Loo Hor-kuay
Hi. Please note that everything you add to an article must be verified with reliable sources, and the burden is with you to provide them. Please do not add unsourced content into an article, such as the edits you made to Loo Hor-kuay. Thanks.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 07:46, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Fred Matteson


A tag has been placed on Fred Matteson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://benitolink.com/obituary/frederick-h-matteson/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 deleted 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.

Copyright violations
Did you directly translate the text you added to Loo Hor-kuay, without paraphrasing it? Ovinus (talk) 21:13, 21 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi, Ovinus. No, the text was not directly translated for loo hor-kuay. And yes, I have read and understood "the guide to writing your first article", and understand the reason for deletion of Fred Matteson page. Is it possible for me to still review the code that I had written so that I can make the appropriate changes, since I did put a lot of work into the reference material? Thank you for your consideration Dthlo (talk) 15:06, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
