Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:College Unbound


A tag has been placed on Draft:College Unbound requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.collegeunbound.edu/apps/pages/history, https://www.acenet.edu/Documents/A-College-Unbound-Lessons-on-Innovation.pdf, and https://www.collegeunbound.edu/apps/pages/impact. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy 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 "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 deleted 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. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 16:56, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Recreating College Unbound article
Although your first creation has had an unfortunate and very short existence, I suspect that it should have an article. If you start at article for creation and find a number of independent and reliable sources such as this or this and then simply write it in your own words. Steer well clear of the College's own web site or anything affiliated to it except to confirm non-contentious details. Any copy and pasting will be picked up and it can lead to the whole article being deleted. Best of luck  Velella  Velella Talk 09:58, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
