Speedy deletion nomination of The Unlucky Girl


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on The Unlucky Girl requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   15:41, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Your article
Sorry, but Wikipedia is not for publishing stories on. It's an encyclopaedia, not free web space or social media. There's another problem too - you put a copyright notice at the end of it. You can't do that on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is licensed under CC-BY-SA and the GFDL for free re-use by anyone, anywhere, including modification and commercial use. That means that someone could sell copies of your story, and you'd not get a penny. If you've already published it (on another site,perhaps), we couldn't use it for the same reasons. If you have a web page at blogspot or wordpress, you can put copyright notices on, and sue anyone who copies your stuff. Here, when you click that Save page button, you say that you agree to WP:TOS, and license your work under CC-BY-SA etc. (I'm not sure what happens about stuff that's been put on here and fairly quickly deleted - you'll probably get away with it as only admins will be able to see what you posted, and no-one else will know... You do own the copyright - just as I own the copyright to this post - but I know that it's being licensed for re-use even though no-one will find much use for it away from this page.) OK? Keep writing, but don't post it here. There are sites where people post stories and rate each others' work, but I can't remember which they are. If this sounds complicated, yes, it is. Copyright is a complicated thing that can provide lawyers with quite a lot of work. In my writing role, I've not had any problems so far, but in my role as an editor I do have to keep a careful eye on what other people are doing, and make sure that what they send in is not copied. Good luck - writing is a hard business, but it can be great fun even if you aren't making money from it. Peridon (talk) 17:04, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
