This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Alexander von Brill, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Printonly/Brill.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) 10:53, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Alexander von Brill[edit]
A tag has been placed on Alexander von Brill 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.
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.

- Hi. Welcome, again. I am afraid I deleted the Alexander von Brill article before I saw, from the history, that you had already begun to rewrite it. I think some of the words were still rather too close to the source, so I have not restored it at once, but within a day I will restore it with a little further rewriting, and you are then welcome to develop it further. The links in the Welcome paragraph above will tell you more about contributing. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 14:06, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
