Speedy deletion nomination of Leo KoGuan


A tag has been placed on Leo KoGuan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.  DGG ( talk ) 04:38, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for message. Not a reason for deletion, but please don't make up infoboxes, use Template:Infobox academic or whatever is appropriate. I deleted your article because
 * Contrary to what your colleague thinks, the article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. In this case, the text is restricted to non-commercial use, so not PD. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.
 * it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that he meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to him, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the he claims. Much of your text is unsourced or sourced only to affiliated sources such as his foundation, not to independent third-party sources
 * you gave some references, but they were not in-line so we can't tell what fact each is supporting. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims and opinions presented as fact include: Professor...Being curious about... his lifelong pursuit... a faithful adherent... dedicates his life... a sound social environment... everyone is free to seek, explore and actualize their dreams and potentials.&mdash; and so on. It's a hagiography, just opinions comments and mindreading, no actual verifiable facts. Also, if his name is written the US way, rather than the Chinese, "Leo" is too informal, use surnames
 * there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. That's particularly the case when they are spamlinks to his organisations.

I can't restore the pages because of the copyright violations, but in any case it probably would benefit from a clean start as a draft. If you have any questions or need help, ask on my talk page. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  15:37, 23 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks for further info. I had been relying on the edit summary by &mdash;According to Leo KoGuan Foundation official website, logos and poems belong to the public. They are free to be in common use but not for profits, so that there is no copyright violation &mdash;which is obviously not PD because of the not-for profit restriction. However, your link seems unambiguous as to PD status, so you can use those images. Make sure you provide that link when you upload to Commons. I'd also suggest slightly amending the file names so they are not identical to those deleted, eg perhaps  Qbit-multiverse2.png or Qbit-multiversePD.png  instead of Qbit-multiverse.png
 * You will, of course, still need to address the other issues I raised. You will need to put your references in the the text following the fact each supports using . Then    at the end will automatically generate a numbered list. Good luck Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:41, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
