Speedy deletion nomination of File:Sean Young PhD.jpeg


A tag has been placed on File:Sean Young PhD.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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.

Conflict of Interest? Paid Editing?
Hello, Metalhorn1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
 * instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.


 * Based on your edits (all related to Prof. Young) and the fact that you have uploaded the same photo twice claiming it to be "own work" now (it's a professional photo - are you a professional photographer?) I'm assuming that you either 1) are Prof. Young 2) or work for Prof. Young. In such a case, you must make a declaration of conflict of interest. In particular you must state whether you are being compensated for the work on the pages. LaMona (talk) 23:37, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

A few points: Yes, I am a professional photographer (http://www.lynwoodlord.com/). There's no deception involved with the Sean Young, PhD, photo, so again, I request that it not be deleted. The initial photo was removed simply to remove any indication of impropriety (even though that is also my own work; I was simply not familiar with the submission process).

Second, I am an employee of UCLA, but not directly for Dr. Young. The university employs 40,000+ people, and I work with a great number of public health officials, including Dr. Young. I was made aware of the lack of a Wikipedia presence for his centers, and volunteered to create the entries on my own time. I will supply the COI for UCLA in my revision, but otherwise feel there is nothing out of line with my entries. (I have written them in a neutral tone and used widely available sourcing.) I will amend the sourcing in the University of California, Institute for Prediction Technology entry to include more external media citations. However, as you point out, the center is quite young. It does employ several very notable computer scientists, including a Guggenheim "genius award" winner (Dr. James H. Fowler), so I feel that it more than meets the criterion for notability.
