If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

The page Draft:Immortality — The Real Secret has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/shepherd-lightfoot.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been 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.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Maybe use Wikisource?

[edit]

Hi! I came here from the help desk. I have no idea of the specifics, but you may want to put those PD translations of early Christian material on Wikisource. Try to find material that is clearly in the public domain (i.e., translations made prior to 1928), and clearly document where they came from. They unquestionably belong at Wikisource. Wikisource is ideal for this because it has all the technical capabilities to track the wikisource text back to the scanned pages. This completely decouples the copyright issues from any issues of suitability of your quotations here in Wikipedia. The extent of those quotations is then a matter of editorial judgement and can be discussed on the article talk pages to reach consensus, without the distraction of the copyright (non)issue. -Arch dude (talk) 18:11, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
