Articles for deletion nomination of George Lee (British politician)

edit

I have nominated George Lee (British politician), an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/George Lee (British politician). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 21:27, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi Majones. I've no doubt that Chase me's nomination for deletion was in good faith, but I think it is clear that George Lee is notable - I went to look him up and was astonished to find he had been deleted - so I've recreated the article in Userspace and done some work on it. Please come and edit it some more if you like and we can take it to deletion review and get it back in Wikipedia I hope. NBeale (talk) 13:04, 14 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi Majones. Thank you for your earlier edits on George Lee (British politician). I decided to WP:Be Bold and move it into mainspace. A new editor has objected and tried to AfD it, but doesn't quite understand how to. Since I know George I should step back from making edits - I thought they were non-controversial but clearly not - but perhaps you could visit the page and give an objective view? Many thanks.

File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:George Lee Holborn St Pancras PPC.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 21:29, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply


File source problem with File:George Lee in Police.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:George Lee in Police.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:51, 24 January 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 10:51, 24 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Majones1987. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Richard Harrington (politician), you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations.

I presume, given the studio photo you've uploaded and for which you've claimed authorship, that you are the M Jones mentioned in :

"Richard Harrington MP Secures £50million for Croxley Rail Link". Richard Harrington Working Hard for Watford. 7 July 2014. Retrieved 2 July 2015., "Promoted by M Jones on behalf of R Harrington of 30 The Avenue, Watford, WD17 4NS".

Think very carefully about what you do on Wikipedia. Hint: Grant Shapps#Alleged Wikipedia editing Bazj (talk) 19:32, 2 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Richard Harrington MP 2015.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Richard Harrington MP 2015.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jon Kolbert (talk) 05:56, 7 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
