Speedy deletion nomination of Middleton Archaeological Society edit

Hello Adelphi14,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Middleton Archaeological Society for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 15:57, 19 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Pete Lyon edit

 

Hello, Adelphi14. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Pete Lyon".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Pete Lyon}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Speedy deletion nomination of Francesca ‘Fanny’ Silvestrini 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 Francesca ‘Fanny’ Silvestrini requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Speedy deletion nomination of (Franklin Thomas Grant Richards) 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 (Franklin Thomas Grant Richards) 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.doaks.org/resources/bliss-tyler-correspondence/annotations/grant-richards. 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.

I imagine that it's already clear to you by now, but just in case: we don't allow any copying of copyright material from external sources into Wikipedia. The Oxford DNB – this article, for example – is copyrighted. The original Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900 is not; if you copy from there, you must provide attribution of your source. If any of this isn't clear, please ask! (here on this page is fine). Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:15, 14 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Copyright problem: Lega Zambelli edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Lega Zambelli, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images from either web sites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from https://www.questia.com/library/journal/1P4-1985562304/byron-s-fletcher-and-byron-s-lega, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries for a template of the permissions letter the copyright holder is expected to send.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Lega Zambelli saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.

Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:07, 16 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

At this point it would be very helpful if you would identify, here on this page, any other article where you may have copied content from external sources. Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:07, 16 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Farmiloe edit

You may consider submitting the draft. Be aware that I removed two refs because when I went to the refs I could not find any mention of the content in the article that the refs were supposed to be supporting. Is the content there, at parts of the websites I could not find? I did replace one ref (about her brother) with what appears to be a valid ref. David notMD (talk) 11:03, 3 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
