Speedy deletion nomination of File:Evan Burfield Headshot.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Evan Burfield Headshot.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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.

Hello, I'm Excirial. I noticed that you recently removed some content from 1776 (company) with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 19:02, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

1776 (company)
You left a comment on my talk page about an edit I recently made on the 1776 (company) page about explaining my deletion. I am currently in the process of writing the explanation (I've been having this particular section repeatedly inserted against consensus) and want to make it a thorough explanation. Thanks for reviewing KAIdc (talk) 19:13, 2 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Seems entirely fine to me. It is always convenient to add an edit summary to explain an edit though, since it usually prevents any misunderstanding over content removal. Vandalism patrol pretty much consists of looking at diffs for changes that are harmful. The change you made looks like this - a large section of sourced content is removed without a comment explaining why this is done. Sections containing criticism are somewhat prone to removal by random editors so without any explanation those tend to be reverted. (The "See talk page" you left afterwards is perfect to counter that by the way)  Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 19:27, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Smart cities
I am editing the smart cities article heavily at the moment and am inviting you, as someone who has contributed significantly in the past, to it to engage. Please engage on the article talk page if you are interested rather than here. Thanks. PeterEastern (talk) 08:28, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
