Speedy deletion nomination of Little Rock Campaign


A tag has been placed on Little Rock Campaign 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

Battle of Good's Farm
Hi Scarfaced Charley, I see that you recently created the new article Battle of Good's Farm. with references. However, the references in the article do not follow Wikipedia guidelines.

Edward D. Tracy
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Edward D. Tracy, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.hmdb.org/results.asp?County=Bibb+County&amp;State=Georgia.

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.

Japanese names
I restored the Isoroku Yamamoto article to the normal Western name order: surname last. This is the style for Wikipedia per MOS:JAPAN. Pre-Meiji Japanese names should have the surname first in that guideline, but not Yamamoto who is post-Meiji. Binksternet (talk) 00:56, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Frank Pando


The article Frank Pando has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Steamroller Assault (talk) 18:24, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Battle of Golan Heights (874 BCE)


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Battle of Golan Heights (874 BCE). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Golan Heights. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Golan Heights - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

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.

Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Sean ( Ask Me? ) 01:03, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Restoration of the Byzantine Empire
Hello! It is always nice to see new Byzantine articles, but I strongly urge you to read up more on the issue, because the article you created is rife with errors and over-generalizations. The Angeloi had nothing to do with the Nicaean Empire, Romania did not exist in the 13th century and the Palaiologoi had nothing to do with it, Theodore Doukas was the Despot of Epirus and not the Nicaean commander at Pelagonia, there was no siege of Constantinople in 1261, etc. Creating new articles is good, but not when they have to be rewritten wholesale to be accurate. Then they are worse than useless, because they cast a bad light on Wikipedia. Constantine  ✍  19:58, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of Battle of Michmash
Hey there. I have tagged Battle of Michmash, an article you have created, for speedy deletion because it is a copyright violation of http://www.sitedavis.com/michmash.html. I notice that some other articles you have created have been deleted for similar reasons (before you made this article), so I wish you would take some time to read and understand Wikipedia's policies on copyrighted content.

Copy-paste has a pretty good summary, and the policy itself is at WP:COPYOTHERS. Basically, for legal and ethical reasons, we cannot accept content that has been copied from or is a close paraphrasing of other works. Please keep this in mind when you make contributions in the future. Thanks, and happy editing. wctaiwan (talk) 12:57, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Google books referencing!
I'm noticing the same page cropping up again and again here, with only the phrase "tateoka doshun" being searched for in Google books.

This is generally not even linked to the article's subject. PLEASE STOP! Use a relevant phrase, find the correct book, note the page number, find the book on Amazon (click the link in the left had margin), get the information for the book, and fill in a citation template so that the reference actually makes some sense!

Here's a suitable template for you to copy, paste into the relevant place, and fill in all the correct details.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Battle of Ai.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Battle of Ai.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to 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 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.

File:Medicine Crow Apsaroke.jpg and more generally
I've deleted this file as a copyright violation. Although the original photo is indeed in the public domain the colourised version of it isn't as is shown by the copyright notice on the image. I also note that to date you've not replied to a single person on this talk page and haven't posted to any article talk page except to contest deletion. You also seem to have not taken notice of the many warnings above as (at least until recently) you appear to have carried on introducing copyright violations. You should not ignore all the messages here. If you don't understand them either post here or on the talk page of the person who posted the message. Continuing to not take any notice of these message will, unfortunately, see you blocked. Due to legal problems that could be caused if we violate copyright we take this issue very seriously and will, as a last resort, block someone from editing to stop them continuing to introduce copyright violations.

March 2012
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:27, 2 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Please take the opportunity of this block to read up on Wikipedia's policies regarding copying content from previously published sources.


 * Looking at the history of your contributions, you have been liberal in doing this, copying from both public domain and copyright protected publications. Except for brief and clearly marked quotations, you can never do the latter. The former, you may, but you are required to note that you are copying from the public domain source in compliance with Plagiarism. For instance, it would have been fine for you to copy Adley H. Gladden, but you did not credit your public domain source (another contributor cleaned up after you). It's also okay for you to copy content from on Wikipedia article to another, as you have done several times, but because Wikipedia's articles are no more public domain than those of the Texas Historical Society, you are violating copyright if you do so without credit.


 * I have opened a contributor copyright investigation to invite community assistance in properly attributing content we may retain and removing any we may not. That investigation is listed at Contributor copyright investigations/Scarfaced Charley.


 * Please review Copy-paste. Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously, and if you persist in violating copyright policies after your block expires, your account may be blocked indefinitely. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:46, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

I've extended the duration of your block to indefinite in light of the seriousness of the copyright violations which have been found as part of the contributor copyright investigation and the large number of warnings you ignored. You may appeal the block using the method noted above if you wish. Your assistance in identifying the copyright violations you added would be very helpful, and is likely to be a precondition to any unblock request being successful.

Proposed deletion of Battle of Salman Pak


The article Battle of Salman Pak has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:

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.

File source problem with File:Chief Black Horse.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Chief Black Horse.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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. mattbr 15:49, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
