Speedy deletion of Gevin Giorbran
A tag has been placed on Gevin Giorbran requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. 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.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added a hangon template to an article. In order for an administrator to evaluate whether the article should be speedy deleted or not, we request that you provide a reasoning of why it should remain on the article's talk page.

Welcome
Welcome! 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:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect intellectual property rights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view when editing articles - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account being blocked from editing.

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. 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).

re: Gevin Giorbran I'll put the contents of the original article into a user sandbox User:Openartist/Gevin Giorbran. You can create the article and get it up to snuff there, and move it to the encyclopedia later. See WP:FIRST for further hints. -- Flyguy649 talk 18:33, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Actually, it really is a pure copy of http://everythingforever.com/author.htm, so I've deleted it again. -- Flyguy649 talk 18:49, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
