  • Henry Hickman (history · last edit · rewrite) from https://www.qmul.ac.uk/sed/religionandliterature/online-publications/a-biographical-dictionary/; https://archive.org/details/ABiographicalDictionaryOfTutorsAtTheDissentersPrivateAcademies1660To1729MarkBurden2013/mode/2up. Please note that this text at the Internet Archive is tagged as "opensource", and the large addition of text to Henry Hickman from the source in 2015, from [1] for example, may have been a good faith edit. The author Mark Burden may have intended to release it. If so, clarifying the license would be a very positive step. In any case the use in Wikipedia is clear plagiarism.Charles Matthews (talk) 11:54, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Page 11 of the PDF says the text is unquestionably copyrighted under an incompatible license and the archive uploader "Perrott Family of Wales" isn't Mark Burden. MER-C 19:09, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Jules Engel (history · last edit · rewrite) seems to be largely copied from volume 11 of Walt's People, readable here: https://books.google.com/books?id=3YmdyNAmh8YC&pg=PA92&lpg=PA92&dq=a+look+at+lithography+jules+engel&source=bl&ots=T7Jazgrj_I&sig=ACfU3U0z5noO0BX0d0TlyK4SQpKGpZNqQw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi7xOuE667pAhXSuZ4KHagFBdQQ6AEwDHoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=a%20look%20at%20lithography%20jules%20engel&f=false (Sorry if I didn't do this right!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quiksteppe (talk • contribs) 17:47, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Lagos State Ferry Services Corporation (history · last edit · rewrite) from https://ferryservices.lagosstate.gov.ng/. (Listed for 37.152.231.22) — JJMC89 (T·C) 02:18, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    More likely to be a backwards copy, funnily enough. The reporter has been rangeblocked as a LTA. I think we can ignore this. MER-C 19:13, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
