My talk page (and the entire article) for Last Generation Sponsorship was deleted. I corrected the accidental copyright violation (by rewriting the cited paragraph and by adding references to my interviews) and said as much on the talk page. I got no other notice but the page (and talk page) has been deleted. I posed a question on the editor's talk page but don't have an answer yet. I can correct whatever isn't right, I just need to know what it is. Thanks Egoober (talk) 16:55, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The page was deleted because it used copyrighted material. See WP:COPYRIGHT for a specific Wikipedia policy ...... Dendodge  .. Talk Contribs 17:07, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

I removed the copyrighted material. The area in question was only the last paragraph and I changed it -- rewrote it completely from my interview notes. If there was more than the last paragraph that was problematic, I should have been notified and give a chance to rework it prior to deletion. Also leaving a record of the conversation on the talk page would have been helpful. Egoober (talk) 19:25, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ask an admin to re-create the page in your userspace if you want. This is called "userfication", and it allows you to work on the article on your own. Then when it's done you can move it back into article-space (place another helpme if you don't know how to do that).

Thanks for the information!!!! That is what I want to do, but I don't know how. I want to do "userfication" on this article. Thanks again! Egoober (talk) 20:27, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ask any administrator ¡ Dendodge  .. Talk Contribs! 20:30, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Please help! I want "userfication" for the "Last Generation Sponsorship" article so I can correct it. Thanks! Egoober (talk) 00:41, 18 August 2008 (UTC)


 * The latest revision of this (deleted) article is still a copyright violation, and so it cannot be restored, even to userspace. You will have to start from scratch I'm afraid. Kevin (talk) 04:38, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

 * You will need to establish notablility from secondary sources by providing references to those sources. See Notability. The article read as a promotion piece and not as an encyclopedia article. see Your first article. Cheers! Wassupwestcoast (talk) 23:20, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article.

Speedy deletion of Shane Ellison
A tag has been placed on Shane Ellison requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 06:14, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Promotional material
Please don't try to add promotional material to Wikipedia. It will just get removed. --BozMo talk 06:45, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Last Generation Sponsorship
A tag has been placed on Last Generation Sponsorship 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 blatant 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.

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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." 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, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
