Speedy deletion nomination of Shekhar Chandra Joshi


A tag has been placed on Shekhar Chandra Joshi 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 a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.kunainital.ac.in/visual-art.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 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 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 "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. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:03, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to be sure you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.

 * I'm blocking you because you have repeatedly re-added copyrighted material about yourself to Wikipedia, despite multiple editors telling you that you cannot add copyrighted material to Wikipedia and warning you to stop adding this content. It also doesn't help that you're writing about yourself, something that is highly discouraged on Wikipedia, especially because writing your own page can be seen as self-promotion. You seem to be deliberately ignoring all of these warnings and I have to assume that if left unblocked, you would only continue on in this behavior. You've tried to add this content to multiple pages: Shekhar Chandra Joshi (three times), User talk:Joshipti (twice), User:Joshipti (once), and Draft:Shekhar Chandra Joshi (once). This doesn't include your attempt to add content to Category:Academic Profile. Wikipedia is not a place to upload your personal resume or profile.
 * You might be able to get unblocked, but a condition of the unblock would be that you would be restricted from writing about yourself on Wikipedia. If you pass notability guidelines then an unrelated editor will create the page. Now I have to also caution you that asking other people to create the page would still pose a WP:COI and might even be seen as a case of block evasion, to a degree. On top of this you would also have to show that you understand the reasons for your block and give an example of how you will edit Wikipedia if you are unblocked. If you respond to this by reposting the same copyright content on your talk page, access to this page will be revoked. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  05:22, 1 November 2016 (UTC)


 * It also looks like there was an attempt to add this same content to the usertalk of . I've deleted the content and blocked that user for copyright issues. I'm mentioning this because you will now need to state how the two of you are affiliated with one another. Is this you under a different account or a different person entirely?

Blocked for sockpuppetry

 * Do you understand that Wikipedia is not for writing about yourself? Also, that it is not a place for communicating "your thoughts to the world"? What would be editing about if you were to be unblocked? Peridon (talk) 18:24, 2 November 2016 (UTC)


 * No I would not write about myself. it was my mistake that I mistakenly put a hyperlink to that page due to which the copyright violation happened. I will remember it from next time. I will also remember not to change your username if you are blocked. I feel sorry for the mistake I did Kindly accept my apologies. Joshipti 11:40, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Putting a link to somewhere is not a copyright violation. The violation lies in copying the text to here. Peridon (talk) 18:08, 3 November 2016 (UTC)


 * When your previous unblock request was declined, you were told that it was because you had not shown that you understood what the issues are, and because you had not explained what you would write about if unblocked. In your new unblock request you say that you "would not repeat such mistakes again", but you still give no indication that you know what the "mistakes" were, nor do you say anything at all about what you will write about if unblocked. Your new unblock request is likely to be declined for the same reason as the earlier one unless you (a) explain what you think the "mistakes" were, and (b) give some indication of what editing you will do if unblocked, and how it will differ from what you did before. It is usual to decline unblock requests which just say "I won't make the same mistake again" without showing an understanding of what the problems were. The main reason for that is that experience over the years shows that very often when an editor says that, very often he or she actually does not understand the reason for the block, and is therefore likely to do make the same mistake again.

Copyright was not the only issue here. You need to address your block evasion and sockpuppetry. --Yamla (talk) 00:08, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
