Speedy deletion nomination of Carolyn Mary Skelly


A tag has been placed on Carolyn Mary Skelly 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 https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=148612529. 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 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 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 or image 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 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.

 * Hello. First of, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Second, while I understand your frustration, you have to understand that Wikipedia has certain policies to which each of us has to adhere. If you want to create a biographical article about someone, I would suggest you read the manual of style on biographies. It lays out how to approach such an article. Since the biography you're writing is of your grandmother, there's also a case that can be made about you being a conflict of interest. In that case, you shouldn't edit the article, and ask another editor to edit for you so that the article can adhere to a neutral point of view. You can do that here or you can write and your question on your own talk page, and a volunteer will assist you there. You should also consider whether the subject of the article, in this case your grandmother, is notable, and whether the sources you've used so far in this article are verifiable. And lastly, read our copyright policy, and since you claim to be the owner of the images, this.


 * You've done a wonderful job so far, but if they go against all of what I just wrote, the article may be deleted.


 * I hope I have been of some assistance to you,
 * Regards,
 *  LoMS  talk   19:09, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
