Another question: a new user created the article [[Raheem Kassam]] today, but in their edit summary stated that they copied the article from a Wikipedia article that was recently deleted. Do our copyright rules still apply for deleted articles? --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 16:53, 6 October 2016 (EDT)

:I see no reason why they would not apply. Do we know if Mtj wrote that page, or has permission from those who did? Deleted or not, it's still plagiarism if the writer(s) didn't consent to it being posted here. Thanks for pointing this out! --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 16:59, 6 October 2016 (EDT)
