Welcome!

Hello, Reesedog15, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Reesedog15/African feminism

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:Reesedog15/African feminism requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://tigekinoninufuv.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/6/134687643/wiwalumugepopovon.pdf. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

@Drm310 @User:Primefac: I think something went wrong with the copyvio detection process. That link is a spammy PDF upload site, but based on googling the file name, I assume it's a copy of "African feminism in context: Reflections on the legitimation battles, victories and reversals, Feminist Africa, 2014 (19): 7-23." by Josephine Ahikire. However, I can't find any matching text between that sandbox and the Ahikire article. Reesedog15 copied a section from the live African feminism into that sandbox, but I don't think there's any copyvio from that source in the live article either. Is there something I'm missing? --ragesoss (talk) 20:57, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

@Ragesoss: I can't see deleted content, so unfortunately I can't comment. Maybe Primefac can offer some insight. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 21:06, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

I've undeleted it so we can try to figure out what happened. ragesoss (talk) 21:12, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, my fault, for whatever reason I didn't notice/realise that it was from weebly and, by extension, likely something copied from Wikipedia. Thanks for the undelete. Primefac (talk) 08:38, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

I can't access the PDF directly, but based on what comes up from Earwig's tool, that document looks like it was largely copied from Wikipedia. ragesoss (talk) 21:16, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
