Speedy deletion nomination of Mark braund


A tag has been placed on Mark braund requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.investegate.co.uk/article.aspx?id=201103210700102676D. 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. 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 "Click here to 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.

Copyvio
Hey, just wanted to explain a little. We don't accept copyvio of any sort. The problem is that in order to even begin to use the material you'd have to get the original copyright holders of the work to submit a ticket to ORTS that essentially gives up all right to the content as "fair use". Even at that point we can't have a cut and paste of the content since things of this nature are inherently promotional in tone. Phrases such as "Braund is an experienced recruitment executive, with over 27 years in the industry." are considered to be promotional and are phrased to sell him to the potential reader. That's fine on a press release, but not on Wikipedia.

I noticed that in general he doesn't seem to have any notability outside of the company he currently works for. You asserted on the article that he's worked for multiple companies and been successful, but success does not equate out to notability. It can sometimes make it more likely that someone will gain coverage, but it's never a guarantee. I've redirected him to the company since that's the norm for companies. On a side note, the article for the company looks kind of scanty itself. I'll try to find sources, but if I can't then I'll have to nominate it for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of InterQuest Group


A tag has been placed on InterQuest Group, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of 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 this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   09:21, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
