SCV for 2014-12-02 Edit

  • Urgh. I hate these cases. :/ User:Crow, on the strength of a long-ago discussion about Billboard charts, it's my understanding that it comes down to human judgment: Wikipedia_talk:Copyrights/Archive_13#Billboard_charts. I have since been advised that this was a pretty liberal precedent, but I suspect that this chart could fall under that umbrella. If it showed up at WP:CP, I would probably ask for clarification (which I may not get - Mike was very liberal about advising on specific articles), and I doubt that I would myself take responsibility for restoring the content. But I also wouldn't seek it out to blank on my own certainty, as I did the other two articles. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 22:16, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Moonriddengirl, Crow, I fear this can of worms is not yet drained to its last bitter drop. I've just removed "ordinary" copy-paste copyvio from Nation branding, and nominated Soft Power Survey for deletion as G12 (same editor in both cases, the same as here). I'm afraid there may be more of the same, but the arms of Morpheus await me. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 01:15, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
