Speedy deletion nomination of Action of 17 August 1779


A tag has been placed on Action of 17 August 1779 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 a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.thenrg.org/resources/The_Journal/NRJ%2059-4%20Full%20Version.pdf. 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 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 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 "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. — Diannaa (talk) 20:59, 15 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Apologies for not noticing that, I've restored the article. However if you copy content from one article to another you must make sure you attribute the source of the content. If you don't do this then it is technically both copyright violation and plagiarism, although it's not the sort of thing that would result in deletion.  Hut 8.5  20:56, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

What happened?
Hey. What's up? No longer here I see or have we moved onto someone else? Shire Lord (talk) 13:00, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
