Proposed deletion of Niels Christian Hvidt


The article Niels Christian Hvidt has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one.  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  12:39, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Note that your website is not an independent source, although it can be used for uncontroversial detail. Text shouldn't be copied from it unless it's explicitly public domain text  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  13:56, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for latest comment. I have not added hvidt.com as a reference to bolster any claim but merely as a reference for people to have more information. Would you mind taking away the notice so it can stay back clean? Regards, NielsNchvidt (talk) 14:56, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Please don't remove tags yourself without addressing the issues. As far as I can see, you haven't yet added references or wikilinks. See Pamela C. Rasmussen as a biographical article. You don't need that level of detail or referencing, just to give you an idea of layout  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:03, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

User and talk pages are not appropriate for draft articles, I'll move the text here. Note that there shouldn't be any url links in the text, only wikilinks. Urls should only appear in the References or External links sections  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:10, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Sounds fine - thanks. - Jim just to get this right - you want me to take out all those URL's I took ages to insert and put them at the bottom of the page instead? Nchvidt (talk) 15:16, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * no, they just need reformatting, preferably with a description to make them more intelligible than a bare url. Reformat them as, and the   I've added at the bottom will generate the list for you.  Jimfbleak  -  talk to me?  15:21, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Just for the avoidance of doubt, I'm treating the sandbox as the substantive version. I've changed some of the non-referencing urls, like Odense and the Universities, to wikilinks, there are probably more  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:28, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Jim, you are great - thanks. You are very much into this - I am only beginning. Perhaps should never have started! Well, what you're saying is that I must exchange the code and it will do it pretty easily?Nchvidt (talk) 15:30, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * I've requested speedy deletion of the main article, as having been copied verbatim from the professor's website. If the sandbox version is substantively similar there may be issues there, too. JNW (talk) 15:34, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Had no idea this was not permitted. I do not want to have different texts about myself. If there is a way as I own www.hvidt.com from were it is sourced, let me know, otherwise we'll just delete it. I don't have much more time to spend. Regards, NielsNchvidt (talk) 15:37, 17 February 2014 (UTC)


 * looks like you have more serious problem to address. Remember that you can't copy from any explicitly non-PD website, including your own. Unless you are prepared to place a notice on your website making the text PD, it;s probably not worth the time required to establish permission for use here  Jimfbleak  -  talk to me?  15:41, 17 February 2014 (UTC)'

Speedy deletion nomination of Niels Christian Hvidt


A tag has been placed on Niels Christian Hvidt 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 http://www.hvidt.com/default.asp?page=cv&subpage=default&CatHead=45. 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. JNW (talk) 15:31, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
