Speedy deletion nomination of Arun Rai (Professor)

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 Arun Rai (Professor) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://robinson.gsu.edu/profile/arun-rai/. 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 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 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 or image 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 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 removed 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.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Chaitanyasambhara, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Diannaa (talk 22:34, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Spyder (film). Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Diff: [1] Cyphoidbomb (talk) 22:35, 12 November 2017 (UTC) My edit was consistent with other articles on wikipedia such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maine_Pyar_Kiya. Please see the soundtrack section of that article. My edit was based on true facts backed with evidence. Please examine these two links to verify the claims made in my edit: Link 1: youtube link: /PoCdY_fSPU4?t=75 Link 2: youtube link: /oQwNN-0AgWc?t=33

If it is still an issue, then surely, I will refrain from such edits that I made. Please do let me know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaitanyasambhara (talk • contribs) 22:48, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Oh, I agree that it's very similar and could very well be plagiarised, but my opinion about something doesn't belong in an encyclopedia. We care what reliable published sources have to say, not random Wikipedia editors. So if you can find a source that says definitively that it is plagiarised, you could include the content if it was properly supported with references. And if a professional reviewer wrote about a similarity, you could include that, but even in that case, we'd have to be careful how we presented such an opinion, since we typically attribute opinions to specific voices, like "Music reviewer John Doe of International Business Times described the song as "unrepentant plagiarism" of the Bee Gees track "Stayin' Alive". Also, for all we know, the composers of the song paid for the rights to reproduce it. Since we don't know all the details, it would be incorrect of us to draw a conclusion about plagiarism or copyright violations. That's why we leave the conclusions up to the professionals. Hope my explanation helped. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:01, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
