Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Panagiotis Andreou

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 Template:Panagiotis Andreou 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 http://www.labella.com/artists/panagiotis-andreou/. 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 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. -★- PlyrStar93.

Your article

edit

Hi, the template page you created has been deleted, but you can create the biography elsewhere if you still want to. See my reply to you at Template talk:Panagiotis Andreou. SarahSV (talk) 03:01, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I can't try again on wikipedia?, if i will started from the beginning?
Hi Adriana, yes, you can try again on Wikipedia. What I meant by "elsewhere" was on another page on Wikipedia. You created the article as a template, which meant it was not an article in the encyclopaedia.
But first you must find independent sources about that person. Without independent sources, the article will be deleted, because we have to be able to check that he is notable enough. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Golden rule before you start. Wikipedia:Notability is the guideline we're expected to follow.
This article would count as an independent source. You need to search for more articles like that.
If you can gather several independent sources, you can start the article at Draft:Panagiotis Andreou, or you can continue working in your sandbox, User:AdrianaO/sandbox. Those are both places you can work on it quietly. Everything in the article must have a source of some kind. You can use Andreou's own website for a few personal details (such as year of birth or education), but otherwise everything should have an independent source. Once you have a good draft ready, you can move it into the encyclopaedia. I can explain how to do that later.
The other thing you must do is tell us if someone is paying you to write the article, and if so, who. See WP:PAID, in case that applies.
I hope this information is helpful and not too overwhelming! By the way, to create your signature and timestamp, type four tildes at the end of your posts, like this ~~~~, top left on the keyboard. SarahSV (talk) 19:04, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
