Speedy deletion nomination of Indian Old Fields, Kentucky


A tag has been placed on Indian Old Fields, Kentucky 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.

Also, a few other useful ones:
 * WP:RELIABLE - waht constitutes reliable sources for information to be added here
 * WP:COPYVIO - copyright violations and why we dont do them
 * WP:NOTESSAY - we are not a publisher of original essays and material

Per this at Eskippathiki, this is an extensive copyright violation. We do not accept other peoples essays like this. Please read up on our editing practices, links are provided above. If the person who wrote the essay you copy and pasted in is considered a WP:RELIABLE source, they could be used as citations for the material, but you cannot add their material in wholesale like that. This is a very serious matter on Wikipedia, please do not do it again. Good luck and happy editing.  He  iro 16:05, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
