Possible copyright violation?

This article appears to contain copyrighted material from the Internet Movie Database.

If this is not copyright violation, then it is close paraphrasing (and so are previous revisions of the article, as I had to delete a section recently which contained information on his appearance, which was irrelevant). Almost all information has been obtained from the IMDB website.

I look forward to a reply on this matter.

Hi, Chesnaught555! I didn't find any serious copyvio here (plenty of unreferenced BLP content, but that's another matter). Sites such as this one, which the Earwig tool throws up as a copyvio for some versions of the page, are copied from Wikipedia. Do you want be more specific about the content you thought was copyvio, or are you now satisfied that the issue is resolved? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:20, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Justlettersandnumbers - I actually completely forgot about the whole Bobby Lockwood thing until the recent IP edits which resolved the copyvio issues. Thanks for sorting it out, I am satisfied that the issue is resolved. Best, --Ches (talk) 13:26, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest

At least one major contributor to this article appears to have a close personal or professional connection to the topic, and thus to have a conflict of interest. Conflict-of-interest editors are strongly discouraged from editing the article directly, but are always welcome to propose changes on the talk page (i.e., here). You can attract the attention of other editors by putting {{request edit}} (exactly so, with the curly parentheses) at the beginning of your request, or by clicking the link on the lowest yellow notice above. Requests that are not supported by independent reliable sources are unlikely to be accepted.

Please also note that our Terms of Use state that "you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation." An editor who contributes as part of his or her paid employment is required to disclose that fact. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:11, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problem removed

Prior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. The material was copied from: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1225475/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm. Copied or closely paraphrased material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.)

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or published material; such additions will be deleted. Contributors may use copyrighted publications as a source of information, and, if allowed under fair use, may copy sentences and phrases, provided they are included in quotation marks and referenced properly. The material may also be rewritten, providing it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Therefore, such paraphrased portions must provide their source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with these policies. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:29, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
