Edit summaries
Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. 220  of  Borg 05:15, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of John O'Keefe (neuroscientist)


A tag has been placed on John O'Keefe (neuroscientist) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://gruber.yale.edu/neuroscience/john-okeefe. 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 or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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 or image 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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Reasons not to delete John O'Keefe article
Randykitty, I am requesting that the John O'Keefe page not be deleted. The majority of that article was written from scratch based on my knowledge of the articles that he has published. I have now modified the first paragraph so that it does not replicate the Gruber web page. I hope that the article can survive in its present form. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.209.24 (talk) 20:01, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Further modifications of recent awards paragraph to avoid overlap with Gruber prize web site
I also modified the recent awards paragraph to avoid overlap with the Gruber prize web site. I made the above changes to the first paragraph but had not logged in when I wrote the message. I have worked infrequently on wikipedia pages, so I forgot about logging in.

Comment
First of all, if you have an account use it while commenting. Secondly, sign your comments when leaving a message at someones talk page. Lastly, I will edit that or any other article if I please. Thanks for your input.--BabbaQ (talk) 10:43, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
