[edit]

Cannot think of a responsible use of this other than for the Google Drive article. I see this being used to using original research or otherwise unreliable sources, or worse for malware/spam distribution.

Unfortunately, a number of articles are using Google Drive links as references or otherwise. I picked a random article to see how what kind of content was being used - Hyperinflation in Brazil seems to link to original research in the Google Drive link used there.

I would like to see additional input - I think it isn't a problem to use these in project or userspace, but I would say that 90% of mainspace usage would be problematic. Does the community have any other thoughts? Jon Kolbert (talk) 19:46, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Upon further reflection this would probably be best as an edit filter to limit the blacklist to mainspace and allow extended-confirmed users to use it elsewhere since spam-blacklist is for every namespace. Jon Kolbert (talk) 20:12, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Some of these seem to be historic documents - could they, should they, be transferred to archive.org ? Case in point, the NSA interview transcripts from "Rasterschlüssel 44"? DS (talk) 21:09, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I feel like that would be a more stable, reliable solution than a link to a Google Drive folder whose owner can change the contents at any point in time. Jon Kolbert (talk) 21:48, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
'Some of these seem to be historic documents' .. is this google drive the only place where they are available. I would argue that although it is certainly valuable to have a link to an online copy, it is not absolutely needed (as long as you uniquely describe the document). And if they are out of copyright (so really historic) that they could easily be incorporated into WikiSource. --Dirk Beetstra T C 13:32, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I have alerted WP:RSN to this discussion as the above comment relates to reliability. I myself support this proposal for the following reasons:
  1. It probably fails WP:ELNO#11.
  2. Some pages also fail WP:ELNO#3.
  3. It unambiguously fails the reliable sources criteria as user-generated content, and better sources are almost always available. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 22:47, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The assumption that there is a specific kind of source involved is misguided. A public, general-purpose file storage service is ambiguous. Like YouTube, it can be used for reliable sources (primary or secondary) and appropriate external links, or inappropriate ones. This is why WP:YOUTUBE gives caution but says that "Links should be evaluated for inclusion with due care on a case-by-case basis." Just the other day I cited a magazine which distributes its back issues through Google Drive. Is there widespread abuse, compared to similar sites, that would justify the drastic step of blacklisting it? Kim Post (talk) 00:29, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Kim Post: gauging abuse here is a difficult one. If 10% turns out to be (likely) copyright violations then yes, there is abuse. Abuse in the term of spamming, I don't think so (but then we would not discuss this if that was the case). I agree that the case seems similar to Youtube, but I don't know about the ratios - how many are copyright violations, how many are convenience, how many are not replaceable, etc. (noting that of the material on Youtube that is useful to Wikipedia the percentage of (likely) copyright violations is higher than the overall percentage on Youtube). --Dirk Beetstra T C 04:38, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Special:Search/insource:"drive.google.com" shows 2,550 articles currently citing Google Drive. If only 90% of mainspace usage is problematic, it means 255 articles are using Google Drive as a legitimate source, which is too high for blacklisting. If the content of the sources is appropriate, though in the best format, an edit filter showing a warning message, or having a bot to undo additions by new users, is a better approach than blacklisting the link and requiring all uses to be whitelisted. feminist (talk) 01:58, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Feminist: 'If only 90% of mainspace usage is problematic' .. only? If that 90% of the cases has roughly 20% (likely) copyright violations (the first link I clicked on was link to a personal copy of an article copyrighted by Elsevier where I would consider that this is likely/maybe out of scope of what Elsevier allows, and, obviously, there is a proper link to the proper, albeit paywalled, article) then we are talking hundreds of copyright violations. That is way too high to allow unlimited inclusion (and hence, blacklist might be appropriate). (in short: you would need a full analysis of all, not just eyeballing 10% is fine, for all you know, it is only 1% that is fine, which is something that the whitelist can easily handle). I could however agree with adding this to XLinkBot or an edit filter to step this up and reconsider blacklisting after a couple of months. --Dirk Beetstra T C 04:38, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Very much in tow minds, yes it is no different from any other storage medium, but (as others have pointed out) it might also (as a storage medium have stuff that would pass RS. At this time I lean to no.Slatersteven (talk) 09:24, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GRuban: by the Devil's advocate: so it is just as likely to contain bad content as the website of the BBC, youtube, Elsevier, or blogger? --Dirk Beetstra T C 20:30, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Respectively, no, yes, no, and yes. The point is that the BBC and Elsevier exercise editorial control. Blogger and YouTube and Google Drive do not. So, yes, most stuff on YouTube and Blogger and Google Drive don't meet our criteria as reliable sources; but some does, so we shouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater expert self-published opinions out with the overwhelming majority of self published opinion. --GRuban (talk) 21:38, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The BBC are not a storage medium, they are a creator.Slatersteven (talk) 08:54, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The BBC is a creator who stores their info on their own site, many people who are a creator and do not own an own site store it somewhere else, like on youtube, blogspot or on drive.google.com.
Exactly, Gruban. Blogger, YouTube and Google Drive do not have editorial control, and are generally unreliable. With the first 2 of those we exhibit quite strong editorial control. They are on XLinkBot, and we generally do not hesitate when abuse is so bad that material needs blacklisting (there are several blogger sites on the blacklist, and specific Youtube videos/channels. Other of those 'free storage sites' we have blacklisted, like Hulu, examiner, based on a similar discussion as this one. The question is whether the good material (material that is really needed) outweighs the bad material (rubbish, copyright violations, 'spam', etc.). The point 'no more or less likely to contain good or bad content than any other arbitrary website', this one falls well in the range of blogger, Youtube, Hulu and examiner, and I wonder whether it is just as likely to have bad material as YouTube, or just as likely to have bad material like Examiner (to pick 2). --Dirk Beetstra T C 15:46, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support At Google drive they are user-generated content. Yes, some reliable source are offline source and/or behind paywall, but it is not the reason to re-publish them under google drive as pirate copy. Also, wikipedia should not use url that point to those pirate resource. Are there any genuine source that were hosted as Google Drive? Please point it out among 8,932 entries of Google Drive currently in wikipedia as a black swan. Matthew hk (talk) 11:57, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • If you really want to collect anecdotes: out-of-print issues of C3i Magazine, a publication about wargames, are hosted on Google Drive. The official website provides these links. More to the point, the bare fact that a website is open to the public, and so could be used for bad sources or external links, is not a reason to put it on the spam blacklist. Kim Post (talk) 03:14, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Kim Post: It is not a question of could. The link used on Zohar e.g. leads to a pdf which looks like the printout of another website. That is very likely a copyright violation, also because I can find the text elsewhere. I saw another example like that earlier but it seems to have been removed. It remains a question of balance between use and abuse, and how much abuse you want to take. And in the area of spam, anything that could be abused eventually will be. --Dirk Beetstra T C 03:45, 18 July 2019 (UTC) (found the links to publications, see below --Dirk Beetstra T C 05:00, 18 July 2019 (UTC))[reply]

