Rambam Mesivta
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Rambam Mesivta, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.rambam.org/pages/history.htm. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Rambam Mesivta
A tag has been placed on Rambam Mesivta 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 Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see 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  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. <b style="color:navy;">NW</b> ( Talk ) 01:22, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. <b style="color:navy;">NW</b> ( Talk ) 01:36, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Fake photo
It seems that you created a fake photo of Ginger Littleton's pocketbook. The real one is seen here. Why would you want to lie about this? It is a very poor reflection on your credibility. WWGB (talk) 07:18, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I had no intention of uploading a fake photo of Littleton's pocketbook. A google search returned an article with that picture in it and a caption saying this was Littleton's pocketbook (http://boylanblog.blogspot.com/).  Obviously that was not the truth, and I am currently working on getting a real picture of her pocketbook.  Thanks for your concern, and I apologize if there was any inadvertent wrongdoing.

I uploaded a photo of Ginger Littleton readying to hit Duke with her pocketbook. This one is obviously legit and I've included it in the Ginger Littleton section of 2010 Panama City school board shootings. <b style="color:#5000cf">Ash</b><b style="color:#99cc">er</b><b style="color:#6666c9">sh</b><b style="color:#811c6">ow</b><b style="color:#1c3">1</b> 03:19, 29 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I am not so sure that it is "obviously legit" as the copyright probably rests with the school board who filmed the meeting from which the still was taken. I will leave it to others more familiar with Wikipedia copyright rules to make that call. Regards, WWGB (talk) 03:41, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:The Ring 3D-theatrical release poster.tiff

 * I'm not sure why the file page claims it is an orphaned image, because it clearly appears in the infobox of The Ring 3D. Seems like a perfectly reasonable fair use image.--Ashershow1talk 18:31, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Insanity (Home exercise program)


A tag has been placed on Insanity (Home exercise program) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. ThePaintedOne (talk) 08:08, 3 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I had replied on the talk page, but it got nuked a couple of seconds later. Two of the sources you put up were unsuitable as they were primary sources to websites owned by the company. The third was a reasonable secondary source, but just being reviewed by a fitness website does not demonstrate notabillity, which I imagine is why the reviewing admin has deleted it. The reason it was tagged for SD is because this is a duplicate of another article already speedied last night as promotional and didnt have any evidence showing this was a notable product. If you really want to put this page up I'd suggest building it in userspace first, with the emphasis on finding good quality secondary sources which show its a notable product, then copy to wikispace (possibly asking for an opinion from someone else first)--ThePaintedOne (talk) 14:46, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes it seems this article was deleted rather quickly; discussion was still unresolved. The review I listed was only one of dozens of reviews online of Insanity (I'll be glad to list more of them), and those blogs and reviews combined with official company websites makes Insanity just as notable as any standard WP product article.  I'm working on getting the article re-posted so we can continue discussion at its talk page.--Ashershow1talk • contribs 14:53, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
