Sanzaru Games[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Sanzaru Games, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.sanzaru.com/about.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:37, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Sanzaru Games[edit]

A tag has been placed on Sanzaru Games 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.

Ok. I will withdraw the speedy but you need to expand it to avoid an AfD. Thanks! --Riotrocket8676 ^{You gotta problem with that?} 15:43, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BRD[edit]

Please read WP:BRD. You made the initial change to the template layout, this edit was reverted, you must now go to the talk page and explain why your version is better than the previous version and discuss how to progress. Simply reverting non-stop will solve nothing. The template should remain in the original format (ie, the version before you altered it) until consensus is reached.

For the record, could you confirm that you are not the same person as User:USEDfan? Nouse4aname (talk) 07:46, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is an open edit site, meaning anyone can edit it. However, if an edit is reverted, you should discuss why you want to make the changes that you are attempting to make. That is what WP:BRD explains. The template was in a stable state before you tried to alter it. Your edit was reverted by another editor, you simply cannot revert this, you must discuss it and reach a consensus. I am simply restoring the template to the previously stable state, you must begin discussion on the template talk page in order to reach agreement as to how to format the template. As far as I can see, no other such template is formatted the way you are changing it to, and so I am unsure as to why you are attempting to make these changes. I notice that you have ignored my previous comment above. Please respond to state that you understand what I am telling you, and also confirm or deny that you have ever used the account User:USEDfan.

Are you ignoring my explanations intentionally, or do you just not understand? Nouse4aname (talk) 14:47, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
