Speedy deletion nomination of Carlos Lopes (United Nations)

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Carlos Lopes (United Nations) 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.

Hi. The United Nations' website is not public domain, I'm afraid; see its copyright page where it reserves the right to all material. It even specifies that news-related material can't be used without appropriate credit and the advisement of the UN, which is inconsistent with Wikipedia's licensing. Previously published material cannot be imported unless it is public domain or licensed compatibly with CC-By-SA and GFDL, neither of which permits requiring advising the copyright holder before reuse. The current version of the article is not a straightforward copyright violation, but does closely paraphrase the source. It needs to be rewritten if we are retain to it. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:30, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Martin Kobler

[edit]

The article Martin Kobler has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Very close paraphrase of [1]

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Airplaneman talk 14:54, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Binta Mansaray

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Binta Mansaray 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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.

Proposed deletion of Petrie charles

[edit]

The article Petrie charles 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.

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:ASG eric falt thumb.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 20:48, 26 August 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. dave pape (talk) 20:48, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

October 2010

[edit]

Your additions to Rima Khalaf, Augustine P. Mahiga, Norman Girvan, and Ameerah Haq have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. VernoWhitney (talk) 13:33, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since this is not your first problem with copyright, I should point out that while facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. The less creative the expression, the looser copyright applies, but even so close paraphrasing becomes a great concern when there are long passages that include fragments of the original and the structure of the original is retained. 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".

How to do it

[edit]

there's an easy way. you must explicitly license the rights to the material according to our licensing using the CC-BY-SA and the GNU licenses, as explained in WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:Donating copyrighted materials You probably have authority to do so, but if not, figure out who does. It has to be done formally, if at all possible before the article is written, and the "OTRS number" added as specified. Myself, I think we should accept informal assurances, but we do not. There is no other way except adding a CC-BY_SA to the page itself. Do this formal procedure even if you are going to use only part of the page, or if you are going to use a close paraphrase. Do it every time. Do it separately for every photograph. Please catch up now on the existing problems, & when you have, then do it with every new article and illustration.

When the material on the page is not straightforward description, I suggest rewriting instead, because the usual press release style is not considered suitable for an encyclopedia. If you do that, follow the excellent advice VernoWhitney just gave you. You'll still need to give a license for photographs.

And some style and content hints: revise the entries to not use the term Mr. or the equivalent. Give the name and title in full only in the first sentence. Afterwards, use the last name only--and do not use it too much--it's better to use "he" or "she" as appropriate. It is always appropriate to mention whom an official directly succeeds--if an office is notable, all the holders of the office are back to the beginning, and someone may want to write the articles at some point. For academics, we usually only list their books, not articles or other minor publications (unless they are scientists). Try to list published books in standard full bibliographic form--you can get it from WorldCat. Try to always add birthdate and birthplace. If the person is notable, you can & should add their name to the list of "notable alumni" for their colleges, and to the list of notable people from their birthplace or the city they are associated with.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mogwanja Martin

[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 Mogwanja Martin 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.

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 {{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. andy (talk) 15:18, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
