This template will add tagged articles to Category:Copied and pasted articles and sections. If you have strong reason to believe that the source material is copyrighted, please instead follow the procedure at Wikipedia:Copyright problems. If a source cannot be identified, please use {{Cv-unsure}}.

Syntax

To place this template, simply add {{Copypaste}} to the top of the suspect article or section. You may optionally include 3 arguments – one showing the date the tag was added, a second specifying whether it is an entire article or just a section that is suspect, and a third linking to the url you believe contains the original text.

For example:

{{Copypaste|section|url=https://example.org|date=November 2024}} produces:

Parameters

  • |date=: the date the tag was added
  • |url=: the URL believed to contain the original text
  • |1= (or an empty parameter): text to replace the word "article", usually "section"
