User talk:Sduggan217

I have content provided by email from the individual I am writing about. How do I cite that so my page does not get removed?


 * Hello, any information that is added to Wikipedia must be cited from a reliable source and unfortunately a personal e-mail would not be appropriate in this case. Editors should be especially careful when adding information to articles regarding living persons, as per the policy at WP:BLP. You will probably find that your page is being removed for exactly this reason. I'm sorry if this is not the answer you were looking for, but if you would like any further help please don't hesistate to visit my talk-page or IRC.

Speedy deletion nomination of Keith Wright (Food for the Hungry)


A tag has been placed on Keith Wright (Food for the Hungry) 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 a person or group of people, 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.  Acroterion   (talk)   17:24, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of David Evans (Food for the Hungry)


A tag has been placed on David Evans (Food for the Hungry) 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. 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 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. Pam D  22:43, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Repeated copyright violations
An earlier version of David Evans (Food for the Hungry) was deleted because you had created it by copying copright material from other sources. It appears that you have re-created the article and done the same thing again. Please read the notice above: Wikipedia does not allow material to be copied illegally into Wikipedia articles. Doing so is disruptive to the encyclopedia. Please note this, and stop. Thank you. Pam D  22:43, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of David Evans (administrator)


The article David Evans (administrator) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No independent notability from Food for the Hungry - no in-depth coverage in independent, reliable sources, does not meet WP:GNG."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. —Ganesha811 (talk) 15:49, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
