Proposed deletion of The white stag


The article The white stag has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. In addition, Wikipedia users do not have a right to act like they "own" an article, as the disclaimer at the bottom attempts to assert.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TheLetterM (talk) 07:29, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of The white stag
Good morning & welcome to Wikipedia.

The above has been deleted as a copyright violation of this page which predates the Wikipedia article creation by 11 days. Since we do not verify user identities upon account creation, if you are the author of the source material and wish to allow its publication on Wikipedia, you must follow the process described in this document. Before you do that, however, a few additional remarks.
 * First and foremost, any material you post on Wikipedia is automatically released under the terms of both the GNU Free Documentation License v1.3+ and a Creative Commons-Attribution-Sharealike v3.0+ license. By releasing the material for Wikipedia, you accept that this release is permanent, cannot be retracted, and you agree that your contribution be modified or removed as is seen fit, and further re-used and re-distributed, even for commercial usage, without anything due to you but to credit the Wikipedia entry where this contribution is located.


 * Your release is irrevocable, and you cannot reserve any supplemental rights, as you did in your previous posting of the material


 * Beyond the licensing issue, be advised that a set of roleplaying rules you invented is not suitable for Wikipedia until it gets covered in the mainstream press - in more precise words, any topic must be covered by multiple independent so called reliable sources, be neutral in tone and in particular not self-promotional, or a list of rulesets. Indeed, Wikipedia cannot, and will not, serve as a means to promote your nascent ideas, it can only acknowledge them once they have been sufficiently remarked and commented upon by independent third parties.


 * Following this, and under the assumption you invented your ruleset on January this year, even if the copyright issue is solved, be aware that it is extremely unlikely that your ruleset currently passes our minimal inclusion criteria, and even if it did, the article would have to focus on the adoption and influence in RPG circles of the white stag rather than reproducing its rules.

That being said, while I understand that this may seem disheartening, if you wish to contribute to Wikipedia on other topics, WP:FIRST is an essay that explains in more depth what kind of qualities we are looking for in an article, and once you have familiarized yourself with it, we would be looking forward to your future contributions.

If you need any help, you can create a new section on your talk page and add helpme followed by your request below it, someone will be along shortly to assist you. Alternatively, you may also leave me a message on my talk page. Best regards, MLauba (talk) 10:52, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
