Contested deletion

edit

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... looking at the matches, most of them are 4-5 word phrases which are proper names of things where there isn't a good alternative when two people are summarizing the background of the same person: "the national academy of sciences", "north carolina state university". I don't see any complete sentence matches or even complete clauses. Copyvios puts it at 2.9% confidence and rates it as "Violation Unlikely." However, this is the first time something I've written has hit a copyright violation, and I'm not yet familiar with wikipedia's culture/guidelines on here, so if people who know more say this level of coincidental match still causes problems for wikipedia I will understand and withdraw my contesting of the speedy deletion. --MoneciousTriffid (talk) 00:31, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

I removed the copyright alert from the top of the article. I agree, the copying that was going on was stuff that was common knowledge, like the names of universities. Astropiloto (talk) 18:53, 9 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
