 * I wouldn't call it "an information database" - it's an encyclopaedia which is different to a database. Peridon (talk) 20:16, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Question for Peridon Please understand that I am not trying to appear rude or disrespectful in any manner. I simply am confused. I totally understand that because I am a PR Wiki would think I was paid to create the article. I know that is against the rules and trying to be fully transparent ended up costing me. I knew with the name, my articles would be investigated. I was fine with that cause I figured they would look to see if someone was a client or affiliate of mine before judging. I tried to address the issue and explain that he was not a client and I created the article because I was personally amazed by his work and felt it was history worthy. Not many men have so many awards ans honors. I was told by an editor for a wiki page to make it, the person needs to be notable. I felt he was. I openly asked for admin help with the article. I wanted to make sure it was done right. I don't understand why a page like this, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Christiansen is worthy and not the one I wrote? The only difference was, I mentioned the many awards won by the doctor. Please advise so I can pass the information on to others. Thanks. HollywebOnline (talk) 19:37, 18 March 2015
 * Part of the trouble with people in PR is that they find it hard to switch it off when they are doing something else. You're doing it there - "the noble, unique, and rare accomplishments of people, causes, TV series, Movies". I've never met anyone who talked like that - unless they were in PR or advertising. This isn't getting at you in particular. It's something that has also been noticed by others over the years. But, I'll ping a friend of mine to have a look. She's good at rescuing and explaining.

 * What article are we talking about, Peridon? --MelanieN (talk) 21:22, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
 * MICHAEL GLEIBER, but also the situation here. I blocked this account, and no-one has come to a decision about it yet (or they've decided to pass by on the other side...). I can't decline, but I'm not convinced enough yet to unblock. If you talk to them, we might get somewhere... Peridon (talk) 21:52, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, well, that was not a difficult call. User:HollywebOnline, please do not recreate the article Michael Glieber (BTW don't use all-caps when editing here). If you do, it will be deleted again. Dr. Glieber is undoubtedly a fine doctor and a good man; this is not any kind of judgment against him. It's just that Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia, and it has to have standards for what subjects get included here. We do not have articles about every board-certified doctor in the world, only those who qualify to be in an international encyclcopedia per our inclusion criteria. The basic rule is WP:GNG, the General Notability Guideline, that says a subject must have received significant coverage from independent reliable sources (like newspapers etc.) There is also a special way that scientists and academics can qualify, described at WP:ACADEMIC, to show that they are not merely competent, but actually a thought leader in their field. It does not appear that Dr. Glieber qualifies for an article under either criterion. Sorry. --MelanieN (talk) 23:38, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Joshua Ferguson


A tag has been placed on Joshua Ferguson 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 important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Whispers of life
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Whispers of life, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.turbidlakepictures.com/whispersoflife.html.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:23, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

I emailed the owners of the movie and asked them if I could write a wiki because I was so touched by the film. They gave me permission themselves and sent me the poster to use. It's the official poster for the movie. Not sure what else we would use for an image but the movies poster. Do I need to show written permission that I was given to use the poster?

Speedy deletion nomination of Whispers of life


A tag has been placed on Whispers of life 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://www.turbidlakepictures.com/whispersoflife.html. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of MICHAEL GLEIBER
Hello HollywebOnline,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged MICHAEL GLEIBER for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 01:04, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Please note that if you are editing for pay, as I strongly suspect from your user name, that unless this is declared you are in violation of our Terms of Service WP:TOS. Peridon (talk) 13:31, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.
 * Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Wikipedia's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Wikipedia again.
 * Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?


 * What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead. If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:


 * Add the text on your user talk page.
 * Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
 * Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Peridon (talk) 13:29, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
