Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Paul Manchin has been reverted. Your edit here to Paul Manchin was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://dancemusic.about.com/od/reviews/fr/PaulManchinTrut.htm) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 18:37, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Paul Manchin


A tag has been placed on Paul Manchin 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 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.

Paul Manchin
I see that you've tried to recreate an article about Paul Manchin at least four or five times now, so I need to advise you of a few things.

Firstly, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform. To get a Wikipedia article, a musician must be reliably sourceable (which means media coverage about him, not his own self-published PR or social media profiles) as having achieved or accomplished something that satisfies WP:NMUSIC. But you have yet to demonstrate or properly source anything that would meet that condition — what you're creating is written like an advertisement, not an encyclopedia article, and is not referenced to enough reliable source coverage. A Wikipedia article is a thing that a person earns by satisfying our criteria for having a Wikipedia article, not a thing that anybody is entitled to have just because he exists.

Secondly, your persistence in continually recreating that article, while never having contributed to Wikipedia on any other topic besides him, strongly implies to me that you have a direct conflict of interest of some kind: I don't know whether you are Paul Manchin, or his manager, or a publicist, or what, but you appear to have some kind of direct involvement in Paul Manchin's career. If you do, note that our COI rules mean you should not be creating or editing an article about him at all — like I said, we're a neutral encyclopedia, not a public relations platform. And if you don't, then you need to be more careful not to come across like you do, by familiarizing yourself with and following our rules about what constitutes a valid claim of notability, what constitutes valid sourcing for it, what constitutes proper formatting for an article, and on and so forth.

If you familiarize yourself with our rules and can create an article that actually does follow them properly, then you can try submitting it through the WP:AFC process so that it can be reviewed by established contributors. But you cannot keep recreating it in articlespace if it's not properly compliant with our rules.
