Welcome!

Speedy deletion nomination of Paul Gabriël


A tag has been placed on Paul Gabriël 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". 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.

Hello
Just wanted to let you know that I saw that you created the new article Willem Bastiaan Tholen--You did an excellent job uploading an image to the article. However, I noticed there are some holes that may need filling: the article currently does not contain any references. As a new article, the most important thing is to find reliable references for all existing information. It would be great if you could also clean-up the related article Jacob Maris.

Antonie Waldorp
Hello Dkiel,

thank you for your work on the article Antonie Waldorp. I noticed that you provided the relevant Dutch wikipedia article as the only reference for the text. I'm afraid that this might not be in accordance with Wikipedia's guidelines on reliable sources. Wikipedia articles are not considered as reliable (not even within wikipedia itself), since they may be edited by any user. Since you appear to have much greater knowledge of both the topic and the Dutch language than I, the best idea would be, if you just go ahead with adding the original sources from the Dutch article to this one. If you have any questions or if I can assist you in any way, please let me know. Best regards --Phileasson (talk) 18:51, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:52, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
