Speedy deletion nomination of Sultan Tarlacı
editIf 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 Sultan Tarlacı 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 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. 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. jsfouche ☽☾Talk 06:45, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
- I have declined the speedy deletion nomination, because I think the article makes enough assertion of importance or significance. However, everything in Wikipedia must be verifiable from reliable sources, and in particular an article about a living person which is unreferenced for ten days will be deleted. The formal notice of this is below:
The article Sultan Tarlacı 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. JohnCD (talk) 11:51, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
Your user name, and Conflict of Interest
editYou do not need to worry about the warning messages above, I declined the top one (speedy deletion) and the second one was only given because the article had no references - I found one, and now others have been added.
However I am concerned about your user name. Wikipedia accounts must be for individuals only, who are personally responsible for them, and usernames which are names of organizations are not permitted. Your user name might seem to indicate that the account belongs to the journal, not to a person. To avoid trouble, it would be best if you apply to change your username to one which cannot be mistaken for that of an organization. You can do that at WP:CHU - click on the word Simple near the bottom of the page.
Even if you change your username, in editing about your journal or about Dr. Tarlaci you have a WP:Conflict of interest, and should carefully read that guideline and WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

Sultan Tarlacı
editI did not realise that this article was a copyright violation, and had been deleted twice before as a copyright violation. I copy below a message which was placed on the article's talk page:
==Continuing copyright issues==
The article Sultan Tarlacı began in its first incarnation as a copy of [1], and I'm afraid it remains an unusable unauthorized derivative work of that source. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following:
Sultan Tarlacı was born in Rize, Turkey in 1970. He finished medical school in 1995 and specialized in neurology in 2000. He was awarded a Research Encouragement Award by the Society of Brain Research in 2000, a Research Encouragement Award by TUBITAK Society of Brain Research in 2001, and the Sedat Simavi Health Sciences Award by the Society of Turkish Journalists in 2003.
The source says:
Dr. Tarlacı is born in Rize, in 1970. He finished medical school in 1995 and specialized in neurology in 2000. He is awarded Research Encouragement Award by the Society of Brain Research in 2000, Research Encouragement Award by TUBITAK Society of Brain Research in 2001 and Sedat Simavi Health Sciences Award by the Society of Turkish Journalists in 2003.
There are other passages that similarly follow too closely. Overall, the article seems to be reproduced from that source with minimal alteration.
While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that it will not constitute a derivative work, this article should be rewritten in the temporary space that is now linked from the article's front. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".
Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.
Please let me know at my talk page if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:29, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Wikipedia cannot show copyright material unless a release has been made as explained above. I have replaced the article with a redirect to the article Neuroquantology so that anyone looking up Dr Tarlacı will be directed there.
If you want to have a separate article about Dr Tarlacı, you must either arrange a copyright release, as explained above (note that just asserting permission to use is not sufficient), or you must write the text in your own words, different enough from that source to avoid any copyright infringement.
It is clear from your username that you have a WP:Conflict of interest; you should therefore not post a new article yourself, but should prepare it in your user space at User:Neuroquantology/Sultan Tarlacı and then apply at WP:Articles for creation.
