For images and media suspected of violating copyright, see Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion.
This page has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors.
Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared.
Starting on 31 October 2009, CSB has been modified to report SCV on daily pages. Effective immediately, cleared reports are no longer to be removed from the daily lists but marked as cleared (as is done on WP:CP), either manually or using {{SCV}}.

This page lists possible copyright violations as detected by CorenSearchBot. If CorenSearchBot is down, please e-mail Coren or leave him a message.

Instructions:

  • {{SCV}} may be used to tag items on the list, based on their current status.
  • Blatant copyright infringements where no permission or ownership is asserted and no untainted version exists should be tagged for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G12 with {{db-copyvio}}. Mark them as such on this list, but do not remove them.
  • Mark non-blatant copyright infringements and blatant infringements where permission or ownership is asserted for review at Copyright problems. Replace the article with {{subst:copyvio|url=''source''}}, follow the directions on that template for notifying the contributor and note below the listing that the article has been blanked for later review.
  • Non-violations or corrected violations may be noted on the list by anybody.
    • Note: Contributions licensed under CC-BY-SA and GFDL must still be attributed. Please put a link to the original source of the material at the foot of the article and on the article's talk page. If the source is CC-BY-SA or CC-BY-SA-compatible only, please note that.
  • Important note about in-wiki copies: CSBot only tags new pages; if it appears that a page was moved to a new location, it may be a cut-and-paste copy instead of an actual move, and those must be fixed by an administrator otherwise the contribution history is no longer attached to the text, which is violating the copyright of the contributors. On the other hand, it may catch cases of editors splitting an existing page; if the source page is clear in the new page's history through edit summaries then this would be a false positive and the tag put on the new page needs to be removed.
