Speedy deletion nomination of Rainbow Trust Children's Charity

A tag has been placed on Rainbow Trust Children's Charity requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —C45207 | Talk 07:56, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Rainbow Trust, etc.

I think the goals laid out by this organization are admirable. I also think they are likely notable. However, you created several articles that are all copyright violations in some form from their website. If you want to create an article about them, please read about creating your first article. Repeated recreations of copyright violating materials could lead to your account being blocked from editing. If you need advice, please contact me on my talk page.

Rainbow Trust Children's Charity's Notability

Rainbow Trust Children's Charity will probably be tagged for speedy deletion under A7 of the speedy deletion criteria because the article does not assert any notability. You'll want to include at least an assertion of notability sooner rather than later to avoid speedy deletion while you build up the page.

You may also want to review "Your first article" for some tips on creating a good article.

Thank you for taking the time to create an article without copyright violations.—C45207 | Talk 09:53, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi

I am trying to write my first article about the Rainbow Trust Children's Charity, however it seems to be speedly deleted. I have written an article in my own words but it says that it is in violation of A7. Could you please give me some advice to how i can fix this as i am new to Wikipedia. How can i make this NPO more notable?

Many thanks—Preceding unsigned comment added by T 3054799 (talk • contribs) 2009-07-29T06:19:09

To avoid A7 deletion, the article must contain some claim of notability: some reason that makes the organization worthy of its own article. Have you read the two linked pages? They explain A7 and notability.

It is hard to make something more notable; however, you can show notability by citing reliable sources that have mentioned the organization (newspaper articles about the organization, books about charities, awards of note the organization has won, &c.)

You'll also want to look at the tone of the article, which contains some passages that may be seen as promotional, such as "Donations can be submitted through the Justgiving website".

Read the Girl Scouts of the USA article, which is considered one of the very best articles on Wikipedia for advice on tone, content, form, &c.—C45207 | Talk 21:33, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
