Speedy deletion nomination of File:Mercedesbass.jpeg

edit
 

A tag has been placed on File:Mercedesbass.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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.

please stop

  Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Peter Dutton. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Reyk YO! 11:38, 13 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Malcolm Turnbull. . Seriously, stop with the xenophobic rubbish. Reyk YO! 11:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

You need to add a reference

Bolt

What I wrote was an accurate reflection of his opinions. You obviously aren’t Australian and know nothing about the man. Colindouglas1954 (talk) 13:29, 25 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
