Speedy deletion nomination of Wishaw High Former Pupils


A tag has been placed on Wishaw High Former Pupils 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

 * In addition to the copyright problem, the article did not indicate that the organisation was of encyclopaedic significance or importance, which in itself would have been a sufficient reason for deletion. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:40, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Please do not continue to ignore copyright issues, or you will be blocked from editing. Also, "the information is valid to the town of Wishaw" is not sufficient justification for having an article. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, but requires subjects to have sufficient notability, demonstrated by substantial coverage in multiple sources: you may like to look at the notability guidelines and FAQ/Organizations.
