Speedy deletion nomination of Andi Land

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 Andi Land requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Dori ☾Talk ☯ Contribs☽ 02:36, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Grabags. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Andi Land, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Morbidthoughts (talk) 14:47, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Andi Land

First off, there's no need to submit a "written affidavit" to me or anyone that you are unassociated with Andi Land (and I'm not even sure how you would do that). Your appearance of conflict of interest is due to the fact that you uploaded personal images of her dating back to 2004 while claiming them as your own work, which you now say they are not. Fine. But as you may have noted, I've raised this issue on the Commons because I think your free use license for all these images is therefore invalid, and you may have to provide some documentation there that you have been given permission to freely license them, as you are doing. I'll watch this talk page, you can reply here if you wish Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:58, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

And I see that they have indeed all been deleted as copyright violations. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Gallery (magazine) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
