Proposed deletion of Ellwood Epps


The article Ellwood Epps has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one.

Ellwood epps
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Ellwood epps, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://deletionpedia.org/en/Ellwood_Epps.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken 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.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:26, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ellwood Epps


A tag has been placed on Ellwood Epps, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate,. Under the specified criteria, where a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely 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. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

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 also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 01:49, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 05:20, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Help me!
I am trying to understand how to contest the speedy deletion of the article Ellwood Epps, which I contributed yesterday. I had contributed this article about 6 months ago, and it was deleted due to lack of references. Yesterday I put it back up, with 5 references, and it was deleted promptly. How do I go about reposting it? Thanks for any suggestions.

 * The page on Epps was deleted after this deletion discussion. By simply recreating the page you did not significantly alter the page to meet the concerns expressed at the AFD, thus it was re-deleted as G4. If you wish to contest the deletion, you can do so at WP:DRV, though personally I think this would be a waste of time. You are welcome to create a draft using the Article Wizard, which will be reviewed and commented on by experienced editors. They will be able to give feedback on what needs to change to meet the criteria set out in the Golden Rule. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 19:08, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:At Vergil Reality, June 2011 Montréal (photo by Etienne Mangonaux).jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:23, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
