Robyn Griggs Lawrence
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Robyn Griggs Lawrence, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.naturalhomemagazine.com/meet-the-natural-home-team.aspx. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites 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.)

This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:35, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Robyn Griggs Lawrence
A tag has been placed on Robyn Griggs Lawrence 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 clear 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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website 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 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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Robyn Griggs Lawrence, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page.

Copyright
You must not post copyright material in Wikipedia. On every edit screen it says "Please do not copy and paste from copyrighted websites" and "Content that violates any copyrights will be deleted." If you want to copy material in, you must follow the procedure explained in the warning notices: Donating copyrighted materials if you are yourself the copyright owner, Requesting copyright permission if someone else is.  Teapot  george Talk  22:13, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I understand the copyright rules on our Web sites. We reserve the right to reprint any copyrighted material we own in any way we choose because we wrote it and we own it.

By making copyrighted material available on Wikipedia (under a creative commons license), you are essentially giving permission to remix, reuse, and repurpose the content for any purpose. In other words, publication on wikipedia is not just "reprinting", it is giving wikipedia a non-exclusive license to use the content and make it available to anyone else under the same terms, such that the original copyright has essentially no effect. Donating copyrighted materials applies. (I can create a new magazine and re-use any content from Wikipedia, including your contributions.) rhyre (talk) 15:12, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Hank Will.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Hank Will.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 file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.  Teapot  george Talk  23:15, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Robyn Lawrence.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Robyn Lawrence.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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, 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 files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 01:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Tim Song (talk) 01:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bryan Welch


A tag has been placed on Bryan Welch requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.  Dennis The Tiger  (Rawr and stuff) 17:47, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
