Speedy deletion nomination of Talib al-Habib

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Talib al-Habib 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 or group of people, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

A tag has been placed on Talib al-Habib requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. 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 as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 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.

re Talib al-Habib

edit

Hi Black Jinn - I have responded to a request from another user to protect the article you created on Talib al-Habib. This is because the article has been created three times in the course of two days, and each time has had problems which caused it to be quickly deleted. The article title will be protected from re-creation unless or until these problems have been resolved.

  • The article was a copyright violation of a page on the website nasheedsnow.com. Wikipedia cannot accept material which is copyrighted by others as it could cause legal issues, and is against our committment to provide freely licensed material.
  • The article did state why the subject was significant. As I'm sure you understand, there are many new articles created on Wikipedia every day. We have policies and guidelines to help editors decide which subjects are suitable for an encyclopaedia; the one which applies in this case is WP:MUSIC, which outlines criteria musicians should meet before they have an article on Wikipedia. Generally, an individual will need to have been covered significantly in several independent reliable sources, such as magazines or newspapers, in order for an article to be retained. If you know that there are sources, they would be useful in looking again at the article.

If you believe that an article could be written which meets our guidelines, you can contact me, or request unprotection of the article title. If you need help or advice in creating an article, you can ask at the Help Desk. Hope this information is useful, --Kateshortforbob talk 14:25, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
