Fenwick & West

edit

Fenwick & West has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this is more of an advertisement than an encyclopedia article. Please review WP:CORP for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the prod notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. NickelShoe 16:22, 24 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hastings professor bios

edit

Hi. I've noticed that you've posted a number of bios for law professors that appear to be copied and pasted from the Hastings website. Unfortunately, this may be a copyright violation, and these pages may need to be removed - if you can either provide documentation that you have permission to use this information (which the school might be willing to provide) or sufficiently rewrite these articles so that they aren't infringing on the school's copyright, that would be great. See WP:COPYREQ for more information, and feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any further questions. Thanks! Perel 08:09, 30 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

The Hastings site does say at the bottom

 © 2006 Hastings College of the Law, 200 McAllister St. San Francisco, CA 94102

and we are bound by that. If you could rewrite them that would be great - your contributions are much appreciated, we just have to keep everything legal. Perel 08:17, 30 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello Ttau. Please be aware that all copyright matters are taken seriously, and that these articles are in the process of being deleted. As Perel has mentioned, we welcome your contributions, so long as they are your contributions and not copied from somewhere else. Feel free to contact me as well if you have any questions.

A tag has been placed on Free Food For Millionaires, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

This article does not assert the notability of this book.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Realkyhick 01:15, 1 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Free Food For Millionaires

edit

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Free Food For Millionaires, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Attack

edit
 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on this page, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because the article is a page created primarily to disparage its subject or a biography of a living person that is controversial in tone and unsourced, where there is no neutral point of view version in the history to revert to. (CSD G10).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting the article, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate the article itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. CSDWarnBot (talk) 14:00, 9 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Unreferenced BLPs

edit

  Hello Ttau! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 272 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

  1. Garon Tsuchiya - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL
  2. Roger Park - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Speedy deletion nomination of Fenwick & West

edit
 

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 Fenwick & West 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.
