Your edit to Draft:Sandbox has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for information on how to contribute your work appropriately. For legal reasons, Wikipedia strictly cannot host copyrighted text or images from print media or digital platforms without an appropriate and verifiable license. Contributions infringing on copyright will be removed. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. You copy-pasted content from https://www.kirstymitchell.art/about/ which is not OK, even when testing your editing. Please don't do that again, though you may use your own form of words when creating content, of course. Nick Moyes (talk) 10:29, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:RobBlakemore/sandbox

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 User:RobBlakemore/sandbox 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.kirstymitchell.art/about/. 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.

Kirsty Mitchell (artist) moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Kirsty Mitchell (artist). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it is promotional and reads like an advertisement and you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 15:26, 28 September 2024 (UTC)

Kirsty Mitchell back on mainspace

Hi there, RobBlakemore, and thank you for creating Kirsty Mitchell (artist). I've done quite a bit of editing on the article to bring it up to basic Wikipedia standards. The most serious problem was copy violations (see Wikipedia:Copyright violations). You had included several lengthy passages which coincided almost exactly with what you had found in other sources. These needed to be rewritten. As the overall tone of the article was promotional, I removed the exotic language bringing it down to a more neutral level. If you intend to create more biographies of women, you might like to join WikiProject Women in Red where we are trying to improve the coverage of women on Wikipedia. You can sign up under "New registrations" on Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/New members. Happy editing! (cc Hoary)--Ipigott (talk) 11:53, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
