Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Richard E. Aaron

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 Draft:Richard E. Aaron requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.rockpix.com/about-1. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 deleted 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.

Copyright violations

I note that you have twice tried to create an article about the same person. In each case, you have copied far too much information directly from other reference sources that are copyrighted. This is a serious problem, because Wikipedia articles must be written in a way that makes it re-usable by other people, and that is not possible if it includes copyrighted material. In this case, nearly entire sentences were copied, and that is not acceptable. As an experienced editor, I know it can be difficult to write an article that accurately conveys information without repeating what someone else had written before. You may find it easier to use as many reference sources as possible. I hope this is helpful. Risker (talk) 04:30, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Do you mind helping me? I need to create this Wikipedia page as I represent this client. The biography is ours that we created and from our website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnLogan77 (talk • contribs)

You need to be aware of a few things first:

1. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Its articles cover notable topics - this is, of interest to the world at large over a period of time. We use evidence from reliable and independent sources to gauge this interest.
2. Articles about people must pass Wikipedia's notability criteria for people, and if the person is present alive, Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons.
3. Wikipedia has no interest in what the subject of an article wants to say about themselves. This is not social media, nor a vehicle for promotion or publicity where the subjects get to write about themselves. We only care about what writers from reliable, unaffiliated sources have said.
4. As you represent this person, you must follow Wikipedia's mandatory and non-negotiable policy on paid editing disclosure. You must clearly identify any article you write on behalf of a client, and who it paying you to do so.
5. You will not have ownership or editorial control over the article's content. Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and anyone can edit any article at any time.
6. You cannot post copyrighted material on Wikipedia, even if you are the copyright holder or have the copyright holder's permission, unless special licensing permissions are in place. In short, a copyright owner cannot offer Wikipedia a one-time license for use. Rather, the copyright to the material has to be released – permanently and irrevocably – into the public domain or under a free copyright license that is compatible with Wikipedia's licenses. This is because Wikipedia aims to be freely distributable and copyable by anyone, so all content must be licensed for that purpose. You can learn more about this policy at Wikipedia:Copyrights.
