Draft:JENI COUZYN
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Draft:JENI COUZYN, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.jrank.org/literature/pages/3694/Jeni-Couzyn.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) 23:40, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Draft:Jeni Couzyn. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

 * Hi, Jeni Couzyn! I apologise for somewhat hostile tone of the template message above - I think that needs some work! However, it remains true that we do discourage people from writing about themselves, for several reasons. If, as seems to me very probable, you and your work meet our rather strict requirements for inclusion here, sooner or later someone will decide to start a page about you; it's probably best to simply wait until that happens. Can I also just remind you that copyrighted text cannot (in 99.9% of cases) be included here? I'm afraid I've had to remove most of what you wrote for that reason. Please don't let any of this deter you from contributing to this project – we all make such mistakes, particularly when new to editing. Regards, and welcome to Wikipedia!
