Copyright investigations (manual article tagging)
Spurious listing. The Webster's dictionary clearly has a notice at the bottom stating, "Source: adapted by the editor from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia; from the article "Pre-eclampsia". Image Credit." --Xanzzibar (talk) 03:20, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You could have removed the copyvio notice and restored the article in such an obvious case. I've done so now. violet/riga [talk] 08:38, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am neither an administrator, copyright clerk, nor OTRS agent, as the template demands. --Xanzzibar (talk) 19:51, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I re-wrote some, the external url has sources, which aided the re-write - but I haven't got access to all. Article didn't have any sources for a well written section - and external source is a 'professional' page, a charity, with sources given - so I don't think it is a reverse copy..
The blanked material is about the history of the St. Pancras Renaissance London Hotel - already has it's own article but does not duplicate offending text..Oranjblud (talk) 21:57, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed the text and replaced with a summary - the copyvio notice is no longer there -see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=St_Pancras_railway_station&diff=509075685&oldid=509059049
