This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Downey Publishing, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.downeypublishing.com/index.aspx?id=AboutUs. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 18:12, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Downey Publishing
A tag has been placed on Downey Publishing 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.

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.

I have noted the "hangon" tag you applied to the above-captioned article and the discussion on its associated talk page. I'm an administrator who assesses articles for deletion once they've been tagged; I have to say that, as far as I'm concerned, the question of copyright is moot because there is no evidence that the company in question comes close to meeting our notability standards. I believe, in fact, that the question of notability is the actual answer to your question. If a company is notable, there will be reliable sources writing in arm's-length third-party reputable publications that give sufficient information about that company to create a Wikipedia article without having to rely on violating the copyright of the company by republishing material from its website. Given that lack of notability, which is an absolute requirement for the subjects of Wikipedia articles, I have decided to agree with the individual who tagged the article for deletion but to delete the article on the grounds that I can find insufficient notability to retain it. You will therefore be saved the trouble of arranging the copyright matters to Wikipedia's satisfaction. If you have questions about this process, this article may inform you in greater depth, as will following the links in this paragraph. Best of luck with your future contributions.
