Welcome!

Hello, Percyluisgarcia, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Harrie Vredenburg, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I was not aware of the rules, and I tried to create it fast. I apologize for that. I will change the content using my own words and following the rules. I would appreciate a few minutes to edit the created page.

Sorry, by mistake I deleted the 'Speedy deletion tag' My apologies.

{{hangon}} I am correcting the mistakes, I am learning more on how to write wiki pages. I am using my own words to write this page and avoid copyright problems. {{helpme}} Help you with what? You need to ask a question ... (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 18:06, 1 February 2010 (UTC) {{helpme}} thanks for responding BWilkins. I created a bio of a living person using my own words, and for some reason, it has been deleted. Could you please take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrie_Vredenburg and tell me what is wrong with this profile? Sorry for taking your time... but I find Wikipedia a little bit complicated and confused to follow, it is not friendly. I may be wrong. Thanks![reply]

Wikipedia is easy: every article must have reliable sources, avoid puffery and weasel words, and ensure that the person is notable, and that the references show this. The article that you have written has zero sources, a lot of "puffery", and no real notion of proven notability. An article - especially a biography of a living person - cannot stay on Wikipedia without those things. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 19:19, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your comments! I will re-write the bio. Regards!

A tag has been placed on Harrie Vredenburg 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.

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, 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.
