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 Design of Keys and shafts 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

[edit]

Hi! I'm Manish, one of the Online Ambassadors helping clean up the India Education project.
I have noticed that your edits on Design of keys and shafts have been obviously copied from a textbook. This is a violation of copyright, not permissible on Wikipedia. Even if you cite it properly with <ref> tags (which you have done), the bottom line is that it has been copied word-to-word from another source. Here on Wikipedia, we take copyright very seriously (because of the legal issues involved). We usually read up on a topic and then write the article, sometimes paraphrasing what we have read. The only time an editor is allowed to copy-paste is when he/she is quoting something (In that case, one must use intext attributions).
For more information, refer to Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Forms_of_plagiarism_on_Wikipedia, especially the example for Copying from a source acknowledged in a well-placed citation, without in-text attribution.

For these reasons, I have blanked all text on the page. (Normally, I'd put it up for deletion, but, as you are part of the India Education Program, I'll let you fix it and then we'll see.)
I know that this is a graded project for you, and this removal may affect your grades badly. For now, start adding more information to the article (please don't just copy stuff this time, instead, read up on the topic and then write stuff).
You may undo my edit, as long as you can prove that it is not copied from a textbook. Actually, it is much better to start from scratch as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so the textbook-ish format is anyways not desired (In fact, your article might get deleted for that reason, too). You can contact me via my talk page (Click the new section button up top), or via email.

Oh, and please do not revert others' edits like you did here. When someone tags your page with a cleanup tag/etc, the tag may only be removed when the page has been cleaned up.
