Global Organic Textile Standards
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Global Organic Textile Standards, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.imo.ch/imo_services_textile_gots_en.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) 18:12, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Global Organic Textile Standards
A tag has been placed on Global Organic Textile Standards 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. – Toon (talk)  21:24, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Copyrights on Wikipedia
Hi, with regard to your note at Talk:Global Organic Textile Standards, unfortunately Wikipedia can only accept content which has been explicitly released under the GFDL license. This means that we must have permission from content owners for the text to be modified and used for any reason, commercial or otherwise, before we can add it to an article. Copyright law protects everybody's creations from unauthorised replication - e.g. being copied and displayed on someone else's web page. As one of the most-viewed websites in the world, Wikipedia must make every effort to protect itself and its contributors from potential legal consequences, and therefore such content is often quickly deleted. This isn't a reflection on the topic, and a subject will usually be accepted if it meets our notability guidelines. Copyright on Wikipedia is a complex area, and if you have any questions, leave me a message and I'd be happy to help or point you to someone who can. – Toon (talk)  22:56, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
