Speedy deletion nomination of LASOONA: Society for Human and Natural Resource Development


A tag has been placed on LASOONA: Society for Human and Natural Resource Development requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image 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. 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 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 or image 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 your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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. Shirt58 (talk) 08:59, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

About LASOONA: Society for Human and Natural Resource Development
Hi Anwar, and again welcome to the English language Wikipedia.

Unfortunately this Wikipedia page will be "speedily deleted" very soon, because its content is a copyright violation. The page (called an "article" in Wikipedia jargon) is copied word-for-word from pages in the www.lasoona.org website. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

Please do note that the deletion is simply for copyright reasons, and is in no way a comment on the organization itself. (There may be other issues with Wikipedia policies, but they are not important right now.)

I'm a fairly experienced Wikipedia contributor (called "editors" in Wikipedia jargon) with a particular interest in the Subcontinent, and would be more than happy to work with you on re-creating the article.

Copyright and notability
Wikipedia cannot hold copyright material, not even in sandboxes or user pages, not even temporarily. Please read Copy-paste.

Please note that assertion of permission to use text is not enough; we have to be certain that the person giving a release has the authority to do so, and that the actual copyright holder understands and agrees to Wikipedia's license terms, which allow any reader to copy, modify and re-use material for any purpose including commercial. For those reasons, a formal copyright release, as described above, is required.

It is very seldom worth making a copyright release, because the promotional tone of a company or personal website is likely to be quite unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not a notice-board for pinning up promotional material - see Wikipedia is not here to tell the world about your noble cause.

Article subjects need to have notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." There is more detail at WP:Notability (organizations and companies) and the WP:FAQ/Organizations.

As you are connected with the organization, you should also read the guidelines WP:Conflict of interest and WP:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

As Shirt58 has offered to help, I suggest that you make a draft article in your user space: start by clicking on Help:Userspace draft and filling in the title. That will make a draft page where you can write an article. Read WP:Your first article for advice before you start. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 10:27, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