It gets more interesting,

in e.g. diff, diff, diff &c. links consistently to work by the same authors and in all cases links to a google-drive copy of the work of the authors (not, as is more normal, using doi or a link to the publishing papers). Now looking at the IP (which is in New York University, New York) that does overlap with the stated location of one of the three editors. Looking at the personal copy document, it state:

  • This article appeared in a journal published by Elsevier. The attached copy is furnished to the author for internal non-commercial research and education use, including for instruction at the authors institution and sharing with colleagues.
    Other uses, including reproduction and distribution, or selling or licensing copies, or posting to personal, institutional or third party websites are prohibited.
    In most cases authors are permitted to post their version of the article (e.g. in Word or Tex form) to their personal website or institutional repository.

I agree that the copyright status there is a grey area, but this is likely a case of someone promoting their work (i.e. spamming) using this website as the medium for the spam. --Dirk Beetstra T C 05:00, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • At the very least this should be on an edit filter, but actually I think it should be blacklisted. Think about it: a Google Drive document can be updated by the owner at any time, is typically not archived by the archiving services, may be in violation of copyright, and we have no proof that it's an authentic copy of the material even if it's not. Oh, and several document types allow for infection with malware, which typically gets screened out by reputable online sources. Any original papers should be identified by DOI reference not by links to personal copies on file sharing platforms, and academics almost always have the ability to upload to space within their institution's own website. Linking to Google Drive, OneDrive and the like seems like an open invitation for abuse. Guy (Help!) 09:56, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing this was a false positive? ---Avatar317(talk) 23:11, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Avatar317: no, the spamvertizers (declared paid editing ring) also had a close connection to the subject econlib and edited and created pages related to econlib. Maybe not part of the paid editing, but definite conflict of interest. FYI, except for the encyclopedia (which is whitelisted) all information is full text available from other libraries, and in many cases even from WikiSource. --Dirk Beetstra T C 04:09, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Avatar317, I fixed this. It was an absolutely standard example of the genre: a public domain work, linked to the right-wing think tank, and listed as being published by them. That last bit of deceptive attribution is very common, I have found and removed hundreds, often to very well known works like Gibbon's Decline And fall Of The Roman Empire. In this case the full text is available at Gutenberg, and the publisher is not the Orwellian-titled "Library of Economics and Liberty" but John Murray, of London. I don't think there were many right-wing think tanks operating in 1817, and this one certainly wasn't. Guy (Help!) 07:18, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
