- Roy Saari (history · last edit) from see talk. Near certain copyvio. MUCH longer than the standard DD original article. Plus the spelling and styling of "meters" alternates between American and British.*Kat* (talk) 04:36, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:00, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Rick Colella (history · last edit) from [1] Only the last sentence in DD's original article came from the source URL but there could be others. The second paragraph definitely does not sound like DD's boilerplate stuff, even if it isn't very prose like. Its very possible that he pulled each sentence (or sentence fragment) from a separate source.*Kat* (talk) 04:51, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:03, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Damien Greaves (history · last edit) from see talk. Either DD suddenly learned how to write like a journalist or this was pulled from a print article. I'm thinking print article because I can't find a trace of it online.*Kat* (talk) 05:02, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Seems pretty unlikely. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:05, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Narayan Dutt Shrimali (history · last edit) from http://www.gurupremashram.com/news/display_article.php?aid=GP97013. Shivashree (talk) 06:40, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

- Braxted Park (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) — http://www.braxtedpark.co.uk/history.cfm. CSBotreporting at 16:28, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Tagged as close paraphrase for further evaluation through WP:CP. VernoWhitney (talk) 17:31, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- -- Despite some revision by the creator, the article still shows direct copy-pasted text from the source. I'm adding a copyvio template and relisting this from Oct. 2 to Oct. 11 to allow the creator another chance to rewrite it. — CactusWriter (talk) 17:29, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
- The article has now been deleted but at least at the moment Talk:Braxted Park/Temp still exists in case anyone wants to check it and see if it's usable. The last time I looked this afternoon there were still problems, but there's been more revision since then. VernoWhitney (talk) 00:54, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. I've cleaned up the remnants that I found. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 00:30, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Hebrew braille (history · last edit) a presumptive copyright violation by Epson291 per Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Epson291. Peter Karlsen (talk) 18:04, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. That took a while! Finding information on the history of Hebrew Braille proved pretty challenging. :/ --Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:13, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- MS Insignia (history · last edit) Close paraphrase. VWBot (talk) 00:14, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:58, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- James B. Clark, Jr. (history · last edit) Close paraphrase. VWBot (talk) 00:14, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Article cleaned by investigator or others. No remaining infringement. Well over the line to copyvio. Took the time to rewrite this one, since what was left would never have survived and since the creator had not been notified. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:38, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
