[edit]- Carl Henkel (history · last edit) from see talk. Jsayre64 (talk) 00:37, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
- LGBT parenting (history · last edit) Since I'm involved there, an independent administrator should address the copying of several paragraphs from http://www.glad.org/uploads/docs/cases/gill-v-office-of-personnel-management/2009-11-17-doma-aff-lamb.pdf Previously I [1] [2] found verbatim unquoted paragraphs from other sources. Perhaps someone uninvolved discuss this with User:Destinero who added those passages; he says he created most of the contents of that article. He reminds me of User:Gavin.collins approach to writing articles. I'm not willing to check every source for copy-paste myself, or to track down who added such paragraphs, but I see that some administrators do this on a regular basis.

- I've addressed the concerns at the article's talk page and am relisting this one to allow time for conversation about this specific issue. When it comes back up, I would recommend a summary view to see if there are problems with other sources or in other articles. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:14, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. I ran this through the copyvio tool and didn't find any other issues. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:24, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

- Thom Mason (history · last edit) from http://www.ornl.gov/ornlhome/leadership/mason_bio.shtml and http://www.sns.gov/~q1v/. I restored this after deletion, on the author's assurance that these are PD US Government sites; but am posting here for expert confirmation of that. JohnCD (talk) 19:03, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
I'm afraid that this is not PD based on the disclaimer on their website in which they indicate they are subcontracted by the government and release the content for non-commercial use only. :/ I've blanked and explained and will relist to allow the contributor an opportunity to address the issues. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:20, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
