  • Lubna Olayan (history · last edit) from [2], [3], [4], [5]. Much of this page has been cut and pasted from other web sites, perhaps more than I listed. It seems to have been gradual over a long period of time. The latest version that I've found that might be free of violations is [6]. I know I am suppose to revert it myself but I'm too new at this to be at all comfortable reverting a page 3 1/2 years. I also don't think the page should be completely deleted because this is an internationally important women. Sophitessa (talk) 05:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you for noting your concerns. An alternative to reverting yourself is blanking the article and listing here. That gives regular contributors a week to deal with it, if they wish to rewrite the text, prior to an administrator's reverting back to clean. I have placed the copyvio template on the article and am relisting this under today to give those contributors an opportunity. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:40, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
