The Infringement Assistant (IA, not to be confused with Internet Archive or Interface administrator) allows users to graphically hide a page (or sections of a page) for suspected copyright violations, and automatically report the page to the current Copyright problems noticeboard. For copyright clerks and other interested editors, it also allows a user to quickly respond to a given noticeboard listing based on the preset responses at Template:CPC.

Installation

[edit]

IA is loaded as part of Deputy, but you can also install a standalone version without Deputy if you wish to save up on bandwidth. Compared to the Attribution Notice Template Editor, IA is significantly smaller and does not require a compact loader.

Standalone

[edit]

To install the script, add this to your common.js file.

mw.loader.load( '/w/index.php?title=User:Chlod/Scripts/Deputy/InfringementAssistant.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' ); // Backlink: [[User:Chlod/Scripts/Deputy/InfringementAssistant.js]]

Deputy

[edit]

See Wikipedia:Deputy § Installation for instructions on installing Deputy.

Usage

[edit]

Reporting

[edit]

IA will append an "Infringement Assistant" toolbox link on your sidebar (Vector, Timeless). When clicked, the single-page workflow dialog is shown, where a user can provide information on a page's suspected copyright violations. A user can choose to hide the entire page (in cases where most of the page is a suspected copyright violation) or sections of it. Aside from this, they can also provide URLs or explanatory text noting why a page is a suspected copyright violation or not.

The user is provided two final options: Hide content only and Submit. Submitting will hide the selected parts of a page and add its listing onto the current day's noticeboard subpage. Choosing to only hide content will suppress reporting, in cases where the user wishes to report manually or in bulk.

Clerking

[edit]

On Wikipedia:Copyright problems and all related subpages, [respond] links will appear beside each valid listing. When clicked, the user is given options to reply to a listing with predetermined text or with their own comments.

As of now, this feature is unrestricted. It may be restricted in the future, depending on the results of the script's trial period.
