Speedy deletion nomination of Clarence McDonald

edit
 

If 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 Clarence McDonald requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ttonyb (talk) 00:46, 7 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Clarence McDonald

edit
 

The article Clarence McDonald has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. ttonyb (talk) 01:59, 7 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Clarence McDonald

edit

  Your addition to Clarence McDonald has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. ttonyb (talk) 02:15, 18 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Jay Sean

edit

I undid most of your changes because they conflicted with multiple Wikipedia policies, and failed to summarize the article. Such basic information as his name was removed and replaced with a list of chart positions. Our biography of Jay Sean is just that: a biography of Jay Sean. It is not a summary of his music career, nor is it a venue for promotion of his career as an artist. If you are editing at the direct request of his management, you are in violation of our conflict of interest guideline. Please do not edit the article directly. Instead, place requests for changes at Talk:Jay Sean, and, if other editors are persuaded that your recommendations are actually improvements, they may include them in the article.—Kww(talk) 21:14, 20 March 2012 (UTC)Reply


There's no method of contacting Wikipedia directly, and you need to understand that no matter what edits you make, others can undo them or make changes to the article. It's not Jay Sean's article, it's Wikipedia's article about Jay Sean. If you object to some of the things in the article, discuss your objections at Talk:Jay Sean. If you want material included, suggest the addition at Talk:Jay Sean. If there's material that you consider to be false and you cannot make progress, we have a special noticeboard for that named WP:BLP/N, which gets the attention of editors that specialize in articles that are biographies of living people.—Kww(talk) 10:13, 21 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Mitchell Niemeyer

edit
 

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Mitchell Niemeyer, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.mitchellniemeyer.com/site/?page_id=22.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 15:19, 22 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
