Speedy deletion nomination of Scott Cullather
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Scott Cullather, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Triplestop (talk) 05:32, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

This account has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet of Morning277 (talk · contribs · global contribs · page moves · user creation · block log) that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Thank you for admitting that you are a hired contractor "posting articles according to someone else's instructions". Your employers should have told you that this is not permitted on Wikipedia - see WP:Conflict of interest and the WP:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, particularly the section "Paid contract editors" under Types of COI. That guideline sets out rules of engagement for editors with a COI; but the group of paid editors identified by the name "Morning277" after one of their earlier accounts have chosen to avoid disclosure and try to fly under the radar by creating new accounts for every client. More than 300 such accounts have been identified so far. This sort of thing is a very serious threat to the integrity of Wikipedia, and accordingly the Morning277 group have been formally banned, which entails automatic deletion of all their articles.
I have blocked your account as a "sockpuppet" of Morning277, because the policy on WP:Sockpuppetry provides that "when there is uncertainty whether a party is one user with sockpuppets or several users with similar editing habits they may be treated as one user with sockpuppets"; since your chosen subjects are articles formerly created by Morning277 socks, you are identified with that group.
