Society for Socialist Studies
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Society for Socialist Studies, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://socialiststudies.ca/about.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 14:49, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Society for Socialist Studies


A tag has been placed on Society for Socialist Studies requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Gaijin42 (talk) 17:01, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

issues
The page has two issues, one it is copyrighted. This issue could possibly be cirumvented, but mere permission is not enough. The content must be released into the public domain. However, that still leaves the fact that an organizations own content is probalby not a neutral description of that organization. Secondly, the organization does not appear to have notability. Please read WP:NOTABILITY and WP:RS and see if you think you can meet these criteria. Let me know if you have further questions. Gaijin42 (talk) 17:30, 9 March 2012 (UTC)


 * actually, as reviewing admin,


 * 1) you must immediately either license the material according to WP:DCM or rewrite it. (the easiest way to license is to place a free license tag CC-BY=SA on your web page, as explained in DCM). This is absolutely essential. For the meantime, I've reduced it to a stub that doesn't violate copyright).
 * 2) You need 3rd party references to show the notability-- see WP:ORG. That it publishes a significant journal is enough to escape immediate deletion, but you need better than that to keep it.  DGG ( talk ) 19:41, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Society for Socialist Studies


The article Society for Socialist Studies has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No evidence of notability. No independent sources cited at all, and no independent reliable sources found on searching.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Multiple accounts?
Are you the same person as Portpass19? If so, why do you use more than one account, and do you have any more accounts? If you are not the same person, can you explain what your connection with that person is? JamesBWatson (talk) 12:30, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi again. I've always used the same Portpass19 account. I did realize that I had a different nickname before, but I've changed that back to Portpass19 to avoid any confusion. Thanks. Portpass19 (talk) 21:27, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Psychonaut. Regarding the copyrighted material, do you mean the text from the organization's website? Can't we use some text from the website if we reference it? Thanks. Portpass19 (talk) 21:26, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
