 * Hi Amy, for some reason only one of the reasons the draft was declined was copied to this page – if you look at the draft, you'll see that there are other issues as well. Copyright violations are more serious than other issues because there may be legal repercussions, but the draft would not have been accepted even if the text hadn't been copied from the band's website. Since the draft is tagged for deletion and might have been deleted by the time you see this, I'll post the other notes here as well. Each note contains blue links to other Wikipedia articles that explain the policies and guidelines involved. The notice above also has links, to information about paraphrasing and attributing sources.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:The Amalgam


A tag has been placed on Draft:The Amalgam requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://theamalgamband.com/about-us/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. bonadea contributions talk 11:21, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
