Knowledgegeek now looks close to compliance, acknowledging Wikipedia as the original source and linking to the GFDL. Do people agree that they are now largely compliant? --Robert Merkel 04:30, 11 Mar 2004 (UTC)

The site has definitely improved. However, witness all the 'summary' pages one level in from the root page (such as Coffee) still being composed largely of Wikipedia content without any acknowledgement. A sentence or two, lifted directly from Wikipedia is shown in many entries on those 'summary' pages (such as Drip brew, French press, Caffeine, etc. on the Coffee page above) yet you must click through to the full text before a Wikipedia or GFDL reference is made. A reference to Wikipedia and GFDL on all pages with even 'truncated' Wikipedia content (ie, the first few sentences of a bunch of articles) would still seem to be required. Potentially also worth mentioning is that the engine or template system used by KnowledgeGeek is used by StudioReview.com (documented on this page and supported/linked by Mark Coffman of KnowledgeGeek) and as of this writing, StudioReview has a low degree of compliance. I'm not suggesting that the owner/operator of KnowledgeGeek is able to accomplish this, but one wonders if it's possible to add compliance at an engine- or template-level for sites like this which are clearly copying Wikipedia content in huge quantities. Ds13 20:46, 2004 Mar 11 (UTC)

The remaining problems identified above seem to be addressed now. I would agree that they are largely compliant now. --Ds13 06:50, 2004 Mar 21 (UTC)

Lardydar Wiki

Sample	http://www.lardydar.com/search/wiki/index.php?title=wikipedia:About taken exactly from : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:About
Rating	Unsure. The site seems to be such a good copy, it has the disclaimer footer on every page, just like Wikipedia. However, tiny details, such as using a link as a reference, and calling it "What is it with Lardydar Wiki?", when clearly that article has nothing to do with "Lardydar" Wiki. Also, they claim: "Lardydar Wiki® is a registered trademark of the Wikimedia Foundation, Inc.", but that is because they have included the footer seen on every Wikipedia page, and simply changed "Wikipedia" into "Lardylar Wiki". Even their Contact us page is identical, leading the user to contact Wikimedia, instead. May be a valid mirror, but I could not find links to Wikipedia. Searching for the article 'Wikipedia' Comes up with the article 'Lardylar Wiki' instead, but they pronounce "Lardylar Wiki" /ˌwikiˈpeːdi.ə/, so... What bothers me most is that they have the "Donate to" Link, on the left, exactly as Wikipedia, and it leads to their Paypal account. Perhaps this is completely legal and valid, but it appears that this site takes advantage of the "feel" of Wikipedia to solicit donations that do not go to the Wikimedia Foundation.

Actions	I feel that dealing with this potentially libelous web site is probably best left to Wikimedia foundation legal counsel. -- talks_to_birds 09:47, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LincolnMortgage.info

Only a selection of pages, from all namespace of en.wp. Very random. Very odd interface.

• http://lincolnmortgage.info/
• No mention of Wikipedia or GFDL whatsoever.
• Generally only contains one paragraph of a page.

[edit] Linix Encyclopedia

• Site: Linix Encyclopedia
• Example: all content. eg. http://web.linix.ca/pedia/index.php/Africa
• this is a wiki without the main edit, history etc. links. See http://web.linix.ca/pedia/index.php/Special:Recentchanges
• no links to GFDL or Wikipedia.

[edit] literaturemania.com

• Site: literaturemania.com
• Example: [21]
• No attribution
• No GFDL notice
• No copyright information of any sort, just "ads" about "Discount Pet Supplies" and an offsite link
• Refers to Wikipedia text section as "The Project Gutenberg Encyclopedia"
• Appears to be some sort of Project Gutenberg and (non-compliant) Wikipedia mirror

[edit] liverpoolcityportal.co.uk

• Site: liverpoolcityportal.co.uk
• Example: [22]
• No attribution
• No GFDL notice
• "Copyright 2005-2006 © City Portal. All rights reserved."

Now seems to comply, having used the suggested text I sent them through the form letter. Am going to ask them to see if the copyright notice can be clarified, though. Johnleemk | Talk 12:57, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

All is in order now. Johnleemk | Talk 17:07, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

• No history section. Medium compliance. Uncle G 12:09, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LiveSeattle.com

LiveSeattle.com
URL	http://www.liveseattle.com
Sample	http://www.liveseattle.com/Default.aspx?tabid=5097
Rating	Low/None
Details	The sample page is a blatant grab of Wedgwood, Seattle, Washington (maybe not the current version, and they stripped the footnotes, but I immediately recognized User:GoDot's plodding prose.) - Jmabel
Contact info	They link to a page at http://www.livecityguides.com/Home/ContactForm/tabid/454/Default.aspx. They are pushing it "Advertise with us", but I can't see why a different sort of message couldn't be left. - Jmabel
Actions	Nothing so far

My guess given that they direct comments to a site with a more generic name is that they've done the same not just for other places in Seattle but for other cities. - Jmabel | Talk 00:18, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] localcolorart.com

Localcolorartandothers
URL	http://www.localcolorart.com

Actions	Contacted everyone. No replies from the admin. ISP contacted. -- WB 01:33, 20 January 2006 (UTC) (Admin says they did not receive email).

[edit] logicjungle.com

• Site: logicjungle.com
• Mirror of the english wikipedia
• Link to GNU FDL.
• Link to www.wikipedia.org (from the icon)
• Crediting links to original articles

We can class this is as 'well behaved' mirror. Phil from logicjungle proactively read the listing here and emailed me. I suggested some improvements to the wording of the article links, to give proper credit to wikipedia, which were quickly implemented.

If any further contact is necessary, it might as well go through me, or a I can provide a copy of the email conversation we had -- Nojer2 10:09, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Logo (A Book)

• Site: The Logo (A Book)
• Uses the article about the book: "No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies"
• Mentions Wikipedia, and provides a link to the front page
• No GFDL Link
• Looks like fair use.

• Example: http://www.widescale.com/details.php?name=AnnoDomini
• same on: http://www.interscale.com/details.php?name=AnnoDomini
• Novemver 19: Sent standard letter. --snoyes 17:05, 19 Nov 2003 (UTC)
• November 20: Now contains GFDL notice and link. Also, their text is an excerpt of approximately one paragraph, so might be fair use anyway. --Delirium 10:09, Nov 20, 2003 (UTC)
  • You're right, that is most probably fair use. Nice to see them stick a notice on it anyway. --snoyes 02:57, 22 Nov 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Lycos Retriever

• Site: www.lycos.com/retriever.html
• Example: www.lycos.com/info/tony-blair--oxford-university.html taken from Tony Blair, though not about Oxford University
• Synthesis site from large number of sources
• States: "Source: en.wikipedia.org" with link to original article
• Page ends: "Copyright © 2007 Lycos Inc. All Rights Reserved."
