Afro Venezuelan

edit
 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Afro Venezuelan, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.everyculture.com/South-America/Afro-Venezuelans-History-and-Cultural-Relations.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Speedy deletion of Cubans in Brazil

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Cubans in Brazil, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

It has come to my attention that this article was already deleted before. The name of the previous article was Cuban Brazilian. This is a recreation of that deleted article.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Lehoiberri (talk) 02:57, 27 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
