Hi! Your recently created article, Dry brush technique, appears to exist already at Drybrush. Consider merging. Chris the Paleontologist (talk • contribs) 20:10, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Also, don't create exact copies of articles under different titles. Instead, make redirects. A redirect page has the following content:


 * 1) RedirectPage to redirect to

I hope this helps. Chris the Paleontologist (talk • contribs) 20:14, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dry brush technique


A tag has been placed on Dry brush technique 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 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 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. SudoGhost 21:31, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
