SCV for 2015-05-22 Edit

  • Checking with author, who claimes to be the author of the internet source (which is not loading for me, earwig, dd, or Wayback). Also he states some content came from frwiki's article. CrowCaw 20:07, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK here's what I got. Author states that the enwiki article is a transaltion of the frwiki article that he wrote (since deleted), and that the internet source is a mirror of the frwiki article. Using secret Crow powers (and asking a steward), I have the first and last revisions of the deleted frwiki article at User:Crow/Frwikitemp. At first blush it does look like the enwiki article is a translation, complete with tenses that don't translate well ("Lastmann is born in Belgium on..."). The internet source continues not to load for me (resets), though other pages on the same site do load. Thoughts? CrowCaw 14:59, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
