Speedy deletion nomination of Jeffrey Robinson, Ph.D.

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 Jeffrey Robinson, Ph.D. 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, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. ttonyb (talk) 04:52, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Re Jeffrey Robinson, Ph.D.

On the talk page you noted:

This information comes Dr. Robinson's official biographical and appears several places on-line with similar words because it describes his position and duties and accolades. Many of the details have been verified though other reputable websites and are duly referenced.

However, the official biography is under copyright. While we can extract facts and use them in our own words, we cannot either copy or even write a Close paraphrasing of the original. I realize you have reworded it slightly, but it is generally not a good idea to copy and paste and then edit. It invariably ends up too close to the original. It is better to review multiple sources (which you need anyway), read them, and then write something in your own words.

I considered whether I could simply remove the problematic phrases, but the result would not be a standalone article, so I urge you to start over.

You did a fair amount of work tracking down references. If you would like to save them, I'll figure out a way. Just let me know.--SPhilbrickT 13:57, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
