I reviewed the deletion of this article, and I agree that the deletion was appropriate. Wikipedia does not republish copyrighted material, unless that material has been legally licensed under the GFDL, which this text doesn't seem to be. And separate from the question of copyright is the question of notability; there were no sources or information that would verify that this person meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. Don't worry; if he really is an important musician, one of his many fans will inevitably create an original, sourced article about him. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 12:24, 7 October 2007 (UTC) And still, I want my text back. Thank you in advance. --M birukov 13:10, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * You wrote "there were no sources or information that would verify that this person meets Wikipedia's notability criteria" Oh well, ask Marc Ribot or John Medeski, if you know who they are... And then, "one of his many fans will inevitably create an original, sourced article about him" - why not ME?? Isn't it sourced? original (let's read closely once again: "I updated that text so that it would fit for the present moment. So this was NOT a copy of another text, that was ME REWRITING MY TEXT FOR YOU." I wrote it in the original message, didn't I?)? Why not? I don't understand this.
 * First of all, if you're writing for his official website, you are hardly neutral enough to be writing an article here. Please review Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy.  Second, the text on a person's official website is usually the most biased text about that person and will almost always violate WP:NPOV.  Third, in order to use text from another website, you have to either post a GFDL release on that website or prove that you own the text through the OTRS email process.  Please see WP:DCP for more on that.  Fourth, the article listed no independent, reliable sources that others could use to confirm the subject's notability and verify the facts asserted therein.  Nevertheless, I am emailing you the text of the article per your request.  Just don't repost it to Wikipedia.  Thank you. --  But | seriously | folks   20:12, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
