Proposed deletion of Michael Konopasek


The article Michael Konopasek has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. 5 albert square (talk) 22:07, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Michael Konopasek


A tag has been placed on Michael Konopasek 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," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). 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. 5 albert square (talk) 23:03, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

June 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (Mjkonopasek) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. The article in question is Michael Konopasek. Thank you. 5 albert square (talk) 23:04, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Hello
OK, if you really want to create an article about this person I would suggest that you thoroughly read the welcome message that I put at the top of your page. That contains loads of links on how to create you article.

Please note a couple of things though:

1) All Biography of a Living Person (BLP) articles created after 18 March 2010 must have at least one reliable source in the article.  To find out what classes as a reliable source and what doesn't please read WP:RS.

2) You cannot just copy and paste from a website on to Wikipedia.  With information on other websites, that information is copyrighted to them and not to Wikipedia.  To simply copy and paste the information on to Wikipedia would be a breach of copyright.

3) You are strongly discouraged from editing any articles that you may be associated with. This is why I pointed out to you your username.  Although you might not be Michael Konopasek because your username is so very similar you would be discouraged from making any substantial edits to the article as this may represent a conflict of interest.  For example I can edit Lauren Branning to my hearts content as I have no connection with the soap she appears in, nor do I know the actress playing her, but I have to be mindful of the edits I make to Samsung because I am associated with them as they're my employer.  I would strongly suggest though that you still change your username to prevent the conflict of interest.

What you can do is create the page in your own userspace first of all by creating a user subpage. That way you can create the article at your own pace and it will only be moved on to "live" Wikipedia once it is fully ready. To create your own subpage, see here. You can also consider requesting feedback on the article by asking at the talk page of a related Wikiproject or at the drawing board.

Good luck in creating your article. Any questions please feel free to ask me on my talk page!--5 albert square (talk) 20:26, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
