Speedy deletion nomination of Krieger Schechter Day School


A tag has been placed on Krieger Schechter Day School requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. 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 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 belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 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 that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Copyright issues
Hello! I wanted to leave you a personalized note as I know the template messages above can be sort of cold. People who monitor newly created pages like I do often use them to save time so that we can attempt to assess the thousands of new pages that need checking.

I saw you created the article that was previously deleted as a copyright violation but this time, included a permission template on the talk page. I checked the archived permission webpage you linked and I don't see where it's giving permission. It looks like a version of the website's front page. We can clear this up but there's a few things we'll need to do.

First, permission will need to be concretely established. If you are in a position to give permission to Wikipedia to use the text, you can read how to do that at WP:DCM. It's basically as easy as sending an email.

The second thing we'll need to address is the tone of the text you've added. As it was written by the school and not originally for an encyclopedia, its tone will need some work. It appears to have some advertorial content and "point of view" which is the phrase we use to identify content that takes a side or states an opinion as fact.

In short, we need to get the permission for the text handled but even then, it may not be suitable for Wikipedia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here and I'll do my best to assist you.  Ol Yeller21 Talktome  18:13, 8 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello. I just wanted to add a note of appreciation that your use of this template (which is new) has highlighted a major problem in the directions. It did not fully explain how it was to be used!


 * Basically, if we are to be able to accept the license through that mechanism, we would need you to place the following language on your website:
 * The text of this website is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts).
 * If you don't wish to place this on the website, you can still grant permission, but as OlYeller21 says, you will need to do so through an email to the Wikimedia Foundation. There is a form letter you can use at Declaration of consent for all enquiries. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:33, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
