Speedy deletion nomination of Long Wittenham Athletic

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Long Wittenham Athletic 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 blatant 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, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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.

Long Wittenham

edit

The infobox at the beginning of an article about a place has a space in which to insert one weblink to that place's official website. In the case of a village or parish that will normally be the parish council. Other weblinks that are directly relevant to that place may be placed in an "External links" section near the end of the article. Long Wittenham already had a link to Long Wittenham Athletic's website in its "External links" section. Your addition of an identical link to the infobox was unconstructive and inappropriate so I have deleted it. Motacilla (talk) 00:31, 28 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
