Proposed deletion of Cory Bomberry

The article Cory Bomberry has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Mo ainm~Talk 15:27, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

2007 ILF World Indoor Lacrosse Championship

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of 2007 ILF World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.worldindoorlacrosse.com.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:57, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

The Top 100: NFL's Greatest Players

I deleted the list of the players you added into this article. The article previously contained that list, and was then nominated for deletion. Many of the editors in that discussion were concerned that including the entire list would violate Wikipedia's rules about copyright violations. In addition, there was no editorial support for including the entire list, which can be easily accessed by following the external link at the end of the article . The articke was kept only after the list was deleted and the article was shifted from a focus on the list to a focus on the TV series that discussed the list. Please see the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Top 100: NFL's Greatest Players. --Arxiloxos (talk) 20:27, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
