Disambiguation link notification for August 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Blair Tuke, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Peter Burling. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Live Ocean


A tag has been placed on Live Ocean 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://www.sail-world.com/news/223965/Burling-and-Tuke-announce-new-ocean-ambition. 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. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 19:29, 14 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid that even if the text originates with the charity we can't use it without evidence of permission. A statement by somebody on the internet that the charity asked you to create the page doesn't qualify because (a) we have no idea if you are telling the truth and (b) asking you to create the page doesn't mean they made the content available under the licence Wikipedia uses. There are instructions here for providing evidence of permission but it is generally better to rewrite the content instead. If you work for the charity you should also read WP:COI before making any further edits about it.  Hut 8.5  07:54, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
