Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Professor Peter Stone OBE[edit]

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 Draft:Professor Peter Stone OBE requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.ncl.ac.uk/sacs/staff/profile/peterstone.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 will most likely 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.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

No one responded to your final question before it was archived but see WP:NCDAB and WP:AT. We don't give articles names like you suggested.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 17:19, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vchimpanzee&nbsp may I ask whether at least it would be possible to change it in Peter G. Stone (professor)? The G. must be present as this is his name! and he's known as a professor rather than an archaeologist. Thank you very much

Only if the G. is always used. All you need is enough information to distinguish him from other Peter Stones.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 21:39, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vchimpanzee thank you very much, Yes the G. is always used in his publications. Can I ask you how can I modify the title? Because I tried but it seems I can't. Thank you very much.

It depends on how new you are. You have obviously been a member more than four days and you probably had more than ten edits. At the top of the screen it will say "More" and a menu will give you a list of options including "Move". To see what to do go to WP:MOVE.

Although the text of the article doesn't say Peter G. Stone anywhere, so I wouldn't recommend it.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 14:04, 11 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
