Your submission at Articles for creation: Olfactory Art (November 5)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted information, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.

This submission appears to be taken from https://www.academia.edu/4608919/Historical_Overview_of_Olfactory_Art_in_the_20th_Century. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly exists under a compatible licence and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure.

You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

Draft:Olfactory Art may be deleted at any time unless the copied text is removed. Copyrighted work cannot be allowed to remain on Wikipedia.

This submission has now been cleaned of the above-noted copyright violation and its history redacted by an administrator to remove the infringement. If re-submitted (and subsequent additions do not reintroduce copyright problems), the content may be assessed on other grounds.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Olfactory Art[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 Draft:Olfactory Art requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from https://www.academia.edu/4608919/Historical_Overview_of_Olfactory_Art_in_the_20th_Century. 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 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 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 or image 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 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 removed 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.

I'm an olfactory art specialist trying to start a Wikipedia entry for Olfactory Art, so far a glaring omission on Wikipedia in terms of art. I started with a paper I wrote on the topic as part of my postgraduate research. First, my submission was declined for copyright violation; so I worked with the admin who deleted it, Diannaa, to grant Wikipedia permission to copy the material. The admin then restored it and put a note clarifying that "This submission has now been cleaned of the above-noted copyright violation and its history redacted by an administrator to remove the infringement. If re-submitted (and subsequent additions do not reintroduce copyright problems), the content may be assessed on other grounds." But then a tag was placed on the draft requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. Could you please remove it? I'm trying to offer my own research and expertise as a basis for a non-existent but much needed Wikipedia article, yet I seem to be caught in a vicious cycle of bureaucracy and absurdity! Thanks.

Wikipedia does have more than its fair share of bureaucracy, but we do try, those of us who review drafts, to help as much as we can. So you will be disappointed that I declined your treatise just now and pushed it back to you

I shall try to explain.

We are the repository that records what others report. We do it in what we intend to be a very dull manner. Your draft as it stands today is "too interesting" in that it is written as a logical progression, a story. It may even draw conclusions. The former is almost OK, but your work is too chatty to be our style. That's ok, every media outlet has a house style. Ours is one folk need to adapt to. I know you can adapt.

The drawing of conclusions is a big no-no, though. YOU can. WE cannot. Now, if the paper that started this all off is a peer reviewed paper, then we can record that, and use it as a reference to the conclusion that IT states, but WE may not draw the conclusion ourselves. How arcane is that? Fiddle Faddle 23:38, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
