Speedy deletion nomination of State Belt Diesel


A tag has been placed on State Belt Diesel requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image 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. 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 that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Insults
Nemesis63 ND  and Cyan Gardevoir. Well I must admit that this is the biggest group of melon heads it has been my pleasure to deal with recently. You can't even figure out that the copyright infringement you are threatening me with is my own website which is not copy right.

You idiots must think you get points for being the first to bust somebody. They should take your license away for pure stupidity. As I put these pages together I quoted from my own forth coming book.

If they leave fools like you in charge, I will never believe another thing on Wikipedia Fools. Bill Kaufman — Preceding unsigned comment added by Captnbilly1 (talk • contribs)
 * I have blocked you briefly. Calling Wikipedians melon heads, idiots and fools is not acceptable. Advice for when you return: the easiest way to get round the copyvio question is to place a notice at the bottom of every page of www.statebelt.org stating that the text is licensed under Creative Commons - in exactly the same way that every Wikipedia page carries such a notice. Instead of creating context-free stubs, just put all your edits into the San Francisco Belt Railroad article. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 00:00, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Please explain how Nemesis63 and Cyan Gardevoir were expected to work out that you own the copyright of the website you copied. Did you provide a link anywhere? Did you state it on your user page? &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 14:02, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - The motive power has now been added to the main article for the State Belt Railroad. Since you seem to have some background knowledge, you can help by adding more detail and references about the steamers and ALCOs used by the line. (What happened to engines 5 and 12 for example.) Editing of existing articles is a good way to learn the "nuts and bolts" that go into creating new articles.  Blue   Riband►   14:20, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
