Speedy deletion nomination of Assembly of Confessing Congregations


A tag has been placed on Assembly of Confessing Congregations 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 clear 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. 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. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Bongo  matic  03:55, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comments at the talk page, explaining that you were posting the content on behalf of the ACC. Please note that we can't simply take your word for it — this is not because we don't want text from other sources, but because we can't instantly verify that you're who you say you are.  We're trying to protect the ACC's copyright, so we need proof that you have the authority to post this content.  You can prove this by doing either one of two things:

A sufficient declaration of consent would consist of a link to the source page and a release statement such as the one I suggested for the webpage, and you'd need to have the email sent from an address listed on the organisation's website as being one of an official. I'm sorry that we have to jump through these hoops, but it's to ensure that copyright is protected. Nyttend (talk) 04:36, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) Prove that you're authorised to make the text available under a Wikipedia-compatible license. You can do this by using an ACC-related email address (one that's mentioned on the ACC's website as being used by an official of the organisation) to send an email to  stating something like "Wikipedia user Itonganet is authorised to release content from the website of the Assembly of Confessing Congregations under the Creative Commons Attribution Sharealike 3.0 License".
 * 2) Prove that the text is available under a Wikipedia-compatible license. You can do this by arranging for an authorised person to send a declaration of consent (see below) to, or by having a release statement posted on the website whence this text was taken.  A simple but sufficient statement for the webpage would be "The contents of this page are released under the Creative Commons Attribution Sharelike 3.0 License".
