This article has been tagged as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) It will likely be deleted after one week unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Major contributions by contributors who have been verified to have violated copyright in multiple articles may be presumptively deleted in accordance with Wikipedia:Copyright violations.
Interested contributors are invited to help clarify the copyright status of this material or rewrite the article in original language at the temporary page linked from the article's face. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. --MER-C16:15, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Hello MER-C, please could you clarify what the copyright infringement is? I can't find a record of it anywhere. Many thanks, Srsval (talk) 16:46, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

Dear MER-C, although the page was created by an account now blocked for copyright infringement, the page is really important and should not be deleted. From a swift appraisal, it doesn't seem like there is any copyright infringement. Is there someway that it could be checked for copyright infringement rather than just deleted? I'm happy to do this if necessary. Thanks very much, Srsval (talk) 07:28, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
Both the content and the editor who wrote it are untrustworthy. Given how old the copyvio is, there is no guarantee the copyvio source is still on the web, or is a print or translated source. I'm not willing to expend community manpower on salvaging the contributions of copyright violating sockpuppeteers. I advise a rewrite from scratch at Talk:Sarah B. Pomeroy/Temp, which I will replace the article with at the expiry of the listing. MER-C10:29, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi MER-C - I've written a new page in the Temp space as suggested, and was just wondering when the listing is due to expire, so that this article can be replaced with that new page? It'd be good to get this page up and running, as she's an important figure! KateCook (talk) 10:30, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
