Welcome!
Hello, Asmundsollihogda, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Marjan van Aubel, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type help me on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Speedy deletion nomination of Marjan van Aubel


A tag has been placed on Marjan van Aubel 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 http://www.marjanvanaubel.com/about/. 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 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. red dogsix (talk) 17:36, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
 * It is a good idea to get the proper licensing taken care of for that image of Van Aubel--right now it stands a good chance of being deleted on Commons. Drmies (talk) 17:47, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Asmund, I have "saved" the references and deleted the copyvio. You are welcome to rewrite the text now, using the references. If I were you I'd look for a good article/biography to model yours after--try to stay away from the resume format., I saw your conversations with the editor. I am satisfied that there's no paid editing, though it's clear there is a COI--but that doesn't have to be a problem as long as the writing is neutral, and the person meets our guidelines (see WP:GNG and its subsections--I think she should be good). Asmund, I'm leaving the COI tag for now, as I'm sure you understand, and we can get rid of that if the article is neutral etc. Perhaps , who is an article-writing genius, has a few tips for you as well. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 20:42, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
 * thank you for the embarrassing overestimation of my skills :-) I currently have no internet access at home, but I'm noodling away at the article. Asmundsollihogda, I have no idea what it looked like before, but let's see what we can do with the references you assembled. Yngvadottir (talk) 18:18, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

Paid editing
Hello Asmundsollihogda. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Marjan van Aubel. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice. Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Asmundsollihogda. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 18:04, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
