SCV for 2015-08-22 Edit

  • I hate these... clearly a CWW but clearly not license-compliant if we don't know where to attribute. Of note, same author created the 1912 version as well with the same copied text, but CSB didn't tag it as some of the racer names that contributed to this article's score were not in that one. The user does have email enabled, perhaps that path might work? Crow Caw 17:41, 12 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Justlettersandnumbers: Ok... here's what I got. The infringing text in the lede [1] first appeared in this version of the 1911 article. It was subsequently added by the same author to the 1905, 1909, and 1910 versions. The editor in question for this SCV and for the 1912,13,14,15, and 17 articles, reused that text in Aug 2015. So I think we can attribute this (and the other 5) to the 1911 article. Thoughts?
