Copyright problem: Cathode-Ray Tube Amusement Device[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Cathode-Ray Tube Amusement Device, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a copy from http://classicgames.about.com/od/classicvideogames101/p/CathodeDevice.htm, and therefore a copyright violation. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), versions 1.3 or later then you should do one of the following:

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Cathode-Ray Tube Amusement Device saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! scooteytalk 21:42, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Causal Theory of Knowledge[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Causal Theory of Knowledge, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.faqs.org/theories/Ca-Ch/Causal-Theory-of-Knowledge.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Speedy deletion of Causal Theory of Knowledge[edit]

...oops. I violated copyright. Since no one will read this or care about it anyway, I'm going to take this opportunity to laugh aloud at the floundering copyright system we have here. "You can take this information, and reword it anyway you want, so long as its in a different form than the one you got it in." As if the mere arrangement of words has any meaning outside of literature or art! As if the information itself is the insignificant part! Yes, some writing is original, but most encyclopedic writing did not come from the discoverer of the information itself. The whole system is backwards, broken, foolish. Confused.

I recognize why the policy is in place, and perhaps I shouldn't copy and paste dictionary entries into WP articles, but sometimes, it's absurd. A system that makes information secondary to presentation is ridiculous. With higher processing power, structure and content blur into each other anyway. When reading WP, it's not the form it comes in (although basic standards apply). It's what it says. Or so one would think... Parijata (talk) 16:38, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


A tag has been placed on Causal Theory of Knowledge 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 blatant 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 {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. ttonyb1 (talk) 02:37, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Statistical dependence[edit]

You wrote:

Statistical dependence is a condition in which two random variables are not independent. X and Y are positively dependent if the conditional probability, P(X|Y), of X given Y is greater than the probability, P(X), of X, or equivalently if P(X&Y) P(X)P(Y).

That is not correct. There's no such thing as "P(X)" if X is a random variable. That's something one would apply to an event, not to a random variable.

This appeared in the "new articles" list on the Wikipedia Mathematics Project's "current activity" page within the last 24 hours. I was surprised to find the article's been there since April. You apparently didn't add any category tags or create appropriate links to the article, as for example a link from independence (probability theory) or from the index of statistics articles.

When creating a new Wikipedia article, one should do those things to call the community's attention to its existence. Michael Hardy (talk) 16:49, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

.... OK, now I've redirected it to Independence (probability theory). Michael Hardy (talk) 16:51, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Alex Lightman[edit]

The article Alex Lightman has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

No biographical sources in cited verifiable third-party reliable sources - too risky to keep as a BLP

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.
