reach (new) consensus? Cheers Dawid2009 (talk) 20:57, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can't say it matters all that much, but we should probably make the titles a bit more exciting than "sustained success". Winning his first Ballon D'Or seems like a suitable comment. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 12:40, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

GA review

Hi there. Long time no see. I have nominated [[Shogo Makishima]] for GA but couldn't find a review in the past month. It's a small article but it was copyedited. In case you review it, I'd appreciate it. Cheers. Tintor2 (talk) 21:22, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
