Com'on... assume good faith !

I do the same when I am on a cleaning spree. When I discover troubles in an article, I clean those related articles as well. And if the problems all come from the same person, I investigate the person in checking all their edits. That's just logical and I think this is what is currently going on.

I do not want to sound unnice Rex... but I would be happier if you focused on the REASONS why you are in trouble (= your edits, which are often copyvios) rather than blaming it on the person doing clean up. It may be that this person has not done it perfectly well (yeah, the clean-up looks a little bit too thorough and yeah, the person does mix up with the tags, true, no great), but the real problems are the edits themselves. Be more careful in your editing job and the problem will just disappear.

Looking at the rate, I believe its an attack directed at me personally. So I'm taking them all! I don't even remember the edit I did to that article!

Yes please do send this list and try to improve them,  and then tell me how pleasant this work was.

Contrary, for the rocky dawuni article I d be interested as well where the copyright infringement was. I do not like that without admin permission it is not possible to look this up...

Also of interest in the conversation: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=prev&oldid=650110340#Copyvio_-_removal_of_tags_by_Spearmind


Otherwise... with a quick study of what is going on about the deletion spree, it seems that...
* in all articles, chunks are indeed copyvios. The chunks are smaller or bigger depending on each case.
* in many cases, the article is blanked in its entirety, then deleted.

Looks like it is a bit overkill to me. I see not why at least a stub could be kept.
