Speedy deletion nomination of Sándor Szabó (guitar artist)


A tag has been placed on Sándor Szabó (guitar artist), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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 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. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "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.

Sándor Szabó
Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because I hope this clarifies,  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  09:51, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
 * the article was a copyright violation of this page. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your friend, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. I see no indication of such a notice. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, or they will be deleted. You had no references, and his own website is obviously not an independent source. He may or may not be notable, it's hard to tell from the text which just tells us how wonderful he is, not how he meets the notability criteria.
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: utilizing his sensitivity and openness... synthesis of all the musical influences he had ever experienced... ideal breeding-ground to achieve this... first to play solo acoustic guitar music in Hungary... his modern pieces, and deep spirituality earned him credits... His records have been released in England, Italy, USA, Venezuela, Norway, and Germany... talented drummer... one of the most successful groups in Hungary performing in almost every music festival in the country &mdash; and on and on in the same vein. It's a vanity page not an encyclopaedia article.
 * ...I tried to create for my good friend: you have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. Thank you for declaring your interest. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your friend is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
 * If you recreate, the title should be Sándor Szabó (guitarist), it's unencyclopaedic to label him as an artist
 * It is likely that links to YouTube will be removed by a bot if not by a human since they usually violate our policies


 * See John Williams (guitarist). It's not brilliant (not enough references, bit spammy in tone), but it should give you an idea of what is required if you decide to continue  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  09:56, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
