Syntax
To place this template, simply add {{Copypaste}} to the top of the suspect article or section. You may optionally include 3 arguments - one showing the date the tag was added, a second specifying whether it is an entire article or just a section that is suspect, and a third linking to the url you believe contains the original text.
For example:
{{Copypaste|section|url=http://www.example.org/|date=December 2024}}produces:
 | This section may have been copied and pasted from another location, possibly in violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. (December 2024) |
