Reusing Wikipedia's text
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. :) I've left you a "welcome mat" above which may have some links you'll find useful as you learn your way around. I note that you recently copied material from Brock University Faculty of Business to the article University of New Brunswick Faculty of Business Administration, and I just wanted to drop you a note to point out a few things about the procedure. As Splitand Help:Merge set out, when we split material, we have to provide a direct link to the source article. This is necessary because Wikipedia's contributors do not release their material into public domain, but retain rights to authorship under the terms of our licenses, CC-By-SA and GFDL. This wikilink satisfies that requirement by allowing readers to access the history and see who contributed what and when. Usually, we put into the edit summary something along the lines of "Copied from Brock University Faculty of Business". Then, we note the reuse as well in an edit summary at the source article. That would read like "Material copied to University of New Brunswick Faculty of Business Administration", in this case. This helps make sure that the article is not later deleted, as it cannot be as long as the article to which the material has been copied remains. We also have an optional template for the talk pages of both articles at Copied (instructions for using it found there). I have fixed the problems with this article, but I wanted to let you know for future use. If you have copied material from other articles, please be sure to make proper note of that. Thanks, and if you have any questions about this, please feel free to leave a line at my talk page. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:37, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of University of New Brunswick Faculty of Business Administration


A tag has been placed on University of New Brunswick Faculty of Business Administration, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Captain Conundrum (talk) 09:54, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
