I will work on a rewrite... though it would be helpful to know what parts of the article are considered potential copyright infringement first. --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 18:30, 22 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

@DiamondRemley39: All of it. (I'm delaying deletion for a few days so that you can read this message.) MER-C 16:59, 30 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the answer and delaying deletion, @MER-C:. I've started working on a rewrite/expansion of the article. It will be at least a few days... I'm hoping over the weekend, but maybe even into next week... before it is done.DiamondRemley39 (talk) 17:25, 30 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

@MER-C:, I've worked on a rewrite and expansion, but I would like more information on what the copyright violation was and from where; I have not found an issue. Thanks. --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 20:27, 3 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

The policy is written for the express purpose of making the identification of the source and extent of the copyvios unnecessary. All I need to demonstrate is that Billy Hathorn is the only substantive author of this article and that he is banned for copyright infringement. MER-C 20:38, 3 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
