- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page to follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons' policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring and sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Kim Rudd, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.nqwliberals.ca/nqwliberals/biography.html.
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. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.
If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:32, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
Regarding Kim Rudd
[edit]I saw the note you left on the talk page of Kim Rudd. I deleted the page because it was a copyright infringement of this page. You cannot copy and paste text from other sites, as that infringes upon copyrights. Articles should be written from scratch, and any information used should cite a reliable source.
Another note: when you reply to a message someone leaves on your user talk page, please reply on your own user talk page or theirs. I saw your helpme was trying to draw User:Cirt's attention. If you want to talk to that user, simply leave a message on User talk:Cirt. – GorillaWarfare talk • contribs 03:45, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
Deleted Page
[edit]![]() | This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can , contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse. |
A page of mine was deleted by an editor, I don't understand why. His explaination is above however the website he said was a copyright is not the original website, how do I prove this?
(~~User:Dwakely~~)
- It was last updated in March 23, 2010. And even if it was not the original website, saying that implies that it was taken from a website. That is also still not acceptable. Besides, the text itself, as it stands, is not neutral and has no inline references. Wikipedia can not be used for promotional purposes. Being a Biography of a living person, they would have been deleted anyway. The best thing you can do now is to rewrite the article as a userspace draft and reword the text. Reference the information to reliable and independent sources, and avoid a biased/subjective/non-neutral tone.
- Please read this for the policy by which it was deleted under: Wikipedia:Copyvio --Obsidi♠nSoul 05:10, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
Advice to recreate an article
[edit]Hi Dwakely,
Many new users face this problem. If you would like to create a stub which will remain on Wikipedia, there are a number of things you can do.
1. As of now, you can recreate it in Userspace as User:Dwakely/Kim Rudd.
2. Add references to it. This is a must to show it is notable. This is really vital.
Useful reference can be added inline. At the bottom of the article be sure to add this wikitext also:
==References==
<references/>
3. Add a stub to it. I recommend {{Canada-politician-stub}}.
4. Add a category/categories to it. I recommend Category:People from Northumberland County, Ontario and Category:Ontario politicians.
5. Submit it through Articles for Creation.
Hope this helps!

The article Kim Rudd 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. Zachlipton (talk) 02:45, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
