This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of David Charles Manners, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.reportagepress.com/authors-name.php?author=25. 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. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:31, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Notability of David Charles Manners

A tag has been placed on David Charles Manners requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 72.93.78.209 (talk) 15:32, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

External Links and Spam

Hi there. Thanks for your work regarding authors affiliated with Reportage Press. I have noticed that several of the references you have added to articles are actually links to websites that are selling books. Please note that Wikipedia guidelines prohibit this sort of linking, per this guideline. So, links to amazon or the reportage website are out. They will be removed by editors over time, but it would really be better if you removed them yourself. Also, you still have to establish notability (by Wikipedia standards) for some of these authors' articles to continue to exist here. This guideline will show you what constitutes notability for people here, and how to establish it. Remember to reference reliable, secondary sources. That is, international, national, or even regional coverage of the author in a verifiable publication that is not affiliated with the subject. Also, if you yourself are affiliated with Reportage Press, please read this guideline regarding editing when you have a conflict of interest.

Speedy deletion of Christopher Othen

A tag has been placed on Christopher Othen 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.

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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 12:04, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ros Wynne-Jones

The article Ros Wynne-Jones has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not meet notability criteria

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 09:01, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
