Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means, and on Notability (people) and Notability (music) for more detail. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. JohnCD (talk) 15:47, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * For advice about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
 * You should not write articles about yourself, your band, your client, your boss or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
 * Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Before writing about your own organization, read FAQ/Organizations.
 * For experiments, please use the sandbox.

Copyright problems with Eva Lopez
Hello. Concerning your contribution, Eva Lopez, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). As a copyright violation, Eva Lopez appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. Eva Lopez has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) then you should do one of the following:


 * If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Requesting copyright permission for instructions.

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you.

Please note that even if the copyright issue were resolved, the promotional tone of a company or personal website may well be unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view. JohnCD (talk) 15:49, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

How to create a page on wikipedia when it is erased at once for violation of copyright of the text. I had no time (5 mn) to indicate that I was the author of this on-line put text on Eva Lopez's site, I am the webmaster of the site and the author of texts, how to put on Wikipedia this text and to leave me the time to indicate the rights without being erased at once? Thank you for your help Countryfolken (talk) 16:24, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. I apologise for the delay in replying.


 * It is not enough to assert that you have permission - if you wish to use copyright material, you need to follow the steps explained in the "Copyright problems" notice above. Note that what is involved is more than a simple permission to reproduce (see the warning at the foot of every edit screen); by contributing material to Wikipedia, you "grant broad permissions to the general public to re-distribute and re-use their contributions freely, as long as the use is attributed" (see Terms of Use and Copyrights).


 * However, there are other problems. If you are the webmaster of www.evalopezmusic.com, you have a conflict of interest in writing about her, and need to be particularly careful that what you post is written from a neutral point of view, and is verifiable from reliable sources that are independent of the subject - her own website, Myspace etc are not enough. There is good advice about editing with a conflict of interest at User:Uncle G/On notability.


 * Understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a notice-board or a place where you can simply post your own promotional piece; you will not be able to control any article you post - other users may and probably will edit it.


 * For advice on the preferred form and style of Wikipedia articles, you will find these links helpful:

 * Manual of style (biographies)
