Speedy deletion nomination of File:Financial outcomes for immigrants.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Financial outcomes for immigrants.jpg 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 text or images taken 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 the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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.

DYK for Immigrant paradox

On 5 December 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Immigrant paradox, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that, despite being affected by poverty, language barriers, and prejudice, first-generation immigrants have better health outcomes than subsequent generations by way of the immigrant paradox? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Immigrant paradox. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Immigrant paradox), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
