Spam and copyright
First, to include text from other places on the internet, you need to release the copyright on that text or prove that you have the right to use it. This page explains more on this subject.

Secondly, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not a place to advertise your company. We don't want an article about your company unless it is very famous and you can cite a couple of non-trivial, third-party reliable sources mentioning your company as being or doing something particularly notable.

Until you have both the copyright clearance and the citations, please don't recreate the article. Also, when you do have it, please note that it is a conflict of interest for you to create it yourself.  RΞDVΞRS ✖  ЯΞVΞЯSΞ  16:01, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Pool3.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Pool3.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.  RΞDVΞRS ✖  ЯΞVΞЯSΞ  16:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Pool3.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Pool3.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self-no-disclaimers tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  RΞDVΞRS ✖  ЯΞVΞЯSΞ  16:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
