You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Whpq (talk) 22:32, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dick sutphen


A tag has been placed on Dick sutphen, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be a clear copyright infringement. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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 belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

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. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 01:59, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (Hi So Im trying to make a wikipedia page for the first time ever and am still figuring out how to use it, but besides that the page I am trying to make is for my dad so there is no copyright violation whatsoever in what im trying to do, I was just trying to cite a source that had the information out there. So what do I need to cite instead? Or do I even need to cite anything at all?) --Huntersutphen (talk) 22:46, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I saw your note on the talk page and copied it here as the article and page may get deleted again. I've posted a welcome message at the top of your talk page. It has some helpful links for editors new to Wikipedia. I see in your note above that you are trying to create an article for your dad. You should be aware of Wikipedia's guidelines on conflict of interest. Also, the article is a copy of material that comes from a copyrighted website. Copyrights are tricky things, and all material on Wikipedia must be licensed for use freely; see Copyrights. As the material is already published on a web site which indicates it is copyrighted with no notice that it is released under an appropriate free license, it cannot be used on Wikipedia unless proper permission is verified; see Donating copyrighted materials. Even if permission were verified, the text is still not acceptable because it is promotional in nature.

I suggest that you consider drafting an article in your sandbox and go through Articles for creation. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 10:26, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
