Copyright violation in Ramsey Family Papers edit

 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ramsey Family Papers, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ramsey Family Papers is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ramsey Family Papers, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

  Hello.

You may also click on the signature button   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment.

alert edit

please stop adding pages to WP until we can get the copyright problems clarified according to WP:copyrightDGG (talk) 19:20, 17 October 2007 (UTC) Please see WP:DCP for the appropriate formality.The easiest solution in this case would be to add the necessary license to your own web site. But there are other problems, such as whether the subjects of the articles are notable for purposes of Wikipedia. Please get in touch with me or another administrator--You can do it by email through my user page here.DGG (talk) 19:34, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Conflict of interest edit

  If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. --Ronz 19:51, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Welcome edit

Thank you for your material: I hope you persevere and can find a way to integrate your archival material into wikipedia. As the above posts demonstrate, if you intend to add a series of articles to Wikipedia, you will need to sort copyright issues and have a consciousness of general Wikipedia policies. But please don't be put off: if you would like specific advice or encouragement then please leave a note on my talk page. Dsp13 14:25, 28 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

And another (!) specific word of advice: it would be great if pages which are added to wikipedia could be categorized. For example, I've added a couple of categories to Mary Winifred Bushakra. Dsp13 14:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Process for asserting permission to reproduce pages under the GFDL edit

Hi, I'm looking at the copyvio tag on DuMetz Family Marriage Contracts. While I have no reason to disbelieve the claim to copyright and permission, Wikipedia procedures are to ask for an email to permissions-en (at) wikimedia.org in order to verify the permission - details are on the tag. Can you please do that for those pages you have uploaded? --Alvestrand 18:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Octavia Jordan Perry edit

 

The article Octavia Jordan Perry has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

a finding aid is not an indepdent reliable secondary source. So we have not even one such source on the subject, and so no signs of notability at all.

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, 14 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
