User talk:BananAlan

Welcome!
I worked very hard on a new article about the history and information of Bananas at Large. It was not advertising in my opinion, I worked hard to only write its history and current news. Things people ask about all the time. It was deleted with out discussion by Jclemens. I even asked him for help to edit it and got no reply. How can I undelete the article I worked so hard on. I am wiling to learn to edit it properly. Jclemens also said it a meaningless article. Who is he to decide that? Isn't that up to the public? Why is an article on Guitar Center ok but not on Bananas at Large?

Help me understand.


 * On a deleted article, the only people who have access to deleted material would be administrators.

Speedy deletion of Bananas at Large
A tag has been placed on Bananas at Large 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 blatant 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.

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 this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. -- Shadowlynk (Talk) 06:15, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violations...
... are deleted on sight. If you want future submissions to be kept, please either 1) put a compatible permissions statement on the source website that you presumably control--we have no way of authenticating that you are who you say you are, or 2) See WP:IOWN for additional guidance. Note that there may be other issues, such as conflict of interest and blatant advertizing, which are more enduring barriers to your creating a wikipedia article on your own business. And please do not delete others' comments from my talk page, thanks. Jclemens (talk) 06:28, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
