Speedy deletion nomination of Camacho Cigars

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 Camacho Cigars 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 clear 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Your questions…

On User talk:DoriSmith, you wrote:

I just noticed that my article on Camacho was deleted for copyright infringement very soon after the new Camacho website was launched. I am the author for both the wiki article and the camacho website content in question for being copied. While I am not an employee of Camacho, I remain the author, and can also get any permission needed by Camacho. Being new to Wiki, I'm not sure as to what I need to do or get in order to get the article back up. I know we need to add the site as a reference now that it's launched with my content on it. Beyond that, what should I do? The research I did has left me pretty confused.

At Talk:Camacho Cigars, you wrote:

I noticed the speedy deletion nomination for my Camacho Cigars article was due to copyright concerns. I am the author of the content for both the wiki entry and the Camacho Cigars website, but I do not work for Camacho Cigars. I can, however, obtain permission from Camacho to use the copy on their site for this wiki article if in fact, the fact that I wrote it is not enough. I am also happy to now add the Camacho site as a source on the article, as their new site with that content was just launched.

Please let me know what needs to be done moving forward, so that we can get this article back up.

The answer to both is above, where I wrote:

Additional note: if you click on the "redlink" for the deleted article name, you will see that the deleting administrator cited two reasons: G11 unambiguous advertising or promotion, as well as G12 copyright. It is unlikely that this text will be acceptable - it reads like (what it it is) the company's story about itself; but an encyclopedia article is quite a different sort of thing.
