Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Thomas Lehrman, and it appears to include material copied directly from https://masterstreet.com/home/team.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:56, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Thomas Lehrman


A tag has been placed on Thomas Lehrman 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://masterstreet.com/home/team. 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.

Status and Advice
As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article again. WP defines copyvio to include Close paraphrase.

You must  rewrite   from scratch, changing not just the words, but the arrangement into sentences and the sequence of ideas. This is best done by not having the original in front of you, but writing as if you were telling someone who asked you who the person is, and then going back to fill in exact dates and the like. I've prevented recreation of the article for 3 days to give you time to do it properly.

When you do it, be sure to also show notability; as it was, the article would almost certainly be listed for possible for deletion as not showing sufficient importance. Whether or not we should, in practice we do not automatically assume the notability of CEOs. I work rather frequently on this type of article, so perhaps I can tell you more specifically what is needed. For notability, an article needs references providing substantial coverage from  3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. The problem here is that despite the apparently impressive references, most of them do not talk about him, or talk about him only in a peripheral way, or possibly appear to be based on press releases, or just repeat his own information about himself. This is often a problem with executives of organizations: separating their notability from the notability of the firm they led or founded. In some fields, including services such as consulting, it may sometimes be particularly hard to separate this, as the success of the business usually depends on the reputation of the principals.

In this instance, the subject has played a major role in two different firms; the first of them is certainly notable; I am not sure about the other, as the references for it seem to have the same deficiencies as noted above: they are almost all either PR or peripheral, I would strongly advise concentrating on his role in GersonLehman rather than Master Street. You are welcome to do the best you can next week; if you avoid copyvio, and I still doubt the adequacy of the sources, I will send it for a deletion discussion and the community will decide.

If you need any assistance, please ask  directly  on   my user talk page,  and I'll respond either there or on your talk page in a day or two.  DGG ( talk ) 20:29, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of MasterStreet


A tag has been placed on MasterStreet 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 web content, 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, you can place a request here. Bisswajit  08:36, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
