Hi, please explain how I can fix. I have not reposted the exact same article. I reworked it and ran it through various plagiarism filters and not one flagged it. The report is stating that I posted the same article but I have the original, and the reworked and would be happy to show the changes that were made. Additionally, this article was originally written by my client. Please let me know how I can fix this, thanks for your help!

Hi Singularity42,

Thanks for your review of the Cloud Services Brokerage page I've created. I see it's been nominated for a speedy deletion. I want to present my case here in an attempt to resurrect the page.

I have tried submitting the piece multiple times and each time have been flagged for copyright infringement. Each time I have been notified, I have reworked the article significantly. I would be happy to send along the original piece I posted and the new one with significant tracked changes in it provided I have an email to show those changes.

The article is not running through plagiarism filters and if it is not plagiarized, I don't understand how it could be due to copyright issues.

If you do see specific areas that are copyrighted, can you point out those areas so I can appropriately fix them.

Thanks for your help. I look forward to resolving this issue.

Hello, thanks for pointing me in that direction.

Comments on the section include: you need to rewrite from scratch, not by taking the text and modifying it. You must change not just the words, but the arrangement into sentences and the sequence of ideas. After you have done, go back and make sure that there is no phrase or 2 or more words that is the same except unavoidable things such as the name of the organisation. -The article has been rewritten. Can you please point to the specific area you are referring to?

Avoid copying from other sources also: the growth section is copied from the two references given. -It's taken as a quote because it is pulled directly from a report and as a result cannot be modified. I represented that by inserting it into quotations.

The capitalization in titles portion should be an easy fix.

Status and Advice
I deleted it again; not for copyvio (Duplicate Detector shows only isolated phrases) but because it's promotional. The two often go together. Additionally, it doesn't show notability, of the concept, it advocates for their advantages. Given that 2 of the 3 references are interviews with the president of someone offering the service,  and the the mentions the company prominently, it might be intended as promoting that company.

A Wikipedia article needs to show notability with 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. If you have such sources, it may be possible to rewrite the article; otherwise, it will not be possible to write an acceptable article.

If you can find them, and it might be possible, write like an encyclopedia article, not a press release--don't praise the concept say it is. Remember not to base the article on a web site, even your own  quite apart from copyright,  the tone will not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable.

Include only material that would be of interest to a general reader coming across the mention of the subject and wanting the sort of information that would be found in an encyclopedia. Do not include material that would be of interest only to those associated with the subject, or to prospective clients/purchasers/users--that sort of content is considered promotional.

It seems possible that you may have some conflict of interest. As a general rule, a suitable page will be best written by someone without Conflict of Interest; it's not impossible to do it properly with a conflict of interest or as a paid press agent, but it's relatively more difficult: you are automatically thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person will think in terms of what the public might wish to know. Marketers  think of products as a set of benefits, but on Wikipedia, products have to be described by their nature.

For further information see our general guides to writing articles, WP:PLAIN and WP:FIRST; see also our list of the things we don't do here, WP:NOT, and our practical guide to conflict of interest, WP:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide

And I just looked at your new article, Docker (Linux container engine), and I consider it advertising for the company, and the proof to be that it's intended as advertising is the paragraph devoted to what executives have joined the company, which is not information about the product. I've listed it for speedy deletion, but I am going to wait and see if some other admin agrees with me about it. Please use AfC for all further creations.  DGG ( talk ) 05:56, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
