Wikiclones

Wikipedia clones that also include images from Commons.

Name	Caching	URL	Scan	Attribution	Notes/attribution description
Everipedia	Partial	https://everipedia.org/	files DR	BAD	(July 2018) Also see COM:Everipedia. Copies images with descriptions from Commons and fair use from English Wikipedia. Partially deeplinks, partially own cache. Compare File:Richard Matthew Stallman.jpeg and https://everipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman/31584231/. Only attribution consists of a barely visible link to the file page on Commons, no mention of author or license.
Alchetron	Yes	https://alchetron.com/	files DR	NONE	(July 2018) Wikipedia clone that inserts images and videos from various sources into articles. When an image is clicked, the text "This image may be subject to copyright." appears along with a button "Visit Page". This button, sadly, is a deeplink to the image, not the file page. While the article text is acceptably attributed, image attribution is not okay.
Mashpedia	No	http://www.mashpedia.com	files DR	OK	(July 2018) When an image is clicked, the user is directly taken to the file page on Commons.

Other

So far just accounts on stock photo sites.

Name	Type	URL	Scan	Attribution	Notes/attribution description
Alamy	Account	www.alamy.com	files DR	NONE	Various accounts do bulk import of content marked as public domain on Commons. Has been going on since at least 2013. We also have legal threats!
Flickr	Account	anna pang	files files 2 DR DR2	NONE	VPC discussion. This anna pang (no capitals mind you) shares photos on Flickr without attribution and falsely tags them "all rights reserved". File:Pica pica mauretanica1.jpg was reverse laundered here, File:Maghreb (European) Magpie, Morocco.jpg was reverse laundered here.
Granger	?	www.granger.com	files DR	COPYTHEFT	See below.
Kisspng	Anonymous uploads	www.kisspng.com	files DR	NONE	Has no regard for copyright whatsoever beyond DMCA. Anyone can upload whatever they want and work is rarely attributed. See Commons talk:How Alamy is stealing your images#kisspng.com. Examples: File:MicroV 50.svg (stolen), File:Subglacial Eruption-numbers.svg (stolen), File:Polyhedron great rhombi 12-20 max.png (stolen).
Pixabay	Account	WikimediaImages	files DR	general reference to Wikimedia in the username	Pixabay account "WikimediaImages" did bulk import of 5819 public domain images from Commons. https://pixabay.com/en/pincushion-tomato-needles-sewing-2202284/ is from File:Pincushion-Tomato.jpg, https://pixabay.com/en/vga-cable-plug-computer-technology-2202321/ is File:Vga-cable.jpg. The attribution is poor, but considering the account limits itself to public domain images which don't actually require attribution they're legally in the clear.

Do not buy.

Granger stole a CoA from Commons

• Original: File:Arms of Ordo cisterciensis.svg
• Old revision
• Granger.com selling this old revision of a file that originated from Commons (archived)

They say "Full credit: Pictures from History / Granger, NYC -- All rights reserved." and "Full Credit: CPA Media - Pictures from History / GRANGER — All rights reserved." on that page. Lies.
