- India–Lithuania relations (history · last edit · rewrite): the lead, "Economic relations", and "Indian diaspora in Lithuania" are total to almost total copies of "India Lithuania Relation" from the Embassy of India, Vilnius, Lithuania website. Their Copyright Policy prohibits reproduction of published material without explicit permission. The policy allows referring to their website (i.e. as a source), but the copyvio report shows that sections were just outright copy and pasted. The rest of the article (remaining three sections, that is) looks fine. — EmoryNB (they/them) talk contribs 06:21, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

Article cleaned, revision deletion requested. Ordinarily would fall under WP:LIMITED, but I don't think it can when it's half of the article, and the last sentence of WP:LIMITED, "Note, however, that closely paraphrasing extensively from a non-free source may be a copyright problem, even if it is difficult to find different means of expression. The more extensively we rely on this exception, the more likely we are to run afoul of compilation protection." Tenshi! (Talk page) 15:48, 3 August 2026 (UTC)
