Speedy deletion nomination of Mark Pulman


A tag has been placed on Mark Pulman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mark Pulman


A tag has been placed on Mark Pulman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from https://www.hud.ac.uk/ourstaff/profile/index.php?staffuid=smusmp. 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 or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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 or image 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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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. &mdash; Lucas Thoms 21:57, 12 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi, I noticed your contestation of the speedy deletion on Talk:Mark Pulman.

The question of whether or not Pulman's (your?) work merits an article on Wikipedia is not the only issue here. The content of this article is copied from a biography on a university website, which is not allowed because of copyright policies (already explained above).
 * Even if the article were rewritten (or permission is given to use the text from the university biography), it would still have to reflect a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not for promotion or advertising, so the university biography text would probably not be acceptable even with permission to use it. Please read the policy on conflict of interest and the plain and simple guide for editors with close associations.  Anon 126   (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 01:41, 13 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi I'm the one who tagged the article as a copyvio, so I feel like I should explain the apparent out-of-contextness of the contestation. The author's note on the talk page was in regards to the A7 that it was originally tagged with. That certainly doesn't excuse the copyvio, the possible notability issues, nor the promotional tone; it just explains why it doesn't address the G12. &mdash; Lucas  Thoms 03:57, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
