I recently emailed IG's DMCA takedown agent at the address IP@instagram.com I compiled a list of about 25/35 examples of direct copy and pasting with the originals and the links to wikipedia and DC Wikia. I received an email back today with this answer;

'However, for us to process a report alleging infringement or violation of legal rights, that report would need to come from someone authorized to act on behalf of the rights owner. If you believe others' rights may be infringed by content on the site, you may wish to contact the rights owner directly.'

I'm going to reply anyway and fight my corner, as I believe that since wikipedia uses so many different authors and editors that there doesn't have to be one person, but someone who that speaks for all. I can give it a go anyway.

She will delete Jamie's comment because she doesn't care and she is scared of her followers realising she's done something wrong. If you look back in her timeline she originally was paraphrasing work from wiki, but then just went in for blatant copy and paste of whole sections. She has carried on doing this even when all this came out, even though her followers were asking about it. She thinks she is doing nothing wrong, and says it is legal.

If Jamie would like the examples I have I would happily forward him the email I sent to IG, and maybe he wants to edit it and send it himself?
