Contributor copyright investigation

This CCI cleanup subpage has been opened because concerns of multiple point infringement have been substantiated and further steps are necessary to address the serious risk of copyright violation from the listed contributor. Listings are not intended to imply a presumption of bad faith on the part of any contributor, as copyright laws vary widely around the world and many contributors who violate Wikipedia's copyrights policy do so inadvertently through not understanding it or the United States' laws that govern it.

If you are here because of a note on an article's talk page explaining removal of text, please do not restore any removed text without first ensuring that the text does not duplicate, closely paraphrase or plagiarize from a previously published source. You are welcome to use sourced facts that may have been removed to create new content in your own words or to incorporate brief quotations of copyrighted material in accordance with the non-free content policy and guideline.

This page has been blanked as a courtesy .

-==Instructions==
-'''All contributors with no history of copyright problems are welcome to contribute to clean up.'''
-''If contributors have been shown to have a history of extensive copyright violation, it may be assumed without further evidence that all of their major contributions are copyright violations, and they may be removed indiscriminately in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations]].'' However, to avoid collateral damage, efforts should be made when possible to verify infringement before removal.
-When every section is completed, please alter the listing for this CCI at [[Wikipedia:CCI#Open_investigations]] to include the tag "completed=yes". This will alert a clerk that the listing needs to be archived.
-*<code><nowiki>{{CCI-open|Contributor name|Day Month Year|completed=yes}}</nowiki></code>
-===Images===
-*Examine the images below. For free images:
-**Does the image look non-free? Is it likely the uploader is the copyright holder?
-**Is the image properly licensed and sourced? Be aware of images that say "this image is licensed under X" without specifying who created it.
-**Do a reverse image search using [[TinEye]]. Check the license of the source page. Compare the last modified time with the (Commons) upload time.
-**Do a Google image search for phrases that describe the image's contents.
-**See [[Wikipedia:Guide to image deletion#Addressing suspected copyright infringement]] on dealing with cases of possible image copyright infringement. There is no need to open a [[WP:PUF|possibly unfree files]] listing. Administrators may delete images from multiple point infringers presumptively in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations]]. Evaluators who are not administrators may section images into a "deletion requested" section for administrator attention.
-*For non-free images, determine whether each image meets our [[WP:NFCC|non-free content criteria]].
-**Note that Commons does not accept non-free content.
-*Annotate the listing with the action taken, e.g. if the image was tagged no source write "no source"; if the fair use claim is deemed ok you can write "OK fair use".

-*I've been cleaning up old images with the deprecated {{tl|No rights reserved}} copyright tag, and last night I kept running across images uploaded by this user. Checking out their upload log, they have uploaded hundreds of images here, many now deleted. They are sourced to a variety of websites and lack evidence of permission. Others are claimed to be {{tl|PD-US}} when they were actually first published in Turkey, which is life+70. The user will probably freak when they see their talk page; I started at the oldest uploads and tagged a bunch before I just got exhausted.
-:Many of the images originally uploaded here have been transwiki'd to Commons and still lack permission. The user also has a Commons account under the same name.
-:The user is familiar with the permission process, apparently, because some of their images are tagged with {{tl|PermissionOTRS}}. However, I noticed that the OTRS tag was added by the user themselves in all the particular images I looked at, so it might not be a bad idea to have an OTRS volunteer verify them.
-:Would welcome any advice on how to proceed. I asked {{user|Magog the Ogre}} and they suggested I come here. [[User:Kelly|<span style="color:#060;font-family:Monotype Corsiva;cursor:help">'''Kelly'''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Kelly|hi!]]</sup> 20:58, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
-:*This is the first time I've ever seen [[User:Cretanforever/Image copyright issues|this]]. There's another 70 warnings on the user's talk page. (This exceeds the limits of my Mathematica notebook.) [[User:MER-C|MER-C]] 02:43, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
