History of Balochistan (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) Copyright violation started from this diff and it was removed recently with this diff. I am seeing thousands of words were copy pasted from books in form of "quotes" in references that are actually supposed to be short. Capitals00 (talk) 05:23, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a source for the apparent copyright violation, Capitals00. Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:48, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Justlettersandnumbers: For now I am only mentioning this diff where the user claimed to have fixed the copyright problem after recognizing the warning for copyright violations.[1] Some of the major examples of copyright violations of this diff are: 76 words directly copied from the book, 90 words copied from "Baluchistan was the most.... were non-Muslim", 55 words, 107 words, 65 words, 81 words, 137 words, 180 words, 98 words, 89 words from "The Government of India reached a decision in June 1942...... 3rd June plan", 64 words, 72 words, 92 words, 159 words, 154 words, 73 words from "On hearing the news Khan... state by Pakistan", 137 words from "Realizing that he must act quickly.... on their behalf", 63 words, 77 words.

@Justlettersandnumbers: Noticed this while I was here and Capitals00's assertions fall flat at the first look. The first source is about Nasir Ali: [2]. However the statements about Nasir Khan in the recent restored version of the article has little in common with it. See this: [3]. There seems to be a usage of copyvio claims just for undoing others. 140.82.31.154 (talk) 14:17, 11 May 2018 (UTC) — 140.82.31.154 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Why don't you log into your account? I am talking about this version and earlier ones are even worse. Your deliberate misrepresentation won't justify copyright violation. Capitals00 (talk) 15:21, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As far as i know inserting quotes inside the citations are not copyvio, i picked this habit up from kautilya3 who does the same on many pages org/wiki/1947_Poonch_ rebellion#Notes wikipedia.org/wiki/1947_Jammu_ massacres#Notes wikipedia.org/wiki/1947_ Mirpur_massacre#Notes. if it is considered a copyvio by the admins then i was not aware of that, if admins find it a copyvio then i will avoid it in future.--NadirAli نادر علی (talk) 21:02, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:User Mason (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) Userbox includes school logo. Hoppyh (talk) 14:14, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, Hoppyh! However, that particular image apparently does not reach the Commons:Threshold of originality, so there's no problem here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:39, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
