Speedy deletion nomination of The destruction of archive documents and thier limited access


A tag has been placed on The destruction of archive documents and thier limited access 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 an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www2.archivists.org/glossary/terms/d/destruction. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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. Yeryry (talk) 23:38, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

Archive elimination in Cameroon
Hello!

I recently came across your article Archives elimination in Cameroon while I was browsing Special:UncategorizedPages. I saw that it had been recommended for WP:PROD. In order to help you out with that a little bit, I did some minor copy-editing on the page. I would love to further help you work on this article, because as-is it doesn't provide as much as it could. I've identified some problems:


 * No sources specific to Cameroon.
 * This also means there are no refs to the actual process of archival disposal in Cameroon (I was not able to find any).
 * Many general archive disposal references - most of which might not meet WP:Source.
 * Many of them seem like self-published articles from paper-destruction companies (I'm not sure if that's a real thing).
 * Many of them seem to be commercial ads - these companies trying to sell their service.
 * This article might do better as a heading under the National Archives of Cameroon which also needs some work.

Like I said, I would like to help you work on the article, but I would need some input on these things from you. You can come find me on my talk page, or here if you'd like to discuss this further. Unfortunately, currently the article probably doesn't meet notability standards for WP, and would be deleted. So, come find me. menaechmi (talk) 18:53, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
